Selah Valley Estate catering

We’ve been working hard as a team to plan towards offering our couples and your Cabin/Suite guests an ‘Essentials’ option, or ‘Taste of the Tweed’ to assist with you experience at the Estate.

This is an option that you’ll be able to pre order per cabin/suite so that you don’t have to pop out for groceries while you’re with us and have enough delicious food to enjoy.

An order form will be included here shortly.

Transport and parking

For guests exceeding 30, an organised coach is the preferred method at the estate to ensure your guests arrive and exit Selah Valley safely.

We recommend speaking with your coach company who will assist in identifying the best pick up locations for your guests.

Most recently, our couples are planning pick up locations on the Gold Coast, Casaurina, Kingscliff, or locally in the Murwillumbah town (a central location near to Airbnb options for guests). Murwillumbah is approximately 27 minutes drive from Selah Valley.

A new event parking area has been identified for your vendors and guests requiring an earlier departure or accessible transport. We expect this area is suitable for up to 20 cars.
