Elgin Valley Wine Route

Wedding Venue, Busses Welcome, Open on Sundays, Outside Seating, Wheelchair Friendly, Conference and events Venue, Pet Friendly, Accommodation Available

The century-old Elgin Orchards farm is home to Elgin Vintners – an association of shareholders and various winemakers. At its heart, among orchards, vineyards and pastures is the renovated Victorian homestead. Where the Ridgelands Manor House was once a nursing station for wounded soldiers returning home after WW2, it now serves as guesthouse and hosts wine tastings among the library shelves and on the sandstone terrace with views of surrounding landscape. Two wine ranges serve to highlight the effect of amongst others a cool climate on fruit in this region.

The Ridgelands Manor House, built in 1927 and based on a Sir Herbert Baker design, which has since been converted into a four-star Boutique Guest House is the perfect hiding place for a romantic couple’s get away, or just a tranquil weekend away from the hustle and bustle of city life or even the perfect venue for an intimate wedding party. Garden enthusiasts can enjoy meandering through the English-style garden and faithful hounds are welcome to join too. The swimming pool is open to all visitors to the farm and if you are planning on spending the day with a picnic on the lawn be sure to bring along tennis rackets or mountain bikes to experience the whole farm!
