THE COTTAGE VINEYARD is an unforgettable backdrop for ceremonies. Set on the edge of our Shiraz vineyards, this outdoor location overlooks the bush covered valley and soaring mountains of our 5th-generation estate. THE PAVILION is a beautiful wet-weather ceremony location that also offers an open-air dining area. Purpose built, the Pavilion is set amongst the poplar trees and overlooks the flowing creek below. THE WINE CELLAR offers an indoor, industrial-chic event space that can be styled to suit all celebrations. A converted warehouse, The Wine Cellar features 22-foot high ceilings with exposed steel beams, a barrel lined wall and handcrafted elephant doors, opening onto The Grove. From simple table vases to hanging floral installations, this is the perfect setting to create your beautifully personalised wedding.
