Looks as though it is gone ! we have another idea for a cache, sory to all who could not find it ! thanx to those who did
We couldn't find it either although we are sure we were looking in the right area.
after looking around where it should have been, i came to relise that the cache was M.I.A missing in action. there was signs of where it should been but no cache.
The old place certainly still looks as grand as it would have all those years ago when it was built. Once we had finished looking at the grand old place we got down to the business of searching for the cache, we looked at gz at least 3 times before Mrs stilllookin came away with the goods as Mr stilllookin had to resort to asking for a hint.

Found this one while competing in the Bathurst 24 Hour Event. Found at 16:26. Was a bit nervous about the cameras and the car that sped down the drive when we were leaving.
Thanks Routers for the cache.

Not only did I have to smile for the cameras while retrieving the cache, I had to wait for the parting of the cows over a good km of road, see pics, MOOOOOOO.
PS - Amazing house!

Found the spot and seen the security cameras, not sure if anyone was watching so i signed the log and got out of there.
Thanks.
Thanks.
Ha - loved the security camera pointing directly at GZ! I wonder what the guards must think when they see us searching there? Anyways, I smiled and waved. Luckily I found the cache quickly - I didn't really want a tap on the shoulder. TNLN, Thanks Scenic Routers.
We pass here regularly, going from home to Mr G's parents so it was time to stop and grab a few caches along the way. A good spot to visit, would love to look inside the house! SLTFTC.
I actually gave this a quick try this time last year, just after dark, but failed miserably. This year, in the light, it presented no problem. Great house nearby. Thanks for the cache.
found it real easy but mr router did you put the b#@*!y ant nest there as well
Our family legend had it that Mr Stewart stood at the top of that hill on the right and said, "All I see, I own." and so he did. Part two of the family legend says his body is inside that spire on the end of the hill, still keeping an eye on his domain. Thanks scenic Routers.
I have heard of this place lots of times, but was amased how nice it was when I arrived. Grabbed the cache just in time as the owners arrived as I was walking towards the car (And of course I was parked fair smack in the middle of the driveway!)
Found during the Hill End 4WDing weekend.
I toured this place many years ago - very interesting.

Continued caching after the event with Pesky, Cheese, Odie McPodie and Jeep Dog. Great cache!
This place looks awesome, pity it wasn't open for a tour when we swung by after the 4x4 event cache weekend.
Took a wrong turn so took a while to find the spot was interesting to see, had never been here before, searched for a while and found the cache, was dry but smudges, left a message and moved on.
Found as one of 32 succesful finds and 2 DNF attempts this weekend.
excelent weekend except for the 15 hour delay due to car troubles,and spending the night in the repair yard. but that is another story.
Left signature, took only good memories

We were looking for this mansion at a previous cache that we had just completed and couldn't see it any where, now we know why. We can only imagine what it must have been like in it's heyday and how long it would have taken to build. Oh yeah, the cache it was found easily after one false start
Thanks Scenic routers for the cache and solving the mystery

You'd definitely need some hired help at this place. Very impressive. Very nice tree lined road leading to the cache. Found cache easily. Thanks Scenic routers.
Drats the gates were locked. Nice looking place to live up on the hill. Cache took a while to find, thank heavens for clues!
Nearly got muggled by the owner who came down and shared some history with us. Beautiful place Thanks SR
Thanks Scenic Routers ... another nice easy find..When we arrived there the gates were closed...
Found it on the Bidgee Caching Bathurst Tour.
Last one for the night for us, was around 10.30pm. Took a little looking as the torches were dead.

2nd last for the nite on the way back in.
Checked out the entrance & then off to nab the goods and get out of the lite rain. Apparently it poured in town & we missed it completely.

Nice drive and an impressive home at the top of the hill - would have been great to have been a governor in those days! Found the cache with a bit of searching - we were a bit stumped at first! Thanks Scenic Routers.
Mr S'downer found this one as I am lagging behind on these a little bit just can't get the hand of them. Will have to come back when gates opened, what an amazing place. Oh to be back in its glory days for a visit. SL Thanks
