We all deserve a moment where time stands still.
So many of our best moments rush on by without pause.
Welcome to Hemsworth Estate. Set in the shelter of centennial trees, Hemsworth Estate is an Edwardian Villa that offers its guests a unique and welcoming experience. Home to New Zealand’s first Hampshire Sheep Stud, it has been lovingly restored with luxury accommodation, romantic gardens and the ability to step back in time. In its seclusion, you’ll experience the distinct feeling of time slipping away as you explore the estate. Hemsworth combines the nostalgia of the past with the modern comforts of the present – the very best of both worlds.
Step foot inside Hemsworth Estate. We aim to extend those moments where memories can be made.
