Duntryleague with Lodge, Park, Gates and former Stables, Woodward St, Orange, NSW, Australia, Victorian heritage estate with lodge, gates and former stables in Orange, Australia.
Duntryleague is a Victorian Filigree mansion built between 1875 and 1890, featuring ornate cast-iron lacework, high ceilings, stained glass windows, and extensive landscaped grounds with mature exotic trees.
Originally constructed by Irish merchant James Dalton, the estate served as a private residence, civic gathering place, and World War II convalescent hospital before becoming Orange Golf Club in the 1930s.
The mansion displays Irish heritage through room names referencing Irish locations and a papal knight stained glass window, reflecting the colonial Australian lifestyle of affluent 19th-century families.
The heritage-listed site now operates as Orange Golf Club with guesthouse accommodation, offering mansion suites overlooking the golf course and Margaret Dalton Lodge for family groups.
The estate features approximately 15,000 tree plantings including Atlantic cedars, Japanese maples, and coastal redwoods, creating one of central NSW's most diverse botanical collections.
