About The Woodhouse Wollombi
The Woodhouse Wollombi is a family-owned wedding venue inside Redwood Park, a 100-acre property on Paynes Crossing Road about 3.5km from Wollombi village, at the southern entry to Hunter wine country. The owners have planted more than 9,500 trees around a central lake since buying the land, and each wedding has exclusive use of the grounds, so there are no other couples or outside guests on the day. The reception is held in The Woodhouse itself, a purpose-built timber hall with 7m ceilings, 4m windows over the gardens, a freestanding fireplace and a bar that serves both inside and out. It seats up to 150 for dinner. Big doors open to a courtyard, a firepit with built-in lounge seating and a large undercover dance floor strung with fairy lights, which also serves as the wet-weather ceremony spot. Above the lake, a vine-covered terrace with its own bar handles post-ceremony drinks and can seat 60 for a smaller outdoor reception. Couples choose from five ceremony settings, including The Willows by the water and an Infinity Lawn. Fennel & Co is the exclusive caterer, cooking seasonal menus from local produce. The venue is not BYO; drinks run as packages charged per guest by the hour, or on consumption up to a limit you set, and guests can buy spirits and cocktails at the bar. A commercial sound and PA system is installed, an event manager supervises the day, and functions end by 11pm. Up to 33 guests can stay on the estate across The Barnstay, The Soho Suite and eight off-grid eco suites.

How many guests does The Woodhouse hold?
The reception hall seats up to 150 guests. The lakeside terrace can also take a smaller seated outdoor reception of up to 60, and larger groups for cocktails.
Can we bring our own drinks?
No, the venue is not BYO. Drinks packages are charged per guest per hour, or you can choose an on-consumption tab with a spending limit, and guests can also buy spirits and cocktails at the bar.
Who does the catering?
Fennel & Co is the exclusive caterer, so outside caterers are not permitted. Its menus are seasonal and built around locally sourced produce.
What happens if it rains on the ceremony?
The large undercover dance floor beside the reception hall doubles as the wet-weather ceremony location.
Is the venue accessible, and are dogs welcome?
There is a dedicated accessible parking space outside the building and an accessible toilet, and staff can drive less mobile guests between the ceremony and reception. Well-behaved dogs are welcome if you let the team know beforehand, though not overnight in the suites.
