Adams Peak Country Estate

Ceremony, Reception and Accommodation… one unforgettable location

Adams Peak Country Estate is one of a kind. Set in a stunning location in Broke, in the Hunter Valley, NSW, we are renowned for ticking all the boxes when it comes to your perfect wedding day.

The Barn with its rustic charm, can be styled simply to keep within its country character. The Barn holds up to 150 people seated and 180 for a cocktail reception and is fully airconditioned for those warmer days and with the fireplace for Winter weddings. So it’s perfectly comfortable all year round.

The Lawn boasts a spectacular setting for your wedding ceremony. Offering breathtaking views of the Yellow Rock Escarpment and the surrounding Brokenback Ranges. In case of unexpected weather changes, rest assured we provide excellent bad weather alternative called The Hay Shed, which still provides amazing views, whilst being undercover.

Majority of couples choose the all-inclusive package, which includes the ceremony, reception, and accommodation. Consider adding extra nights to transform the event into a mini holiday, particularly advantageous for guests who have travelled from afar. Our onsite accommodation can comfortably house up to 24 people, all fully air-conditioned for your convenience. For weddings guests requiring accommodation, there’s an array of local options available within a 5-minute radius, ensuring everyone can find a place to stay nearby.

The Retreat, which includes the bridal preparation area, is an ideal space for getting ready on the wedding day. Here, the hair stylist and makeup artist can work their magic. The privacy fence and landscaping combine to form a secluded garden, providing a secret oasis separate from the main house guest.

In 2012, Karyn Fox and her family, moved from Sydney to live with her parents, David and Bronwen Fox, on their property on Adams Peak Road. Although the move was initially temporary as a step to ‘get out of the rat race’, with one small child and falling pregnant again weeks after arriving, they decided that Broke was the ideal place to bring up their family, and decided to stay. Soon enough, they became involved in the family business, Adams Peak Retreat. The Retreat was initially a 4 bedroom house that David and Bronwen converted to a B&B in 2008.

The business soon took a new and exciting direction when the family combined their talents utilising Karyn’s extensive background in bridal retail and marketing combined with David and Bronwen’s experience in sales, hospitality and venue management.

Their small but unique team has worked diligently over the last few years to create their vision of “The Barn”, a rustic, chic space that will continue to grow and improve along with its’ popularity. Those who have been watching since that first wedding in 2009, will note the amazing changes that have occurred to both The Barn and the Adams Peak property (with a lot of hard work).

Shaye came on board in 2015 to assist with weddings. Then due to the ongoing growth and expansion, in 2017, Michael Fox, Karyn’s brother, moved to the Hunter Valley and joined the family business. Michael’s talents in operations, marketing, sales and his flair for landscape and development has been a welcome addition to the team.

Since our first wedding back in 2012, the Fox family have continued to invest in Adams Peak Country Estate to improve it for all, and we will endeavour to do so in the future.

We are extremely proud of our beautiful property, and love sharing it with others, and want to ensure the couple, their families and their guests have an exceptional experience. One to remember for ever.
