We also have several picturesque sites that can be hired for photography and film shoots. The National Trust offers competitive rates for some of the most unique historic wedding venues in NSW. Whether you’re looking for private event venues in Sydney, or picturesque garden wedding venues, our outdoor and indoor venues are among the best in NSW.

Perfect Wedding Venue Choice! Highly Recommend!

We hosted our wedding reception here and have nothing but praise for it as a venue! The whole process was very easy and the end result on the day was incredible. The food was delicious, staff were very helpful and it was beautiful. Would definitely recommend as a wedding venue!

Rustic Elegance: Wedding Venue Review

Firstly, the location has a wonderfully warm, rustic feel. Their high tea is delicious, dainty, and almost luxurious for the price point. Add to that lovely, accommodating staff with impeccable hospitality training, and you end up with the best special event experience one could ever ask for. Thank you for having us for our wedding reception, baby shower, and daughter's first birthday!

Perfect Wedding Day at XYZ Venue

We held our wedding and reception at this venue and we could not have been any happier. We were unlucky enough to have had to reschedule several times over the past two years due to the pandemic. Martin and the team were nothing but accomodating and helpful. There are many beautiful spots we could choose for the ceremony and it was set up beautifully with care and attention.
