Still in Full Bloom at Hitchin Lavender

What better way to spend a day out? Glorious sunshine this morning and a lavender field out in full flower.

The fields are in full bloom and don't get much better than this, so if you're looking for a family day out in or around Hitchin (or within 45 minutes of London) then come along and say hi. Entrance is just £4 for an adult and you can pick a bag of lavender to take home.

The fields are great for photography, butterfly watching or just walking around listening to the bees and skylarks.

Oh and don't forget the tea room and gift shop so you satisfy your sweet tooth as well as your eyes!

Unfortunately the sunflowers have fallen victim to the spring drought and won't be making an appearance this year :-(

  2. Maybe one solitary lonely one but unfortunately the whole field was decimated by the drought
