The Yaralla Estate at Concord West, Sydney, is a substantially intact example of a large Edwardian private residential estate. Yaralla was developed by the Walker family between 1848 and 1937 as a farm, pleasure garden, residence and one of Sydney’s premiere social destinations. You can see it and learn about it on our Open Day.

We have arranged with the Yaralla’s custodian (NSW Health) for parking near the inner gates and access to the extensive grounds and gardens (37 ha) between 9:30am and 3:00pm. You can enter the Dairy, Squash Court and the Stable buildings#, see our photo displays of Yaralla and its personalities, purchase books about Yaralla and the Walkers and enjoy an excellent Devonshire Tea of homemade scones served in the Dairy. Our knowledgeable guides lead tours of the grounds and buildings# starting at 10am. As you tour the site you’ll hear of its history, and fascinating stories of the people who lived in, worked at and visited it. Tours start from the Dairy and take about 75 minutes. We suggest that you wear a hat and comfortable shoes as the tour route is about 1.5km, some of which is over uneven ground. Last tour 1:30pm. Picnicking and photography encouraged. Yaralla is NSW Heritage listed.

Booking is essential as the tours sell out quickly.

#Not the mansion, it is used as a residential health facility.
