Glengallan Homestead and Heritage Centre

boom, gloom, return from ruin

Glengallan is not just any old house. Uninhabited for more than half its lifetime, it remains frozen in time. Located near Warwick in South East Queensland, Glengallan is one of the few remaining examples of a substantial 19th century country house in Queensland.

Drawing Room

Glengallan today is a tribute not only to its visionary builder and to 19th Century craftsmen but also to the 21st Century team that brought it back to life through this delicately balanced restoration that enables the visitor to experience the best and the worst of its times.

Eliza's opens at Glengallan
The lady of the house would be pleasantly surprised to know the modern-day equivalent of the Glengallan kitchen is being named after her. Eliza's at Glengallan honours Eliza Charlotte Deuchar, wife of John Deuchar who built the sandstone mansion in 1867.
With a change of management at Glengallan Heritage Centre, the Trust has moved quickly to revamp the coffee shop which is now open on Saturdays and Sundays 10am to 4pm and for mid-week group tours and functions by arrangement.

The new menu includes traditional fare such as Devonshire tea, damper with golden syrup, lamb shanks and shepherd's pie as well as popular coffee shop lines lasagne and quiche.

Eliza Deuchar already has a wine named after her, the Chardonnay Verdelho "Eliza D" from the range of Glengallan labels marketed through the cellar door partnership with Hidden Creek Wines of Ballandean.

Location
Glengallan Homestead and Heritage Centre is on the New England Highway, 18.515km north of Warwick. For directions, please see the map.

Warwick Shire
