Today myself and a friend took our kiddies off for a drive to
Hitchin Lavender, it was well worth the drive of an hour as it was just so peaceful there and not over commercialised which was just lovely.
We paid £4 each and were given a carrier bag and scissors and we got to pick some fresh lavender ourselves! which I totally wasnt expecting.
I'll let the photos do the talking :)

If you do fancy a day out though do pop along there, take a picnic and pick up some freshly cut lavender, you'll love it
This is their
website and
facebook page
Looks fab. How calming that must have been.
ReplyDeleteWOW!!!! What a lovely day, a lovely place & great pics!!!

How pretty do those fields look? And you get to cut your own too? Perfect. xx
ReplyDeleteWhat a great sight and not one easily associated with England. Sounds like a fun day. If you do run out of lavender for a craft project shout soon, I have tons to give away.
ReplyDeleteWhat adorable photographs, thank you for sharing, I have a little bucket of lavender in nearly every room in the house and am a hug fan of it. Oh I really need to see the film Gnomeo and Juliet, many people have told me about it since my love affair began with the PPF, so I really must watch it ;)) xxxx
