“Thanks Lady Hemsworth and Butler Smythe. Everyone had a brilliant evening – a sure sign of success. Thanks for everything.” – Sonya
“We stepped back in time for an unforgettable evening of vintage intrigue and lively social fun at a glamorous 1920s-style villa. Hosted by the ever-elegant ladies of Hemsworth Estate, guests arrived dressed to the nines, ready to mingle, dine, and put their sleuthing skills to the test. The night was filled with delicious food, fierce (but friendly) competition, and plenty of laughs as everyone played their part in unravelling a thrilling mystery. With flapper fashion, roaring ’20s charm, and a touch of mayhem, it truly was a night to remember!” – John & Heather
