Tucked into the undulating hills of Red Hill, on Victoria’s Mornington Peninsula, Polperro offers the kind of setting that feels instantly iconic. Just an hour from Melbourne, this cool-climate wine region is flanked by three coastlines, offering both hinterland charm and sea-breeze sophistication.

As you arrive, you follow a winding path through rosemary hedges and vineyard vistas towards a ceremony space framed by a grand row of ancient Angophora trees, an unmistakable backdrop that quietly sets the tone for something rare.

Polperro is an award-winning estate founded by husband-and-wife team Sam Coverdale and Emma Phillips. It’s home to a Chef’s Hat restaurant, luxury accommodation, and highly regarded biodynamic wines crafted by Sam, one of Australia’s leading winemakers. Interiors by acclaimed design studio Hecker Guthrie bring a relaxed, editorial polish to every space, from the vineyard-view dining room to the farmhouse accommodation. Designed as a full estate experience, weddings here flow seamlessly from ceremony to reception to retreat, with every detail thoughtfully considered.

The property is a photographer’s dream, bathed in golden-hour light, with layered backdrops and natural beauty in every direction. While guests enjoy cocktails on the lawn, couples can slip away for portraits without ever needing to leave the grounds. Beloved by the creatively minded and quietly influential, Polperro is where the cool, the cultured and the curious come to celebrate. A place of beauty and depth, where the light lingers long and the celebration is yours entirely.
