OVERVIEW

Situated on the banks on the Hawkesbury River, burrowed in the orange groves within the rural setting of the Hawkesbury region, a gorgeous wedding venue built in traditional Queenslander style awaits your big day. Experience the charm of the secluded two-storey Cornwallis House where features include French doors that open out to the wraparound verandah, offering enchanting 360 views of the river.

Cornwallis House is the jewel of the Hawkesbury, located on the banks of the peaceful Hawkesbury River, only an hour from the hustle and bustle of Sydney. This is a privately owned property set on a working orange orchard with a gorgeous big Queenslander style house offering luxury accommodation for eight people.

We specialise in small to medium size outdoor country garden style weddings from 60 to around 160 guests. You will have exclusive use of the property for the weekend to create the wedding of your dreams. The added benefit is that you can extend the celebrations with a pre-wedding dinner and/or a “recovery” brunch the following day.

With mesmerising views of the river and surrounding lush green countryside Cornwallis House is perfect for adding your own touch of magic. There are many picturesque locations on the property which are ideal for the ceremony and photos – you will be truly spoilt for choice.

FAQ

Cornwallis House isn’t a “function centre” so we’re unable to hire the house out just for 1 day for the wedding. You need to book accommodation (i.e. hire the whole house) for a minimum of 2 nights to go with the venue hire in order to hold your private wedding event on the property. For this reason we have put together a Wedding Package which includes the accommodation and the venue hire together with facilities, furnishings and equipment  you’d need for the wedding.

June 2021

We fell in love with Cornwallis House as a wedding venue the moment we first viewed it back in 2019! Alannah and Angelo are just the most accommodating hosts, including reschedules from Covid and getting the place back up and running quickly after the 2021 Easter floods. The accommodation is lovely with everything you could need; we'll be booking many future anniversaries here!

The venue is absolutely stunning, and the owners are the loveliest people who were super helpful. Highly recommend the grounds if you are looking for a garden-themed wedding that has lovely views and an amazing house to stay at.
