We hosted a Brunch for Good charity event with 100 guests. Natalie is a true professional and it all ran so smoothly with delicious food. The wait staff were amazing and service gold class. We are so lucky to have such a quality venue locally.

Nepean Business Network held our annual Melbourne Cup Charity breakfast in the Pavilion. Such a beautiful space for functions and the function staff were such a pleasure to deal with from start to finish!

We hosted a work/community event for 60 people and all of our guests had the best time. We ordered an extensive canape menu (the lobster rolls being the fan favourite) along with a grazing table. The smores station and firepit were such a hit too.

We celebrated our daughter's Christening at the Pavilion, and it was so beautiful. Our guests couldn't stop talking about the venue, the food, the service. The park was a huge hit with the kids. Natalie was a dream to work with.

Organising an event for a large group of 50 people can be stressful, especially on short notice, but the team handled everything seamlessly. The Stables was the perfect space. Bakery Brothers created a stunning custom gluten-free cake with only a few days' notice.

We held my father's wake here in the Pavilion. The gardens and venue are stunning and the staff were friendly and helpful with all our needs.
