Choosing the Right Birthday Party Venue

Long lunches under a wisteria pergola, a fire pit glowing after sunset and a giant chess board on the lawn: a birthday at The Garden @ Grays Inn Wollombi feels more like a private garden party than a night out. The space sits behind a restored sandstone inn right in the middle of the old village, and it's hired out for private functions.

Wollombi is a historic village south-west of Cessnock, and that quiet, rural setting is the draw for a birthday that wants conversation more than crowds.

Ways to shape a birthday in the Grays Inn garden:

  • Seated lunch or dinner: long dining tables on the lawn inside the curved sandstone circle
  • Cocktail party: a standing celebration that moves between the pergola, the lawn and the fire pit
  • Film night: an open-air cinema evening, one of the event types the inn offers
  • Food: catering arranged by the inn, or a caterer of your own choosing
  • A drink to take home: SIP Wollombi Village, on the property, is a tasting room and bottle shop for small-batch Hunter wine, spirits, beer and cider

Birthdays that bring friends in for a weekend can make use of the inn's three guest rooms for the guest of honour or a few close friends. Everyone else should arrange transport or a place to stay in advance, since the village is a drive from the bigger towns.

Making the most of the garden

  • Set the cake table near the pergola and keep speeches on the lawn, where the stone walls frame the group
  • A later start lets the spotlights on the trees and walls do their work once it's dark
  • The fire pit between the two old water tanks is a natural gathering spot for a cooler-month birthday
  • Younger guests at a family celebration can take on the giant chess board while the adults eat
