Scotchmans Hill is a winery established in 1982 at Drysdale on the Bellarine Peninsula, about 20 minutes from Geelong, offering ceremonies on its lawns and receptions in either The Residence or its restaurant. Couples can marry among the vines with outlooks toward Port Phillip Bay, use a private bridal suite to get ready, and serve wines made on the estate.

Good to know

  • Exclusive use: one wedding at a time
  • Catering by the venue
  • Producer's licence: serves its own wine, beer or cider
