Food Fanatics and Homestead venue

01/10/2026

Every good couple has a date worth celebrating. 💍

A first date. An engagement. A wedding. Ten years married and still ordering dessert for two.

This Couples Day, we’re celebrating all of them, and the beautiful occasions that bring everyone else along for the party.

If one of your dates falls in 2027, The Grace Conservatory is now open for weddings, engagement celebrations, anniversaries and intimate events, with Food Fanatics taking care of what we know best: the food.

2027 wedding and celebration enquiries are open.

What’s in season at GRAPA Garden? Today we’re talking about the all rounder that is carrots 🥕

Watching the garden wake up like this is our favourite part of spring. It’s also the quiet start of our countdown to Garden Day on Sunday, 18 October, where everything we’ve been nurturing in GRAPA Garden makes its way to the table.

How do you like your carrots, let us know what your go-to is? ✨

Mary, Mary, quite contrary, how does your garden grow?

One month to go until Garden Day springs into bloom on Sunday, 18 October.

We’re keeping this first note short: clear your calendar for a slow, sun-soaked spring lunch around our tables.

Before we talk about the menu, we wait to see what the garden actually wants to grow. So stay tuned! 🍃

Olga’s 60th was a very good reminder of how much we love a good celebration at The Homestead.

A beautifully set table, plenty coming out of the kitchen, good w**e and 60 years of stories to get through. ❤️

And soon, we’ll have a brand-new space for many more of them. The Grace Conservatory is almost ready for weddings, birthdays, anniversaries, corporate functions and all the other reasons people find to gather around a table.

If you’re planning something for late 2026 or 2027, come and see The Grace for yourself at our Open Viewing Days on Friday 25 and Saturday 26 September.

Everyone is welcome. 📧 Contact [email protected] for viewing details or to arrange a site inspection.
