Fantastic tea experience with beautiful views, friendly and attentive employees. We can’t wait to return!

Well maintained and very informative of history not taught to our children or schools. A legacy of survival and business for the South Carolina and those who worked with the Topseewee family
Krista Candelaria
The most honest plantation tour I have ever had the experience of being part of. Truth, love and honesty are my takeaways from Yancy’s tour. Thank you for making me experience worth every single penny.

I love this place they grew indigo and rice, slave cabins, inside house tour. If you like history go see Hopswee

The museum component had well-done displays and focused on the slavery history with rice cultivation, not much about indigo. The plantation house was nicely decorated and had a lot of information to read. This could easily have been a self guided tour with a docent available to answer questions. Our docent shared quite a lot of his personal opinion about things vs simply stating facts, which was a bit off-putting. I am sure every docent is different. Bring mosquito spray. There was some available outside the tea room, but the nozzles did not work. The can at the plantation house did though. The tea room was busy and looked delightful, but we did not eat there. There were picnic tables so would make a nice picnic place with mosquito spray for sure. There are beverages for sale in the gift shop. We bought our tickets on line, very convenient!

Amazing experience and a truly beautiful plantation. We did the full tea service and everything was wonderful. The staff are very friendly and knowledgeable. We will definitely be back for lunch.

This was my first Plantation Tour and I was so amazed! From the mossy trees, to the beautiful home and charming Tea Room who had the most welcoming, sweet ladies serving us. It was like stepping back into time. We learned so much about both the families who lived in the plantation to the families of servants. Definitely recommend!

With family visiting from Oklahoma and Georgia, I had to share the magic of Hopsewee! It did not disappoint! My 9 year old granddaughter was mesmerized by docent, Linda. She tailored the history of Hopsewee to her understanding and my granddaughter was so intrigued with the legacy of Thomas Lynch! Deb welcomed us with such wonderful hospitality and attentively addressed our every wished as we dined on the exquisite cuisine ! Hopsewee is a must in time travel!

Our first time visiting and we could not be happier with the whole experience. Elizabeth our tour guide was was very knowledge and you could tell she was so passionate about the property. The Tea was out of this world! From our waitress Deb to the food everything was superb

The Art of Indigo Dyeing Workshop was fascinating and informative. The instructor Linda was full of knowledge and while she gave us guidance, she also encouraged our own creativity. What a fun way to spend the afternoon, and I'm so pleased with the dyed items I created.

OMG!! I took my friend who was visiting from Germany to Ms. Beverly's Basket Class. We both enjoy ourselves soooo very much. Thank you Hopsewee for providing this wonderful experience. A piece of SC Gullah Culture is traveling to Germany.
