MARGARET’S HOPE Perhaps one of Darjeeling’s most romantic estates with a uniquely poignant and touching memory. Margaret's Hope was owned by one Mr. Cruickshank who visited it in the 1930s with his two young daughters. Margaret, the younger daughter, instantly fell in love with the tea-estate and was heartbroken to leave it, but HOPED that one day she would return there. Unfortunately, during the return voyage back home to England, Margaret fell ill on-board and died. In her memory, her father changed the name of the tea-estate to Margaret's Hope Tea Estate.
