Dog-Mum’s High Tea
We invite you and your dogs to a very special Mother’s Day High Tea – for dog mums! This is the perfect setting in our Ashburton for celebrating and creating new memories with the incredible four-legged children in your life.
Starting at 2:00pm, you’ll be treated to bubbles, a progressive High Tea (both savoury and sweet) featuring mouth-watering morsels made fresh in our kitchen, and your furry companion will be treated to their own cake tier full of Raw and Natural Dog Treats. Sip tea out of fine china, get cozy by the fire and enjoy cuddling up with your fur-child.
This particular high tea is different to our other ones, as each table will most likely have a dog at it. This event is best for dogs who are comfortable in an indoor social environment, where other dogs are present. Tickets will be more limited than our usual high teas to allow for enough space.
Book your table now, this is the only High Tea for dogs in New Zealand and it will sell out fast!
High Tea Includes:
- A glass of bubbles (or non alcoholic cocktail alternative)
- 5 mouth-watering savoury selections
- 4 seasonal sweet treats
- Freshly made scones with jam and cream
- A luxury table setting including vintage linen, bone china and Stirling silverware.
High Tea for dogs includes:
- A separate cake tier of dog treats – all raw, natural or homemade by Best Buddies.
- Their own napkin
- A carob dog-safe hot chocolate
- Depending on size, their own table.
What people say:
“The coolest high tea experience in New Zealand Because you get to bring your dog!” – Escape Video
“Absolutely gorgeous! We had a great night away with our little dog and it was everything we hoped, the high tea was fabulous and breakfast was delish! Felt super welcomed and the house was stunning. Highly recommend!” – Lois Stone
“We can’t think of a nicer overall experience that we’ve had recently that could be better than Hemsworth Estate. Rebecca and Jema were lovely, having the run of the grand villa in the evening was a luxury, the dog friendly-ness of the place was just so wonderful. We booked this as a treat for us and our dog and it absolutely delivered. We would also highly recommend the high tea (people and dog friendly!) and would 100% book again in the future.”– Carli Edgar
“High Tea at Hemsworth Estate is a real treat. Beautiful setting. Delicious food. Something a bit different to try and well worth it.” – Phillipa Young
