About

Overview & Vibe

Bellbrae Harvest is a 17-acre country property on the Surf Coast, five minutes inland from the Great Ocean Road and sitting between Torquay and Anglesea. A mud-brick building looks over a lily pond with resident geese; kangaroos and the occasional echidna cross the paddocks. It is a quiet, rustic alternative to a beachfront venue, ten minutes from the coast without the crowds.

Setting & Style

Couples marry beside the lily pond and move to the terrace for a cocktail party, or eat under the vines, or bring the whole thing indoors — the venue is explicit that indoor and outdoor elements can be combined however you like. The interior and its furnishings are available as they stand, or the space can be stripped back and styled to your own design. A cafe by the lake handles the informal end of a weekend.

The Need-to-Knows

Nothing is published about numbers or cost. The site gives no capacity for any space and no pricing of any kind — not a per-head rate, a hire fee or a minimum spend. Every figure has to come from the venue directly, through the contact form or on 0438 662 090.
The enquiry form asks weddings to choose between a sit-down or cocktail format, so both are catered for.
Self-catering is offered on the celebrations and corporate branches of the same form; the wedding branch does not carry that option, so assume catering is arranged with the venue.
Ceremonies can also be held on a local beach, with the reception back at the property.
Serenity Studios are on site — boutique studios with king beds and pure linen — but no room count is published.

Standout Feature

A mud-brick room and a vine-covered terrace above a lily pond, on seventeen acres of Surf Coast country five minutes off the Great Ocean Road.

On Site Accommodation

Serenity Studios are on the property - boutique studios with king beds and pure linen bedding, described by the venue as luxury accommodation in a tranquil country setting between Torquay and Anglesea. Guests staying on site have access to the surrounding paddocks and bushland, which the venue notes are frequented by birds, kangaroos and the occasional echidna.

Price Notes

Enquiry is by contact form, by phone on 0438 662 090 or by email to hello@bellbraeharvest.com.au.
The venue's own enquiry form indicates the formats offered. The Wedding branch asks for an estimated number of attendees, a preferred date, and a 'Type of event' choice of 'Sit down' or 'Cocktail'. The Party/Celebration and Corporate Event branches additionally ask 'Catering required? Yes / No (self catered)' - that self-catering option does NOT appear on the wedding branch, so it should not be assumed to extend to weddings.
The site carries a 2017 copyright notice in its footer and a 2017 accommodation award badge, so the published material may not reflect current offerings. Confirm everything directly.
