Ambrym Estate

Where the splendour of a luxury country property merges with the tranquil beauty of the coast, you’ll discover Ambrym Estate, The Capricorn Coast’s premier event destination.

Nestled in the Woodbury hinterland, the secluded 50-acre estate offers sweeping views from the rolling mountains to the shores of Corio Bay, capturing the beauty of the Keppel Islands along the way. Boasting luxurious accommodation, Ambrym Estate provides the perfect setting for an intimate wedding or private event, promising unforgettable memories that will last a lifetime.

This retreat is more than just a venue; it’s a place where family heritage, passion, and natural beauty unite. Discovered in 2010, the secluded sanctuary quickly became a cherished weekend escape, a space where the Thorpe family explored untouched bushland and embraced the simplicity of country life.

In a project that reflected the family's love for craftsmanship, they relocated a beautifully preserved 1940s Queenslander from Rockhampton to the hilltop, laying the foundation for their vision. Thoughtful enhancements, such as a pool, pool house, additional rooms and pristine gardens have been integrated, all while nurturing the native surroundings.

The estate’s name honours the Thorpe/Geissmann ancestors, who journeyed from Ambrym Island in the New Hebrides to cultivate the fertile lands of this region. Their enduring legacy of hard work and dedication lives on through Ambrym Estate, now a place for all to experience and treasure. With the help of a talented team, guests are invited to create their own lasting memories in a place that embodies elegance, warmth, and a meaningful connection to the local community.
