Below stairs the stone kitchen, servants’ quarters and freshwater well are reminiscent of times very different to today.
Activities
Lindesay is the perfect venue for weddings and other special occasions. A marquee installed over its flagged stone patio provides all-weather protection, with full views across manicured lawns to Sydney Harbour and covered access to the house.
