About “Springfield”
Located on The Liverpool Plains, 90km south-west of Tamworth and just four hours drive from Sydney, “Springfield” is a fully functioning cropping and cattle property that has been farmed by The Hockey family since 1947; and is currently operated by brothers, James and Michael.
Formerly part of renowned “Breeza Station”, the Springfield was established over 100 years ago as an out-station for the once 130,000 acre property.
About us
We’re The Hockey’s! In 2016, we (Michael and Laura) restored The Springfield Woolshed for our own wedding. Together, with our young children Willow, Hunter and Charlie, we live and work at Springfield. Over the past few years we’ve hosted a few events at Springfield Woolshed, requested by friends within our local community. We couldn’t watch this beautiful space sit vacant, so have chosen to share it with other couples, businesses and communities who are looking for a private and versatile venue to hold an event.
