Venture into the 54 hectare property, over the bridge and through gum-tree studded countryside to find your own private wedding retreat at Old Woodhouse Manor - the Crown Jewel of Piccadilly. This two story, heritage listed mansion is destined to provide the perfect backdrop or venue for a very special and unique ceremony.
Stroll through the secret garden in the shade of century old Magnolia trees, explore the rugged paths that lead to the gurgling waterfall and regale in the paved courtyard; the sociable hub of your celebrations. It’s here that you’ll say ‘I do’. It’s the place you’ll share your first sip of champagne as a married couple. It’s the area to which you’ll return to mingle with friends and family as day fades into night and twinkling stars begin to peek through the majestic canopy.
Hidden staircases, wide verandas, colonial gardens and pine-tree forests are a photographer’s dream and your Wedding at Woodhouse will allow you to capture the many varied landscapes without ever leaving your party.
Two private suites on the ground floor of the Manor and group accommodation upstairs is included in the package, perhaps for interstate guests or those looking to keep the party going. Just imagine waking up with your nearest and dearest to share stories of your special day.
The increasing popularity of hiring the Manor for weddings and functions means that we have guests staying most weekends. We respect our guests privacy and so request that you please phone through to arrange a private tour when the Manor is vacant. That will also give us the opportunity to show you around and make sure you don't miss any of the hidden gems!
Sure! You can book your guests into any of our activities such as Challenge Hill if you want to add the thrill of adventure to your big day!
Many couples book classical musicians to provide music during the ceremony. However pre-recorded music is also popular. There are many power sockets located around the venue to plug in a mini sound system or MP3 player or you can bring a CD/MP3 player to play.
After 11pm the music and dancing should move through to the ball room to minimise the impact on our environment and our neighbours!
Yes, we love people who put their special touches on the wedding!
As long as you let us know what and where we are happy to accept deliveries on your behalf.

Our two bottom rooms have linen and are decked out for your stay, this includes furnished rooms with queen beds, coffee and tea making facilities and a bottle of Adelaide Hills sparkling wine for the bridal suite.
They weren’t big on indoor plumbing or en-suites in the 1860’s and as Old Woodhouse Manor is Heritage listed we have been able to provide you with shared bathroom facilities. We hope that you enjoy the rustic charm.
