3 Best Landmarks in Bathurst NSW

A beautiful mansion built in the mid 19th century. I was fortunate to visit on the annual Scottish Day. It was fabulous with lone pipers, a pipe band, singers and dancers. The house itself is fascinating and nearly every room was open. I will visit again.

This magnificent estate is well worth a visit. So much to see in so many painstakingly restored rooms. From the massive ballroom to the hundreds of authentic furniture pieces and a bewildering number of fireplaces. The grounds are also a sight to behold with all the lawns, gardens, stables, blacksmith quarters and other outbuildings. Friendly and helpful staff to answer all questions on the history of the place. Highly recommend at least a three hour visit.

Very nice area with a vibrant house. The owner family still lives there and the people still work there as part of daily errands. So many exciting heritage and nostalgic items around the house and nice car collection.

A little treasure. Important place to visit to learn about a time when Australian politics was just a bit different than today. This was the humble home of Ben Chifley all through his time as Prime Minister, not The Lodge! Reminds me of my grandparents home, with the original appliances. Great your guide - so very informative and an obvious passion for preserving an important landmark.

Surprisingly excellent one hour experience visiting a piece of Australia’s history - we learnt so much about former PM Ben Chifley and his wife Elizabeth, the way they lived and his contribution as leader. Our guide Lynette was very knowledgeable and engaging. We loved the rare opportunity to play a pianola in the lounge room. Highly recommended for adults and children alike.

Excellent museum. Great interpretive displays in this historic home with many period features. Very informative and helpful guides. Put aside a couple of hours to really take in the history of one of our great Prime Ministers.

My girlfriend and I visited this beautiful home over the recent June long weekend - we loved it! It was so interesting walking through the home because it is so well maintained, it's like walking into a time machine and coming out in the early 1900's! I love art and architecture and if you do to you'll love your visit.The guides are very friendly and knowledgeable and it was so interesting learning how the home and Miss Traill were so closely linked to the growth of the Bathurst area. I would definitely recommend a visit to Miss Traill's House to anyone visiting Bathurst.

Went to Darkstories: Haunted immersive theatre show there and it was absolutely amazing so fantastic can't praise them enough 110/10.. The house itself was so great to look though it was like a step back in time would definitely recommend a visit to this beautiful location and alot of old artifacts to look at.

Well presented and very interesting historic residence. The volunteer guides were welcoming and shared their time and knowledge generously.
