Nutting Hill Villa: A Castle for Your Love Story
Imagine you and your partner stealing a private moment together on your wedding day. The setting sun casts a warm, golden light across the 100 private acres of lush hinterland surrounding you. Your venue, Nutting Hill Villa, feels like a magnificent milestone in your journey.
We are a venue that puts a great deal of care into every design detail, so you will have the choice of a wonderful selection of one-of-a-kind photographic backdrops. Picture your first bridal portraits captured in the sophisticated lighting of the ornate portico.
Later, the two of you steal a secret moment high above the grounds, the breathtaking views spread out beneath you from the rustic turret or the majestic tower.
These architectural elements of our mini-castle inject grandeur into your memories, and the photos will come together in an album you will cherish for decades to come.
The gardens here have been meticulously designed to ensure year-round vibrancy. They are lush and green regardless of the time of year – eternally verdant, a symbol of your ever-fresh, ever-growing love.
Your Unique Celebration Canvas
We only provide the venue and let you curate every other detail of your wedding through your choice of trusted third-party vendors. This means you have the freedom to engage the region's best suppliers to make your celebration a perfect reflection of your personal taste without the constraints of in-house packages.
The Plantation Room can comfortably seat up to 200 guests for a large guest list. You might also choose the beautiful Pavillion On The Green, which offers seating for up to 100 guests if your guest list is smaller.
Both spaces blend beautifully with the hinterland surroundings. They feature polished concrete floors that are illuminated by enchanting fairy lights and use minimal walling to merge the celebratory atmosphere with the gorgeous outdoors and towering trees. These spaces have dedicated, all-weather areas for catering and dancing too.
Think of us as a destination experience. The entire venue charge means you get exclusive access to the villa with 5 luxurious bedrooms and bathrooms for your bridal party if you wish. There are accommodation options for guests nearby, which we are happy to offer recommendations for.
For a truly spectacular finale, take advantage of the rare opportunity to elevate your celebration and round up the evening with a breathtaking fireworks display against the dark, private hinterland sky – a moment of pure magic.
Your Enduring Love Story Starts Here
The elegance of Nutting Hill Villa is a commitment to the future. Our property will expand its offerings by 2027 to include six two-bedroom Orchard Villas, accommodating up to 24 guests, and a large Italian-style, fairy-lit courtyard, complete with a fire pit.
For couples booking their date now for 2027, these developments will add even more value to your wedding. Just picture it: you will get dedicated spaces for pre-wedding get-togethers and post-wedding brunches.
Choosing Nutting Hill Villa means choosing the enduring romance of Tuscany, the convenience of staying local and a love story as grand as the mini-castle itself.
The Tuscan Choice for All-Weather Peace
A venue isn’t for you if it doesn’t offer complete peace of mind. Planning means you need to think about all the possibilities. Intense heat, strong winds or sudden rain can introduce unnecessary stress that steals focus from the romance of your sacred day. Having reliable shelter means you can go forth knowing that your day will be taken care of, and all your guests will be catered to comfortably.
This is precisely why so many couples are looking just a few short minutes inland, about twenty minutes away, to the magnificent, protected landscape of the Byron Bay Hinterland. The spectacular scenery remains untouched here, naturally sheltered from prevailing winds.
Nutting Hill Villa offers reliable undercover protection with open-sided venue spaces that add that fresh hinterland airflow to your ceremony and reception space, without the risk of being unsheltered.
This is the start of your love story. Get in touch to discuss availability and how our venue can accommodate your vision.
