A luxurious and glamorous venue in the heart of our village

This replica 1880s two-storied building is a highly flexible function venue that can host both intimate gatherings and the largest of crowds. Featuring a speakeasy bar, dedicated dance floor and/or cake cutting nook, cloak room, and a wrap-around outdoor balcony, this venue is ideal for hosting a wide range of sophisticated events.

The timber balcony looks over quaint cobblestone streets and bush-clad hills and is an ideal spot for group photos or to serve cocktails and canapes. Inside, the grand 5m-high vaulted ceiling is fitted with cut crystal-style chandeliers, and additional LED lighting can be colour-matched to suit any event. Fairy lights can be strung across beams for an extra special touch, and the décor features sumptuous velvets and hints of gold alongside Indian ink wood panelling and gorgeous wallpaper. 

An eight-speaker audio system and full-sized projection screen are available, and in-house catering can be provided from the full-sized commercial kitchen downstairs. All bathrooms are accessible and lifts and ramps can safely transport guests upstairs with ease.

The Balcony Room is a versatile space that can be styled to suit any occasion, theme or desired configuration. Combine modern comfort with grand splendour and create an event to remember.
