We are very excited to be able to open our doors and welcome you back from Saturday 8th January!

Our ever popular Quince Jelly and Guava Jelly has just arrived in store from Zino’s Preserves, so make sure you come and get yours before they’re all gone! The guavas and quinces are all grown on site here at Alberton so they are truly homegrown.

All staff are fully vaccinated to help keep our communities safe and keep our heritage places accessible to as many as possible. Please be aware that all visitors (including children aged 12 years and 3 months or older) to the house and shop will be required to present their My Vaccine Pass for scanning upon arrival, as well as signing in using the Covid Tracer App or manual sign in sheets. A mask will need to be worn for the duration of your visit. Numbers will be limited inside the house and shop so you may need to wait before you can come in, providing the perfect opportunity to explore our wonderful gardens.

We will be operating with reduced opening hours of 10:30am – 4:00pm (last entry at 3:15pm), Wednesday – Sunday, to allow time for enhanced cleaning.

For more information on how our properties will operate under the Covid Protection Framework please visit www.visitheritage.co.nz...

From the team at Alberton, wishing you a very Meri Kirihimete, best wishes for the festive season and a Happy New Year!

The lemon syrup that is poured over these puddings just before you serve them gives it a delicious moistness and the fragrant citrus flavour is irresistible. It also works with oranges instead of lemons and you can replace the sour cream with yoghurt.

You can bake the puddings in advance but don’t make the sugar syrup until you wish to eat it. The pudding reheats well in the microwave for 2-3 minutes. I like to serve it with a dollop of sweetened cream or yoghurt and some poached fruit such as apples or pears.

Merry Christmas
