Plan your visit

Getting here, getting settled.

We want your visit to feel easy. Here's what we know so far — we'll add details as the date gets closer.

i.Getting there

Fly into Perth.

Perth Airport is the closest international gateway. From there, Buckland Estate is roughly a 90-minute drive east through the Avon Valley. Book early — December is summer, school holidays start mid-month, and seats go fast.

More transport details (shuttles, group taxis) closer to the date.

ii.Where to stay

On-site, or nearby.

We've reserved homestead rooms, cottages, glamping tents and a block at the Farmers Home Hotel in Northam. Your reply card will tell you which is yours. Camping at Buckland Estate is also an option if you'd prefer to bring a tent or swag.

Northam Holiday Park has cabins and powered sites if you'd like a back-up.

iii.Getting around

A car helps, shuttles too.

Most guests will hire a car from Perth Airport — it's the simplest way to reach Buckland and explore the Avon Valley. We'll arrange shuttles between the homestead and the Farmers Home Hotel for the wedding evening.

Map and pickup times will be shared the week of the wedding.

iv.While you're here

Stay a little, see a lot.

If you're flying in for the weekend, consider an extra night or two. Toodyay, York and the surrounding wineries are a short drive. Perth and Fremantle reward a long lunch. We'll share our favourite local stops nearer the time.

Ask us — we're always happy to recommend a spot.
