Woodlands Heritage and History Tours

Be guided through our heritage listed Mansion as you learn about Woodland’s exciting and captivating history. Hear stories from the early pioneer days of the Smith family and their successful timber mill to the St. Vincent’s seminary era and stories of the lives of the priests including the construction of our 4 metre deep hand dug pool.

Our tours begin on the ground floor as our guides explain how Woodlands of Marburg was established and some of the key owners or buildings through the property. Customers then have the option to view the second floor bedrooms or head downstairs to the famous cellar. (note our Health and Safety conditions).

Standard tours run for approximately 30 mins for groups of 20 people. Larger groups can be split into 2, allowing one group to wonder through our beautiful landscaped grounds while the other group is on the tour.

For those guests that do not want to walk through the grounds, our lounge within the Mansion is available as a waiting area or why not visit our Tommy Smith Café for a hot beverage and snack (during cafe trading hours). This is perfect for first-time visitors or long time lovers of our Woodlands of Marburg Estate.
