Guided Tour of Langley Estate

A guided tour of Bendigo's iconic Langley Estate mansion, chapel and gardens: a goldfields landmark since 1904.

Come and experience the ‘Langley Magic’ with a guided tour of Bendigo’s historic Langley Estate by the owners themselves, Thomas and Simone Heywood.

The Langley Hall mansion was built on the grandest scale in 1904 as the Bishop’s Palace for Henry Langley, the first Anglican Bishop of Bendigo; the internal floor space alone covers over a quarter of an acre. The estate also houses the 1873 Lauriston Chapel, now a 100-seat concert room complete with its own newly installed 1875 pipe organ, as well as Langley Manor and extensive landscaped gardens.

The estate has a long, varied and fascinating history: from the early Bishops (1904-1919) to over 800 ANZACs recovering from Gallipoli (1919-1926), from Governors-General, Premiers and other dignitaries who have visited and stayed at Langley, to the joie de vivre of the 1,500 infants who lived here during the estate’s time as a Toddlers’ Home (1932-1979). The walls can’t talk – but your tour guide Thomas Heywood can – on this unmissable tour!
