Hemsworth Estate

Hospitality Quiet setting

Huge room, interesting house history, delicious breakfast, lovely hostesses. Very cute and obedient dog.

Garden needs more upkeep but the owners are working on it and improving the aesthetics

Our hosts, Rebecca and Gemma, were so generous with their home, time and hospitality. The room was extremely comfortable and roomy. It was so lovely to have electric blankets and an excellent hot shower to keep away the cold. In the morning a very sumptuous breakfast greeted us and we enjoyed strolling through the beautiful grounds on the farm, which is lovingly maintained. My Mum and I thoroughly enjoyed spending time with Willow and Evie the fur babies. Thank you Rebecca and Gemma.

Hemsworth Estate is set on a farm, has a storied history that the managers honor and it is lovely and comfortable with a bounty of luxurious touches. The operators are charming.

Good variety for continental breakfast. Friendly hostesses who would let you chat or respect your privacy when needed. Freedom of access while remaining secure. Small touches to make your stay individual.

Quiet, peaceful, lovely grounds, and only 8 minutes to Ashburton. Only 30 minutes to Mt. Somer hiking. House and rooms have all been recently renovated and are beautiful. Bed was very comfortable. Breakfast was outstanding. Rebecca and Jemma were lovely hosts. Highly recommend over staying in Ashburton given all of the above.

Everything about our stay was perfect. From the beautiful bedroom all the way through to the perfect breakfast. We could not have expected more. The property is a botanical treasure with a grand garden. The home is a fine example of Arts & Crafts architecture. Just a wonderful experience with our hosts welcoming us with charm and generous hospitality. There was excellent local information provided to enhance our stay. We would unhesitatingly recommend this property when in this part of New Zealand.

Lovely old homestead set in beautiful grounds. Huge bedroom with a great ensuite. Breakfast was fit for a King - too much choice if anything! Lovely welcoming hosts with a family connection to the property makes for a real home stay. They welcome you into their home and share it with you. A pleasure and a privilege to stay here.
