Mewburn Park Homestead is a restored 1850s homestead with 20 acres of gardens on a 300-acre working farm near Maffra in Central Gippsland. Couples can marry in the gardens or beside the heritage brick Stables and hold the reception in a clear-view marquee looking out over farmland and mountain ranges.

A heritage homestead with a clear marquee looking out over farmland and the ranges. It rewards couples who want space and sky, and with accommodation on site the longer drive to Gippsland becomes part of the weekend.
