About Lindesay House

Lindesay House is one of Sydney's most prestigious outdoor wedding venues, set within the manicured grounds of a historic 1830s mansion in Darling Point. With sweeping views over Sydney Harbour and a grand sense of heritage, this elegant estate offers a truly refined setting for romantic garden ceremonies and timeless outdoor receptions.

At the heart of the property is the formal Parterre Garden — a picture-perfect space framed by sculpted hedges, classical statues and a central pond. The garden's serene beauty and old-world charm create an effortlessly sophisticated backdrop for intimate weddings and high-end celebrations alike.

Venue hire for daytime weddings (concluding by 5pm) is $7,550 + GST for up to 60 guests and includes exclusive access to the estate grounds. For those dreaming of an evening affair, Lindesay House allows a limited number of twilight weddings each year (just 12), with a 9pm curfew, capacity for up to 100 guests, and venue hire of $10,900 + GST.

With its rare combination of history, harbour views and meticulously landscaped gardens, Lindesay House is one of Sydney's most coveted venues for elegant outdoor weddings.
