Join the current owners of Combewood on a tour of this fine example of a Queen Anne style house, a rarity in the Penrith area. Built in 1890 for Francis Henry Woodriff on land granted to naval officer Captain Daniel Woodriff by Governor King it has been privately owned by eight generations of the original owner. Hear about the social history of Combewood, which exemplifies the lifestyle typical of wealthy families in the region.
Enjoy morning tea in the gardens and explore the remnants of an orchard and old stables. There are relics of an aviary and pergola located here, and plantings of olive, and stone fruits to the South of the Property. After the house tour, the Nepean Archeology Society will lead guests around the museum and extensive historical collection located in the former stables.
