Travel and lifestyle PR agency Eight Communications is pleased to announce its appointment as the public relations agency for Saddles Mount White, the iconic restaurant and estate located in the Central Coast hinterland of New South Wales.

Eight Communications has been engaged to lead strategic communications for Saddles Mount White, supporting the next phase of growth for the destination restaurant and its surrounding estate, including the launch of luxury lodges later this year. The scope of work includes media relations, brand storytelling, influencer engagement and campaign development to elevate Saddles’ positioning as one of New South Wales’ most distinctive dining and hospitality destinations.

Eight Communications Founder and Managing Director, Angela Cowley, said the team was delighted to be partnering with Saddles Mount White.

“Saddles has to be one of the most beautiful places in NSW. The setting is stunning and tranquil, the food is fantastic, the macaws are mesmerising, there’s just something so magical about being there, and we are thrilled to be partnering with the team to shine a spotlight on this incredible place.

“The work the team has been doing in the events space is equally outstanding – from drive days to brand launches, weddings and all kinds of private events, the possibilities are enormous and we’re excited to draw more attention to it.

“With the lodges launching later this year, Saddles is going to become one of the most talked-about destinations in the country, and we can’t wait to help tell that story.”

Located on a picturesque property in Mount White, just over an hour from Sydney, Saddles Mount White has become a much-loved dining destination known for its relaxed country hospitality, seasonal menus and beautiful setting within the surrounding landscape. With new developments underway across the estate, including the introduction of luxury accommodation, the venue is entering an exciting new chapter.

Created by Australian entrepreneur John Singleton, the estate spans approximately 10 hectares of bushland and centres around a striking homestead-style restaurant designed to blend seamlessly with the surrounding landscape.

Named one of the most beautiful restaurants in the world,  with a design inspired by classic Australian rural architecture and an expansive wraparound deck overlooking a picturesque dam and gardens, Saddles celebrates a “paddock-to-plate” philosophy, showcasing seasonal Australian produce.

The estate also includes Saddles Barn, a beautifully restored barn-style venue that hosts weddings, celebrations and private events, further cementing Saddles’ position as a destination for memorable gatherings and countryside hospitality.

Since launching in 2018, Eight Communications has experienced sustained growth and is now regarded as one of Australia’s leading lifestyle PR agencies. The agency represents a growing portfolio of international and domestic clients across the travel, hospitality, F&B, property and entertainment sectors.

Recent appointments include InterContinental Sydney Coogee Beach, Solotel (including restaurants Chiswick, Barangaroo House and North Bondi Fish), Holman Barnes Group, voco Gosford, Crowne Plaza Geelong and Crowne Plaza Melbourne Carlton. These join an established roster of leading brands such as Pan Pacific Hotels Group, AAT Kings, Royal Davui Island Resort and Daydream Island Resort.
