Where Our Stories meet

Step into our story — and make it part of yours. From the creak of the original wool shed floorboards to the colourful retro flair of our 1970s homestead, every corner of our venues carries the spirit of generations. Surrounded by native gardens and open farmland, it’s the perfect place to celebrate, gather, and unwind in true rural style.

Why Choose Our Farm

What Makes Us Different

As a private farm wedding venue, we offer space, freedom, and flexibility you won’t find at traditional venues.

Many venues come with strict rules, fixed suppliers, and limited flexibility. Our farm offers something different — a relaxed, private setting where you’re free to celebrate your way, surrounded by nature, family, and space to make it truly yours.

Testimonials

"We attended an absolutely gorgeous wedding at the farm and would highly recommend it as venue for your special day. The wedding was in October and the weather was not on our side, but that did not stop the celebrations. In fact it only added to the atmospheric scenery that utilises so well. It’s romantic backdrop has led to some of my favourite wedding photos! The woolshed is like a rustic tardis, humble from the outside and bursting with beauty and everything you could need on your special occasion. From space for caterers, dancing, the ceremony to even having a fully working bathroom attached, the hosts really have thought of everything. I had the privilege of also being able to stay onsite at the incredibly well looked after homestead. So convenient for getting ready on the day, I would definitely recommend including this in your booking. We loved our experience at the farm and I hope to be back at this venue again soon!"

    "I recently attended a wedding at the Woolshed. It was the perfect setting to see my close friends get married, it has everything you need plus it’s steeped in the farms history. I would recommend to anyone looking at getting married."

      Sara Dunlop

      "As a marriage celebrant, I have the pleasure of working at different venues, and this one was truly outstanding. The setting was perfect in every way—authentically New Zealand, beautifully decorated, and thoughtfully designed. When the weather unexpectedly turned, the indoor option was seamless and just as stunning, providing a warm and welcoming atmosphere without missing a beat. An excellent venue that delivers both beauty and flexibility, and one I would highly recommend to couples and fellow celebrants alike."

        Tania Davis
