Gledswood Homestead & Winery, High Tea, History & Accommodation
The homestead was given as a gift to Chisholm’s son and a new wife who were descendants of the region’s farming pioneers, the Macarthurs. The homestead remained in the family’s hands all through to 1940. Today, the property boasts an Old Coach House, a cottage, as well as the homestead itself. All of these structures were built using local sandstone with labour from the convicts.
