Lords Estate

Lords Estate will forever hold such a special place in our hearts. From the moment we first saw the beautiful grounds and chapel, we knew there was something really special about this venue. We had always dreamed of a classic, traditional wedding that still felt warm and intimate, and Lords Estate was exactly that. The chapel is absolutely beautiful. I loved its intimate size, the gorgeous stained-glass windows, hardwood floors and traditional architecture. It felt so timeless and made our ceremony feel incredibly personal and meaningful. And of course, walking through those beautiful double doors as the bride and down the aisle was such a magical moment that I’ll never forget. ❤️ The gardens are just as beautiful and gave us so many amazing spots for photos. The fairy-lit tree was one of my favourite parts, especially as the day turned into evening, and the terrace and Vicarage were also gorgeous backdrops. Honestly, we were spoilt for choice when it came to photos! A very special thank you to Claire, the owner and event coordinator. From the very beginning, she was so warm, genuine and caring. She was always there to help, but what I appreciated most was how honest she was. Whenever we asked for advice, she would give us her genuine opinion while still respecting our ideas. It was so reassuring knowing we could trust her. Claire has also surrounded herself with such an amazing team. On the wedding day, they took care of absolutely everything — even the little things we had forgotten about ourselves! Everything flowed so smoothly from the ceremony to cocktail hour and then the reception, and we never had to worry about what was happening next. The team were also so lovely with our guests and made everyone feel welcome and looked after. Even the little details, like making sure our guestbook was being filled in, were taken care of. I also have to give a special mention to Josie, who took such incredible care of me throughout the day. She made sure I stayed hydrated, comfortable and looked after, and that personal care meant so much to me. What started as simply choosing a wedding venue became something much more meaningful. Over the whole process, Claire and her team genuinely became like family to us. They guided us, supported us, celebrated with us and made us feel so cared for. We’ll always remember the beautiful chapel, gardens, fairy-lit tree and all the special memories we made at Lords Estate, but most of all, we’ll remember the people who made our wedding day so wonderful. If you're looking for a beautiful, traditional and intimate wedding venue with stunning grounds and a team that genuinely cares about you, Lords Estate is truly something special. Thank you so much to Claire and the entire team for giving us more than just a beautiful wedding day. We came as clients and left feeling like family. 🤍✨ Erwin & Jessica 6 September 2026

I attended a fundraiser recently at this beautiful estate. It was a great pleasure to meet Claire and her family. Claire was very hospitable, personable, knowledgeable accomodating and dependable with her excellent event coordination. I’d highly recommend her beautiful venue. The grounds take you back in time and are very peaceful, elegant and polished. Claire and the team provide a delightful experience for all your guests. If you are considering this venue, do yourself a favour and reach out to Claire. Christopher Sabat

We recently hosted a function for 70 people at Lords Estate, and it was absolutely perfect. Claire knew exactly what she was doing and assisted us every step of the way, making the entire experience seamless and stress-free. Claire, Pete and their family were incredibly welcoming hosts. The property is beautifully maintained, with stunning heritage buildings, immaculate grounds and an amazing backdrop. We highly recommend Lords Estate to anyone looking for a truly special venue in the Hills area.

My husband and I had our ceremony and reception here in the late afternoon in Winter. It was completely perfect and beautiful. The chapel and whole venue have been restored and have a simple clean, elegant charm. Claire, who runs the estate made everything seem so easy. She had wonderful vendor recommendations, and was so helpful and calm along the whole process. Her staff on the day did an excellent job, and everything ran very smoothly. We had about 35 people, but I feel like space would work so well for a celebration from 10-60.
