Welcome
Welcome to The Orchard Estate. I’m Anton, and this is Una & Juno. We’ve owned The Orchard Estate for about 10 years now. After spending over 20 years in corporate life, we felt the need for a change and bought this beautiful property, seeking a more tranquil and fulfilling lifestyle.
From the moment we took ownership, we embarked on a slow and careful rehabilitation program to restore the macadamia nut orchard to its former glory after years of neglect. The process has been a labour of love, and today, the orchard is thriving and producing high-quality macadamia nuts that we are incredibly proud of.
In addition to nurturing our orchard, we run a small herd of Angus steers, which adds to the diversity and sustainability of our farm. In 2016, driven by our passion for quality food and a desire to share our bounty with others, we purpose-built a restaurant on the estate. Our goal was to create a paddock-to-plate dining experience, where guests can enjoy meals made from the freshest ingredients sourced directly from our farm and local producers.
Our restaurant has become a centrepiece of The Orchard Estate, hosting a variety of events throughout the year. We offer pop-up lunches and dinners that showcase seasonal produce and highlight the best of our farm's offerings. These events have become a favourite among locals and visitors alike, providing a unique and immersive dining experience.
Beyond our regular dining events, The Orchard Estate is also a sought-after venue for private and corporate events, weddings, and commercial photo shoots. Our picturesque setting, combined with the rustic charm of our facilities, makes it an ideal location for memorable occasions. We have two versatile barns on the property: a large black barn and a smaller one, both of which can be customised to suit the needs of various events and photo shoots.
At The Orchard Estate, we are dedicated to creating a welcoming and authentic experience for all our guests. Whether you’re here for a casual meal, a special celebration, or a professional photo shoot, we strive to provide exceptional service and an unforgettable atmosphere. Thank you for joining us on this journey, and we look forward to sharing the beauty and bounty of The Orchard Estate with you.
