Overview

Dating from 1816, Cadman's Cottage is one of the oldest surviving residential buildings in Sydney. It is named after John Cadman who was transported on the Barwell in 1798 for stealing a horse but by 1827, had risen to become Government Coxswain. The Center has a wide range of tourist information and takes bookings for both the harbor islands administered by the NSW National Parks & Wildlife Service, as well as associated sites like the Quarantine Station, Botany Bay National Park North and Nielsen Park. Entry is free.
