🥃 We ended Jema's birthday celebrations surrounded by friends tasting incredible whisky with Nick and from the fantastic in Nelson 🥂

This was such an incredible experience and we can't wait to ask them back to offer it to you! 👏 Would you like to try a whisky tasting in a 1911 Homestead? 👇

We need your help planning our Camp Hemsworth Dinner themes!

Calling all women who love any excuse to dress up and dream of escaping to country manor with your girls 🙋‍♀️ ok good, we're all here? We're treating the ladies who attend our Winter Camp to cocktails and canapes in the drawing room followed by a 3-course dinner. And we need to pick two!

Rebecca's current ideas include...
🇫🇷 Parisian Bistro
Think french 75s with gougeres, french onion soup starters, and chocolate mousse

🍷Everything Wine
Start with mulled wine as an aperitif, followed by a wine themed menu including beouf Bourguignon, and red wine poached pears

👑 English Country Manor
G&Ts to start, followed by a proper country roast dinner

🎄Mid Winter Christmas
Holiday spritzes followed by the glazed ham and all the trimmings you can imagine.

Other ideas include Martha Stewart, Mob Wife, Witchy Night??

Tell us below your ideas or your two favourites from above! 👇

Today we took our very own english Jem claybird shooting with Neil from New Zengland for her birthday! This was so much fun and even Rebecca who has very little sports hand eye coordination has some great shots thanks to the expert tutelage of Neil. The week's celebrations aren't over yet so stay tuned for what else we get up to!
