Flowerdale Estate

My new wife and I got married here on Saturday. This venue is not only in a picturesque location, the team here at absolutely amazing. The grounds are immaculately kept, the food is to die for. I can't praise this venue enough for a visit just for lunch or dinner, a weekend getaway or a big event like a wedding. We are so happy we found this venue, Flowerdale Estate are the extra in extraordinary!!

There are no words that can describe my son’s wedding on Saturday 6 April 2024 at Flowerdale Estate. From the amazing food, the venue, the staff, the gardens, the rooms, the morning after breakfast…everything about this place was just exceptionally beautiful!
Maria & Grace I cannot thank you both enough for looking after our son’s wedding to his now wife, Claudia. You went above and beyond to make sure that their wedding day was a day that they will never forget.
I couldn’t fault not one thing! Everything was wonderful.
From my family to you and your staff thank you for a wonderful day…one that we will never forget!

We were lucky enough to hold our wedding at Flowerdale Estate on 20 April 2024 and I can honestly say it was the best experience and day of my life.

As an event manager and self-professed control freak, I was looking for a venue that I knew I could trust to help me execute our special day, and from the moment of our first site visit I knew that Flowerdale Estate was THE place.

Grace, Demmi and the whole Flowerdale team were professional, helpful and enthusiastic, meeting our excitement every step of the way. The day ran flawlessly and the team were amazing making sure that we had everything we needed throughout the day.

The venue is absolutely breathtaking! The accommodation rooms are comfortable and spacious and easily accommodated our guests. The ceremony locations are so naturally stunning they don't require much styling at all and the pavilion space for the reception is honestly the best reception space I have seen at a venue. There are so many stunning locations for photos as well - honestly I cannot fault this venue and we received so many compliments from our guests.

If you are considering doing a recovery brunch - I would definitely recommend hosting this onsite at Flowerdale Estate as well. The way the team transformed the pavilion space exceeded our expectations and was absolutely amazing!

Thank you so much again Flowerdale Estate! We can't wait to come back and celebrate our anniversaries here over the years!

My partner and I, plus another couple, visited the Estate for lunch and Devonshire tea last Saturday. We had the charcuterie and dips platters for lunch and they were both delicious and great value. Our waitress was very accommodating with bringing our more crackers and bread when asked. Our Devonshire tea was faultless. The scones were light and the jam exceptional. Also incredible value! We were also very impressed with the wine list, which was made up predominately of local, Victorian wines. The grounds are also beautiful. We'll be back!

The place sells itself. Amazing views, lots of green all year round, quirky, rustic and chic at the same time. All of our guests were amazed by our venue and loved the food. We loved Flowerdale as soon as we stepped in. But what’s really amazing about this place, it’s the people!!!!! Demmi and Grace, both lovely, kind, professional, helpful event coordinators.. But it doesn’t end here, every single person working at Flowerdale was so lovely, welcoming, nice, warm.. everyone smiling always, not just on our wedding day but each and every time we visited too. The team at Flowerdale Estate made sure our day ran smoothly and with no issues whatsoever. So so so professional!!!! The accomodation on site made things a lot easier for our guests and made sure we could continue our celebration the next day!

Impeccable venue. Food is amazing. I have been for a group lunch and another time for a high tea. Very good customer service. The grounds are lovely to wander around on a nice day. I highly recommend visiting this venue

I was lucky enough to have my wedding at Flowerdale Estate in March 2024.
Everything about Flowerdale Estate is perfect, from the views to the food and accommodation.
A very big thank you to the wonderful staff who make Flowerdale Estate so special, as they all go the extra mile to make sure that everything is perfect.

My husband and I chose Flowerdale Estate for our wedding on 21st October 2023 and we are so incredibly happy to have found this beautiful venue! We knew from the moment we drove in the driveway that this was the one and we booked almost immediately!
From the get go, the staff were incredible to deal with. They are attentive, friendly and made the entire process so stress free.
Our day was absolutely perfect in every way and this is a credit to all staff who contributed towards it. The gardens were immaculate, the coordinators were flawless and the serving staff were attentive and helpful. We have been receiving incredibly positive feedback from all of our guests about the delicious food, stunning venue and amazing staff.
Thank you for making our special day the most incredible experience. We wish we could do it a million times over, thats how positive our experience was!
Wishing the team all the best for the future, we cant wait to visit again soon.
Madeleine & Nathan Varnava xoxo

This is a stunning place. Our son had his wedding here 10 days ago.
The grounds are incredible, beautiful lush gardens. Spectacular.
The staff were very attentive, the food enjoyed by all.
The pavilion is so stylish, just an excellent venue.
I would suggest though the access to the bathrooms need looking at.
There are limited loos, with an uneven path to access them. They are not too easy for folks with mobility issues. It would be good to look at this in future.

My daughter picked this venue for both her wedding ceremony & reception. I couldn’t be happier with her choice! EVERYTHING was absolutely perfect. Fantastic venue, food, stunning grounds, luxurious accommodation & such friendly team & owner! Thank you for making my daughter & son in law’s day the very best.

Gorgeous gardens and surrounds. Easy going staff and more than happy to accommodate any needs. Food was delicious, even picky husband was satisfied!

I cannot speak highly enough of our experience at Flowerdale Estate. My daughter Sarah and husband Gareth had their wedding there on the weekend. The venue is superb with beautiful gardens, a light filled reception centre and the main building with old world charm. The staff were friendly and professional including event staff, bar and catering staff and the grounds staff. Special thanks to Grace who looked after the wedding party making sure they had everything they needed. Kudos to the chef for creative and delicious food. Thanks for making the wedding such a wonderful experience for family and guests. Cheers Peter

A hidden gem for our daughter's and son-in-law's wedding. Beautiful matured gardens surrounding historical buildings, the sounds of nature in this picturesque location. The service was faultless beginning as soon as I stepped out of the car, friendly assistance throughout our whole time left a lasting impression that we'll remember with gratitude. Even though we had a few hiccups our end, the staff were there to help. The food and presentation was excellent. It was all topped off by an amazing spectacle - a large wedge tailed eagle circling as the bride and groom read their vows. You can't plan that. Thank you Flowerdale Estate for such a beautiful experience.

Went there for a wedding, the room was lovely and the other facilities were fantastic! Definitely recommend
The food was amazing, chicken was cook perfectly for me

Exceptional! That's one word I would describe our stay. The staff are fantastic and will accommodate any request within reason. The grounds and views are stunning. No weddings booked on our weekend which was perfect as it made it quiet and romantic for my husband and I.
The rooms are clean but could do with a bit of an update.
Will definitely be returning.

I cannot thank the team at Flowerdale enough for making my wedding perfect. The venue, the staff, just everything was so wonderful that I could not have hoped for a better day and night. The biggest shout out to Grace for being so professional, friendly and organised throughout the day. I never once felt nervous or worried that something had been missed. She and the staff anticipated my every need and thought of everything. If you're considering Flowerdale Estate for a function or even just a stay or meal, go for it, you'll never regret it and will love every minute. Thank you to everyone from the bottom of my heart.

Firstly, Flowerdale Estate is surprisingly just under 90 minutes drive from Melbourne and set on beautiful grounds with onsite rooms, pool, tennis court, conference room and other facilities that make it standout as the perfect place for a wedding or other function.

My wife and I were visiting for the Sunday High Tea and left very full and impressed! Sitting on the verandah we were presented with a traditional high tea stand that was beautifully presented, with each item fresh and made with care.

The stand out was the nectarine tart but all of the items were well balanced and delicious with the generous fresh baked scones a perfect way to end accompanied with a glass of Pimm's.

The customer service from all of the team was fantastic with pre-determined table, regular check ins, remembering our upgrade and explaining the high tea stand... we couldn't fault a thing.

Another observation, sitting on the verandah and looking up and around you could see how clean everything was, no cobwebs etc. so it was obvious the owners take great pride and care in the homestead.

Thank you for a great and memorable afternoon.

Always a great experience when I visit Flowerdale Estate. The bedroom was basic but beautifully clean. The service is excellent and the food impressive.

My husband and I stayed in the eco tent for a weekend away. Our first time EVER without the kiddos. All the staff were so friendly and accommodating, one of the owners Maria was so kind, allowed me to feed the baby calf's and spend time with them which was a highlight for me. We played tennis, enjoyed walks in the beautiful gardens and had one of the best steaks and cabbage salad (the cabbage was out of this world). Overall would highly recommend for anyone looking for some R&R. We can't wait to go back and visit.

Had a very nice weekend stay.
Owners and staff were very friendly and helpful during our stay.
We had all 3 meals, breakfast, lunch, and dinner. All were beautiful.
The dining room was warm and inviting.
