Pioneer Drive, Blackbutt, NSW 2529 Australia

Enjoy uninterrupted views over Shellharbour, Lake Illawarra and the Pacific Ocean from Carmody’s Lookout. The park has heritage significance as the site of Wentworth Cottage, the home of D’Arcy Wentworth, who was one of Shellharbour’s most well known pioneers.

In 1914 the cottage was bought by John Carmody whose family resided in the homestead for most of the last century. The park now features two mazes which occupy the site of the former cottage which was demolished in 1978, as well as a children's playground.
