What they said....
Perth Horse and Carriage had the pleasure of working with Amarlou Homestead for a very special birthday girl. They went above and beyond expectations for the fairy princess inspired theme and we wouldn't hesitate to recommend them.
Lara, Perth Horse and Carriage
We all absolutely loved yesterday. The food, the gardens, the set up, the service was all exquisite. Thank you for having us and I'm sure there will be plenty returning. Holly was so happy and everyone commented on how special it was.

Thank you so very much for hosting we four on Sunday to a beautiful high tea. All parts were so enjoyable, your food perfect, surrounds very accommodating and relaxing.. sorry we overstayed the 2 hrs! Congratulations to you and Mark on your beautiful property and best wishes for the success of your new business.
Sue & David K
What a lovely time we had. I would never have thought of going around the back roads of Baldivis to find such a gem. The high tea was the best ever.. so scrumptious! My taste buds came alive once more! The venue was so peaceful and relaxing. The meal was so well presented and the taste was something to die for. Courses were generously spaced out allowing our conversation to fill the gaps. It was all so lovely and I know how much work must have also gone into the gardens and landscaping. The two Austin trucks were quite intriguing and I noticed the textured paper for the menu, excellent choice and taste. A wonderful and unique experience, thank you so much!

Thank you for the most delicious and memorable afternoon tea Louise. I wanted to spoil my dear friend for all she has done for me and the experience was everything I hoped it would be and more! Even the inclement weather didn't rain on our parade as tea in the piano room was simply perfect! Thank you also for organising a special gluten free menu for me, it was so wonderful to be able to enjoy all your delights without missing out on certain items. A thoroughly delicious experience in so many ways!

FAQs
Do you cater for special dietary requirements?
We can prepare vegetarian and gluten free menus. Please request at time of booking.
Are children allowed at your high teas and private events?
We hold our Enchanted Garden Parties on Thursday and Friday afternoons, which are especially designed for the little ones (aged 8 and up). However, due to the open water, delicate china and hot pots of tea, unfortunately we cannot accommodate children under 8. Thank you for your understanding. Please note: We are happy to discuss younger children attending as part of wedding ceremonies.
