The Doolhof

If you’ve been dreaming of a winter wedding, let these images be your sign.

This beautiful styled shoot at the Country House captured exactly why so many couples are starting to fall in love with the cooler seasons. The golden vineyards, soft winter light, mountain views, crackling fireplaces and rich seasonal colours create a setting that’s both romantic and incredibly photogenic.

There is a common misconception that weddings are best suited to summer, but the truth is that winter weddings also offer something completely different. The farm feels calm, intimate and unhurried, allowing you and your guests to truly settle in and enjoy the celebration.

We’re excited to share that our Winter Wedding Packages are now live and available to view on our website

For package information and availability, please get in touch with our Country House Manager.

A special thank you to the talented suppliers who brought this shoot to life.

A few days away, good food, long chats around the table, misty mornings, and nowhere else to be☕️

These girls booked out the entire Country House for two nights and made it their own - slow mornings with coffee, dinners under the chandelier, catching up by candlelight, and simply enjoying time together away from the city.

Winter at Doolhof Country House is made for moments like this. Whether it’s a girls’ getaway, a corporate escape, or an intimate winter celebration, the house becomes yours for the weekend.

Winter has arrived in the valley.

The leaves are changing, the air is cooler, and the farm has taken on that quiet, cosy feeling that makes this season so special.

It’s the perfect time to escape to Doolhof - whether you’re staying at our Country House or settling in at on Doolhof, there’s something beautiful about slow mornings, farm walks, horses by the paddocks, good wine and time away from the everyday.

Our Country House is also running two special winter offers, available for a limited time only.

The worst of the weather has passed, but our team is spending the day caring for and preparing the farm to warmly welcome guests back🧡

Doolhof, Mila Restaurant and our Tasting Room will remain closed on Wednesday, 13 May, reopening from Thursday, 14 May 2026.

The safety of our guests remains our top priority, and we are so looking forward to welcoming you back to the farm.

Thank you for your understanding. Stay safe and warm.

The horses are part of the heart of the farm.

If you’ve visited before, you’ll definitely know Toffy - our much-loved pony who has a way of making everyone stop, smile, and stay a little longer.

You’ll find them grazing peacefully in the paddocks just in front of the Country House, living slowly, exactly as farm life should be. There’s something really special about wandering over to say hello, watching them move through the fields, and just taking a quiet moment for yourself.

It’s simple, it’s grounding… and it’s all part of the experience here.

Misty mornings, moody afternoons… and nowhere else you’d rather be than in the mountains🤍

At the Country House, the slower days are the ones you remember most.
Cuddled up on the couch with a good book, a board game on the table, and a glass of red in hand… all while the fire gently crackles in the background.

It’s about switching off, settling in, and soaking up the stillness of the valley.
