What's On: Tea at Athenree

Good morning Sunners, so maybe you're looking for something relaxing to do after the Rugby World Cup final between the All Blacks and Australia.

Why not head to Athenree House & Station for some of their famous Devonshire teas. Based on Athenree Rd, Tours of Athenree Homestead have a track built earlier this year to checkout – with the recently-relocated railway station open, offering a slice of locomotive history and refreshments.

Athenree Homestead Trust spent much of 2014 relocating the station from the property entranceway to behind the homestead and converting it to refreshment rooms, complete with a commercial kitchen.

So why not head over to Athenree this afternoon, the refreshment rooms open from 1pm to 4pm and try their Athenree tea. It's sure to be a relaxing visit.

If this isn't your 'cup of tea” excuse the pun then checkout some of the many other activities happening in the Bay.
