Lonely Planet review for Elizabeth Farm

Elizabeth Farm contains part of Australia’s oldest surviving European home (1793), a lovely homestead built by renegade pastoralist and rum trader John Macarthur. Macarthur is heralded as the founder of Australia's wool industry; he was a ruthless capitalist whose politicking made him immensely wealthy and a thorn in the side of successive governors. his home is now a hands-on museum – recline on the furniture and thumb voyeuristically through Elizabeth Macarthur’s letters.
