Haycroft Farm is an exclusive wedding venue set in the heart of The Midlands. If an exquisite country wedding is what you are looking for, you will not find anywhere more breath taking! The wedding venue and chapel areas are set on the water’s edge, with picturesque views in all directions.

Nestled on a small farm in the KwaZulu Natal midlands, we are surrounded by everything that is naturally beautiful. Only a short drive from Howick, we are conveniently located to the major access routes and it’s the perfect location between the East Coast and Gauteng.

We offer both an indoor and outdoor option for your wedding ceremony: our popular pine forest chapel, with wooden bench seating beneath the trees, or our stunning country farm chapel, with glazed front windows which overlook the dam and forest.

The wooden deck, on the edge of the dam sets the perfect scene for your afternoon canapes and sundowners. Your guests will enjoy watching the sunset while you take your photos during the light of that magical golden hour.

The front of our country wedding venue opens up onto a grassed terrace, where we have added a secluded fire pit. Both the venue and firepit overlook the forest and dam beyond.

Your wedding day should reflect you as a couple: the bride and groom… just as no two couples are the same, neither should your wedding be.

And that’s what we are here for… to help create your perfect day: To make it different, memorable, and unique.

Your day will be tailored to suit all your wishes, so the wedding packages are merely a guide. Please contact us to discuss the various options.

Our self-catering accommodation sleeps up to 72 guests. All bedrooms are within walking distance from the wedding venue. We offer a dressing suite for both the bride and groom, as well as a luxurious honeymoon suite for our newlyweds.
