Absolutely! We’d love to show you around the Estate. You can book a private tour online (https://app.studioninja.co/online-booking/portal/0a800fc9-8ca5-1d4a-818c-a94853d02163/sessions) or share your preferred date and time here, and we’ll be in touch to confirm.
Do you offer accommodation onsite?
Yes! Our beautiful Homestead sleeps up to 6 guests. There’s also an area in the property for up to 10 glamping tents for your guests to hire.
Can we have our ceremony and reception in one place?
Absolutely — that’s what couples love most about Leonards Hill Estate. You can hold your ceremony, photos, and reception all onsite, surrounded by gardens and countryside views.
Would it be possible to extend our wedding celebration time?
We would be happy to extend your wedding celebration time (at an extra cost), depending on your wedding style and the availability of our venue on your wedding date. Please contact us for more details.
What happens after I pay my deposit?
We will send you a confirmation email of your deposit and another email with the next steps that we require from you.
What does “exclusive use” of the estate mean?
When you book Leonards Hill Estate as your wedding venue in Daylesford, the entire 4-acre estate is yours for the day.
There are no shared events, no overlapping bookings, and no outside guests — just you and your favourite people celebrating in complete privacy.
This gives you the freedom to truly relax and enjoy your wedding day, knowing the space is dedicated entirely to you.
How long do we have the estate for on our wedding day?
Your wedding celebration runs from 3.30pm to 11pm, giving you 7.5 hours of dedicated event time.
This includes:
• Guest arrivals
• Ceremony
• Canapés and drinks
• Reception
• Dancing and celebrations
You're also welcome to celebrate earlier, for example, 1.30pm to 9pm. Another option is extending the celebration (at an additional cost).
It’s designed to give you a relaxed, well-paced wedding experience without feeling rushed.
