A set menu to share and remember
Dining at The Woodshed is a journey—one that begins the moment you step through candlelit doorway and into the old agricultural shed is now a contemporary dining space where rustic charm meets quiet elegance.
This destination dining experience immerses you in fire, flavour and craftsmanship. At its heart, an open fire kitchen where guests bear witness to the passion and skill behind the cookery and chefs serve diners giving everyone a chance to engage.
Every detail—from the thoughtfully paired wines, the plush banquettes, and the deep, smoky aromas that fill the air—creates an immersive dining experience that is as refined as it is grounded. Guided by Head Chef Oscar Holgado—whose culinary journey spans Michelin-starred kitchens in the UK—each dish reflects a commitment to sustainability, whole-animal butchery, and a deep respect for ingredients. Oscar's passion infuses every plate, creating a dining journey that's both refined and rooted in the land.
WHAT TO EXPECT
Seven Courses, Fixed Price
Slow down and indulge in our three hour long tasting menu. The scent of wood smoke will drift through the air, and the crackle of the fire will set the background tone for a 7 course dining experience that celebrates fire, flavour, provenance and conversation.
Dinner unfolds at a leisurely pace, allowing guests to savour each course and the stories they tell. Optional wine pairings, thoughtfully selected to complement the menu, enhance the experience.
At The Woodshed, you’re not just eating dinner, you’re connecting to a fundamental philosophy of seasonality, sustainability, regenerative farming and engagement with artisanal skill. We hope you take the time to connect with friends over this fireside experience.

Launching The Woodshed Residencies
Launching The Woodshed Residencies
This August, The Woodshed launches its inaugural Creative Residency Series — a collection of curated two-day immersive experiences celebrating the beauty of making by hand. Each residency is grounded in a material or craft, from charcoal and clay to pigment, timber, florals, smoke and fermentation, exploring the transformation of raw materials through skilled hands. That same philosophy extends to the table, where every plate has been handmade and every dish is thoughtfully crafted over fire, creating a seamless connection between the artistry of making and the experience of dining that has become the hallmark of The Woodshed.
Creative Residencies
Dine. Stay. Create
Launching the series on Thursday August 20th, the inaugural residency is 2 day elemental Charcoal Residency, where art meets fire. Guests will spend the afternoon beside the flames transforming vine cuttings into drawing charcoal over glowing embers, dining in The Woodshed before returning the following day to create artworks using the very materials they have crafted by hand.

Thursday bookings now open!
HEAD CHEF
Oscar Holgado
At the heart of The Woodshed’s open kitchen, framed by a five-metre granite hearth, Head Chef Oscar Holgado is quietly redefining regional dining. Hailing from some of London’s most celebrated restaurants, Holgado brings a refined, produce-led sensibility to the hinterland folds of the Australian countryside. Since arriving, he's been named “One to Watch” by Broadsheet Australia—a nod to his thoughtful vision and grounded creativity.
Holgado’s menus are shaped by a deep respect for provenance and process. Working closely with local growers and the Hotel’s own market garden, he crafts a paddock-to-plate experience that much like the richly textured interiors—is an immersive experience. At The Woodshed, Holgado doesn’t just serve meals; he tells stories through fire, flavour, and fiercely local ingredients.

The Woodshed is a highly curated and intimate venue, with a small number of guests per service. The dinner unfolds over several hours and with such small numbers, it is hard to accommodate last minute cancellations. We require 100% payment of $200 pp to secure the booking and request as much notice as possible should you need to cancel. Regrettably cancellations within 48 hours are non refundable.
-
