Missed out on one of our High Teas? ๐Ÿฅน Read on, her Missed out on one of our High Teas? ๐Ÿฅน Read on, here's how to make sure you don 't have FOMO in the future ๐Ÿ‘‡

๐Ÿ—“ A new season of events is announced!
We release the schedule a season ahead of time, sometimes this isn't possible with a last minute event pop up, but usually our next season of events is live on the website for you to see what's on, and have time to organize plans with loved ones and pricing is also confirmed at this time. 

๐Ÿ’Œ Tickets are released to our previous customers:
On the Monday 6 weeks before the event, we send an invitation to those who have been to the previous event I.E If you attended a Mother's Day High Tea, you would be notified first for the next Mother's Day High Tea. 

๐Ÿพ Tickets are released to Willow's Newsletter subscribers
Those who read Willow's antics every Wednesday are next to be offered tickets in the Wednesday newsletter following ticket release.

๐Ÿ“ฑ 24 hours later, we announce on social media, and publish ads. 

This timeframe shortens if there is a new event we've added to the schedule due to demand, or if there's no previous clients to email.

To summarise:
1. If you're a previous customer, we value your support and offer you first choice. 
2. If you receive our weekly newsletter, we value your loyalty and offer you tickets before the general public.
3. If you follow us on social media, you may hear about the release of tickets next, but the algorithm isn't under our control so we can't guarantee this. 

๐Ÿ™ We hate disappointing folk, and Rebecca knows she's about to have phone calls from now until Mother's Day from caring people trying to treat the women in their loves to a lovely day. But we're just one Homestead, and two women hosting this day and have limited capacity.

๐Ÿพ If you'd like to subscribe to Willow's newsletter so you can snap up tickets in the VIP line, let us know below and we'll get you sorted! ๐Ÿ‘‡ (You're definitely going to want to read Willow's next newsletter, it's an exciting one)
If you have never experienced High Tea at Hemswort If you have never experienced High Tea at Hemsworth Estate, you're in for a treat! Our experience is very different from going into a restaurant or hotel. 

Once a month over the cooler seasons, we open our 4th generation historic family home to the public for high tea. There's limited numbers, and a fresh seasonal menu that's different every time.

If warm, friendly hosts, a detailed history, generous helpings and "the real deal" when it comes to antique linens, furniture, china and silverware is your cup of tea, we'd love to welcome you to Hemsworth Estate for our next high tea.

We're currently accepting bookings for our Autumn and Mother's Day High Teas and tickets will open for our other ones 6 weeks before each event.

Have you been to high tea with us? What else would you tell someone about to visit for the first time?
