About this space

Cottage Lawns is a private outdoor space in HostCo Sydney, featuring a sheltered lawn framed by mature planting.

Design: The lawn occupies a formal garden of clipped hedging, shaped shrubs and mature trees that create distinct outdoor rooms. The setting is edged by low stone steps and period building facades that give a restrained, institutional character.

Features: The space includes on-site Wi‑Fi, abundant natural daylight across the lawn and a PA system with speakers for announcements or music. The ground combines an open grass surface and perimeter paving to support temporary furniture and equipment. The space provides several path-level access points for deliveries and guest movement.

Ideal for: This lawn suits intimate to mid-sized standing receptions and relaxed, social gatherings that benefit from an open garden layout.

What guests say: The lawns are presented as well maintained and visually striking.

The staff were really friendly, the venue was small and perfect for the size of the event and most of all, Tran Howlett, whom we interacted with as a point of contact, was so helpful in helping us plan and execute our event. On the day, all we really did as hosts was show up, enjoy the event and leave because everything else was taken care of.
