About
Schnelle Fakten: Rows of lavender form vivid purple ribbons across the slopes, their scent turning a warm breeze into a soft, perfumed hug. Local soft-serve ice cream infused with lavender provides a cool, floral contrast to bright summer sun, and the gift shop sells sachets and oils pressed from the blooms.
Highlights: Rows of Hidcote and Grosso lavender are planted in tight stripes, and during peak bloom staff hand-cut roughly 10,000 stems each morning for fresh bouquets sold only at the farm. Close-up, leaves smell resinous and slightly camphor-like, while the tiny purple flowers release a sweet, almost citrus top note that turns the air into a perfume you can taste on your lips.
Insider tips
- Wear comfortable shoes and a light windproof layer, the hilltop breeze can be strong.
- Arrive before 8:30 AM or after 4:00 PM to avoid the largest tour-bus crowds and get better light.
- Head to the upper terraces and the viewpoint near the shop for sweeping purple panoramas and mirror-like composition shots.
- Buy the lavender soft-serve early, then explore the fields while queues are shortest at the stalls.
