Set within luxurious gardens, the National Trust listed property has long been a favourite for functions, events and weddings. Rippon Lea is a space ideally suited for lavish statements and opulent touches.
There are many places throughout the gardens that guests can be entertained - lunching in the Apple Orchard, boating on the lake - each turn another chance to impress as many as 2,500 guests across the estate.
1st to get the LIGHT in Melbourne - Rippon Lea was one of the first houses in Australia to be lit by electricity and was also one of the first houses in Melbourne to have a tennis court
Stunning !
