Lanyon Homestead, Canberra

Lanyon Homestead lies at the foot of the Brindabella Ranges and is one of Australia’s premier historic properties. The precinct’s centrepiece, the 1850’s Homestead, has been lovingly restored and furnished with a cafe in one of the outbuildings. The cafe has outdoor seating and feels genuinely rural, even though the Canberra suburbs finish only about five minutes drive from the homestead.
