Country Wedding Venue
In The Beautiful Natal Midlands
CONGRATULATIONS ON YOUR ENGAGEMENT!
You’re engaged, high on love and feeling excited!
Then the mind starts: Everyone wants to know everything – from the wedding date to the bridesmaid dress color.
It’s easy to feel a little overwhelmed at this stage, but we are glad to see that you have taken the first step and started your venue search!
There is no mistake that our paths have crossed. You wanted something special? You found it.
Combining a premium boutique Bed and Breakfast with a magnificent four tiered country wedding venue – you are not simply hiring a wedding venue,
but partnering with us to create a series of memorable moments resulting in a remarkable experience to be remembered.
FOUR MAGNIFICENT INTERCONNECTED VENUES
Our venue rental promises you the exclusive use of four magnificent venues, all seamlessly blending to craft your perfect wedding day.
From the intimate ceremony to the delightful canapés and the grand reception, each area boasts its unique charm, promising an array of unforgettable moments for your family and loved ones throughout your special day.
THE PAVILION
The Pavilion, with its open-sided design graced by beautiful mosaic pillars and elegant chandeliers, offers a stunning panoramic view of tranquil pastures.
Its open-truss roof features clear sides and quintessential rafters, thoughtfully interspersed with skylights that bathe the space in natural light. As our Nguni Cattle herd grazes peacefully in front of The Pavilion, they provide a picturesque and memorable backdrop for your guests upon arrival.
Typically serving as a serene setting for ceremonies, The Pavilion can transform to suit any weather. Should the skies turn grey, we can enclose the venue with canvas sidewalls, while maintaining the sophisticated ambiance with a glass-backed bridal platform.
THE PIAZZA
Adjacent to The Pavilion lies The Piazza, a fully walled Tuscan-style open courtyard enveloped by a bespoke Bedouin-style tent that spans its entirety. Enclosed by stunning grey stone walls and featuring two grand wooden doors that usher guests into The Gallery, this space exudes romance. The thoughtful uplighting tracing the walls and the charming water feature crafted from milk pails come together to create an enchanting atmosphere as night falls. Above, hundreds of meters of warm-toned fairy lights line the tent’s canopy.
The Piazza accommodates up to 150 seated guests for an elegant reception.
Should you choose The Gallery for the reception, The Piazza transforms seamlessly into a sophisticated area for cocktails, a buffet, or a whimsical dance space under fairy lights.
THE GALLERY
As you step through the grand Piazza doors, you are welcomed into The Gallery. This exquisitely appointed venue, crafted from hand-cut sandstone and adorned with Oregon pine and yellowwood accents, awaits to be the canvas for your special day.
Each end of this expansive hall boasts a magnificent fireplace set against dry-stacked stone, providing a romantic ambiance that is both elegant and inviting. The lighting, drapery, and decor have been thoughtfully curated to ensure a warm and enchanting atmosphere that will captivate you and your guests.
The Gallery can seat up to 100 guests for a reception. Should you choose to host the reception in The Piazza, The Gallery gracefully transforms into an enchanting area for the buffet/desert displays, dance floor and group photos.
THE LAWN
Imagine the dream canapé hour surrounded by the natural beauty of The Midlands – The Lawn, our stunning outdoor venue next to The Pavilion. This leveled-off lawn is perfect for cocktails and intimate gatherings. While you and your partner capture cherished moments during your photo shoot, your guests can savor the serene scenery and even meet our charming Nguni cattle.
From beautiful harvest tables to a stylish gin bar, The Lawn can be tailored to your vision.
If the weather takes an unexpected turn, don’t worry! We’re fully equipped to relocate the canape hour to The Pavilion or Piazza, ensuring your special day remains absolutely magical.
Sometimes You Will Never Know The Value Of A Moment, Until It Becomes A Memory.

Abigail Miles
We had such a lovely day – and that was in such a large part due to you. Thank you so much for all your hard work and general efficiency. We so appreciated all your behind the scenes work!!!
The Gallery in Nottingham Road is a true gem. Surrounded by rolling hills, and Nguni cattle, lies this little treasure. We were blessed to be able to be married at this venue and Ryan made us feel like we were home. He accommodated our every need and was on hand to make sure that the day went off as smooth as possible. Whilst many venues are all about business, this venue is about the experience and we know now that we made a perfect choice. Hats off to Ryan and his team for giving us the wedding our hearts longed for. Much love and light always!
It was my eldest Sisters wedding and it was a fairtail. The venue was beautiful. The Manor house was warm and cosy with antique furniture and entertainment. Warm and friendly staff, 2 sweet house cats, an honesty bar for you to practice your bartending skills, a wall piano, wooden chess board and fire place. Served with morning breakfast by the gallerys own chef and staff. Everything was perfection.
The place was amazing and the service was great 👌🏽, looking forward to paying it another visit.
The people and the surroundings blend so well together that at the end of the function its painful to say goodbye. You feel as though you have known them all your life. Love Graham's cigar collection too. Really good taste...

OUR WEDDING PACKAGE
VAT Inclusive:
2026:
R39 150
*Please note that this package excludes the following:
Waiters/clearers are charged dependent on guest numbers: If meals are plated/served (not buffet) you would require 1 per 20 Guests. If meals are buffet you would require 1 per 25 Guests. R880 per waiter, and a singular collective transport cost of: R680
We do not allow waiters from Caterers due to the quality of waitstaff being subpar, and their lack of knowledge of the venue. Our waiters will work with your chosen caterer, are well trained, and can do all tasks required – from buffet service, champagne table service to roaming canapes etc. This also ensures you are not being double charged by your caterer for kitchen staff acting as waiters sporadically. This is non-negotiable.
