Venue Testimonials
We could not have imagined a more perfect venue for our wedding last month, everything truly exceeded our expectations! The property has an amazing layout and is extremely well kept. There are several different locations throughout the property to hold your ceremony as well as lots of options for photographs.

The Woodhouse is one of my favourite wedding venues in the Hunter Valley area. Their new reception space is stunning and provides a great option for couples looking for something different to the typical barrel-room feel. The ability to stay onsite, along with hosting every part of a wedding (ceremony, photos, reception) means less time driving and more time enjoying the day.

The Woodhouse Wollombi is the most stunning, breathtaking location I could’ve ever imagined for our wedding day. From start to finish we were welcomed with open arms. The team made our fairytale wedding come to life - with helpful hints and experienced ideas we knew it was going to be a day to remember.
