About Rocklea Farm
Rocklea Farm is an 80-acre property on Friend in Hand Road at Stonehaven, in the Moorabool Valley west of Geelong. The farm dates from the 1850s and played a part in the district's wool trade, and it still works as a farm alongside its events business. The old woolshed has been rebuilt as a timber-and-iron barn with a dance floor and long dining tables. Outside are a front bar and courtyard, manicured lawns, a large tree used for ceremonies, sunset paddocks and fire pits for the evening. Seated events take between 20 and 130 guests, and cocktail-style events take between 20 and 150. A permanent undercover marquee in the garden seats 100, so ceremonies and speeches can move under cover if the weather turns. The venue runs as a bring-your-own setup. Hosts choose their own caterers, food trucks, entertainment and drinks, or work from the farm's list of recommended suppliers, and an in-house bar service is available as an option. Every booking includes planning meetings, a coordinator on the day and a night manager, plus a long list of furniture and equipment. Packages run from two hours for a micro wedding or small event up to eight hours for a full wedding. Besides weddings, the farm hosts engagement parties, corporate events, team-building days, Christmas functions, birthdays and anniversaries. Ten bell tents on site let some guests stay the night.
