Bella VistaFarm Park

Set on a prominent hilltop across 20 hectares of rural landscape at Elizabeth Macarthur Drive, this is an intact historic farm complex established in the late 1700s. A two-storey homestead, a Bunya Pine lined driveway and various farm outbuildings survive as a link to some of Australia's earliest rural development and its first European settlers. The property passed into the ownership of The Hills Shire Council in 1998, which has adopted a Conservation Management Plan guiding its restoration. The surrounding grounds are open to the public, with walking tracks, and dogs are welcome on-leash.
