Set within an acre of immaculate gardens, this charming venue is perfect for the discerning couple who wish to have their wedding ceremony, photography sessions and reception. This is certainly one of Christchurch's most romantic venues.

Here you have a number of areas to choose for garden ceremonies with expansive lawns and established trees as backdrops. The verandah provides a 30sq metre awning to cope with possible inclement weather. Or use the verandah as your reception venue for a enchanting garden setting.

The formal dining and lounge rooms of the homestead offers a more traditional setting for smaller receptions or for those with a larger guest list, a dream-come-true silk lined marquee is set in the grounds during summer.
