Why locals recommend it
One of Sydney’s remaining 19th century mansions, this feels like a country estate in the middle of the city, surrounded by period-style gardens and wooded grounds. The sprawling parkland has been restored by the Sydney Living Museum, so the plants are faithful to when it was originally created. Plus, there are harbour views, chickens, a goat—and free entry! To bring your experience to another level, take High Tea in the Vaucluse House Tearooms. Surrounded by beautiful architecture and looking onto the gardens, the teas are at 10 am Wednesday through Sunday. Be sure to reserve ahead.
Tips from locals
Within a four minute walk of Fitzwilliam Rd. Stroll amongst the historic gardens of historic Vaucluse House and have lunch at the fully licensed restaurant .
Lovely old house that gives you a great feel for how people lived here in that time. Very nice setting and cafe. Delightful harbour beach across the road.
One of Sydney's earliest houses the National Trust have restored the home & gardens to how they were originally. There is also lovely tea rooms and harbour walk
