Woods Sherbrooke Receptions

Intimate Art Deco wedding reception and function venue for 30+ guests. English style gardens. Onsite accommodation.

WOODS SHERBROOKE specialises in small, intimate receptions in the Dandenong Ranges. Located on the fringe of Sherbrooke Forest and surrounded by glorious old English gardens, guests will be delighted by the beauty and tranquillity of the venue and inspired by the quality of the food. Choose from 2, 3 or 4-course menus, or why not consider a cocktail style reception for a less formal function? A lantern-lit romantic garden setting is available for pre-dinner drinks and canapés in warmer month’s, or in winter, candles and a crackling wood fire beckon from the gallery. Formal garden’s and beautiful churches are located in close proximity to WOODS Sherbrooke, and photo opportunities are endless. A luxury 2 bedroom spa cottage accommodating up to four guests is available on-site for you to retire to on your wedding night, or to accommodate your guests. This is complemented by a full a-la-carte breakfast served in the restaurant the following morning.

Woods uses homegrown and local organic & free-range produce. Guests can enjoy either a casual breakfast or lunch in the café with its’ delightful garden outlook or on sunny days, take advantage of the garden courtyard adjacent to the café. On Sunday’s during the warmer months, guests may be treated to a gourmet BBQ prepared in the garden by one of our chef’s. At night, the ambience of the gallery restaurant entices with candles flickering, and if cool, the wood fire burning to ward of the winter chill. Guests can peruse the work of local artists whilst enjoying their dining experience.

Award-winning chefs create contemporary Asian/OZ cuisine with a menu that changes frequently to take advantage of the best seasonal local and regional produce on offer. Organic, free-range and chemical-free ingredients are used whenever available. The wine list features local wines, in addition to wines which are the premium varietals from specific regions in Australia and overseas. Woods is Fully Licensed. No BYO thankyou.
