Champagne High Tea at Historic Ormiston House

May 15, 2021, 1:30 PM – 3:30 PM

Birthplace of the Australian Commercial Sugar Mill

Guests will experience a relaxed setting on the verandas so positioned to capture the view of Moreton Bay to North Stradbroke Island enjoyed by the occupants of this historic house built between 1862 and 1865. The original slab hut, one of the earliest buildings constructed on the property in 1853, still stands today and, together with the main house, are set amongst beautiful heritage gardens.

While visitors enjoy a delicious High Tea, a guest historian will bring stories of this historic place to life. Afterwards, guests can explore the historic house, with volunteer guides revealing stories about the past whilst roaming the heritage gardens.
