The great advantage of Cascades is you are left to create your own style and do your own organising. There are, if you wish people available on the Peninsula to help you with the final details. At your service are caterers offering the finest of the Peninsula´s food, decorations with flare and flower supplies, local musicians and bus hire. Enquire with us and we have someone who can assist you from beginning to end.
Whether your dream is a sunset ceremony on the lawn followed by a sumptuous banquet or just a great bush BBQ with straw bale seating and a big dance floor, there is an ideal solution for everyone.

One of the benefits of choosing Cascades Colonial Mess Hall to celebrate your special occasion is that we can accommodate you and your special guests in authentic convict built cottages.

Bride and groom can stay in the luxurious spa cottage whilst family and friends enjoy the comfort of five other cottages spread over the convict probation station. The cottages are constructed of brick and sandstone and are complimented by colonial antiques and furniture skillfully handcrafted from selected timbers off the property. All the cottages are self-contained and are fitted with modern amenities. Complete with breakfast provisions for the morning after, your stay here will be unforgettable.
Now run by fifth generation owner Marcus Clark and Maria Stupka, guests are invited to visit the private family museum and to explore convict remains, including a cellblock with an intact solitary confinement cell and the original mess hall. Enjoy two stunning short walks on the property, one that follows the waterfront to the site of a convict jetty and another that goes into the rainforest to the ruins of a convict mill and quarry site.


Why not make your special occasion a two day event, so you can relax, enjoy good company and catch up with special friends. Have an afternoon or sunset ceremony, formal dinner and a comfortable overnight followed by a day to discover the property and surrounds, picnic on the lawn or an informal BBQ.
Get the very best of indoors and outdoors for your wedding or special event, far from the distractions of Hobart. Invite your guests for a truly memorable occasion where history is combined with nature in this exclusive waterfront location.
