Hambledon Cottage

Hambledon Cottage is a heritage-listed colonial cottage museum at 63 Hassall Street, Harris Park in Parramatta, New South Wales. Built between 1821 and 1824 for pastoralist John Macarthur to house his family while Elizabeth Farm was extended, it is one of Australia's oldest surviving colonial residences. Operated by the Parramatta and District Historical Society, the cottage displays period furnishings, exhibits on early colonial life, and is set within a heritage garden.

Visitors can expect a small single-storey colonial Georgian cottage set in a cottage garden in suburban Harris Park. Inside, rooms are furnished to reflect early 19th-century colonial domestic life with period furniture, textiles, ceramics and historical displays managed by the Parramatta and District Historical Society. Guided tours explain the Macarthur family association and early Parramatta settlement. The site includes a garden, small gift shop and interpretive exhibits; the visit is low-key, indoor and garden-based.
