Lavandula Lavender Farm - Daylesford

Made the beautiful picturesque drive to Daylesford to visit Lavandula Lavender Farm Lavandula Swiss Italian farm.  Was just gorgeous!! as the pictures will attest and just 10 mins north of Daylesford it makes for a beautiful summer picnic especially if you love lavender as much as I do!

The fragrance is just heavenly and it looks beautiful.
The best time to visit is before the harvest festival when the Lavender is in full bloom.


They have a gorgeous shop selling everything from potpourri to old fashioned quaint crockery and a whole range of lavender based products from oil, to creams.








There was a gorgeous rope bridge at the entrance over a little stream, which my little Indiana Jones couldn't resist walking on, back and forth at least a dozen times!










Lunch at Trattoria cafe at Lavandula a tasting platter filled with produce from the onsite farm!

EMU spotting! My 2 year old was absolutely delighted!
 On the way to Daylesford my little darling puked all over her clothes, had to buy her a change at Colour me Cooper Store in Daylesford. Loving her "mini" maxi :). And thanking God for whoever invented wet wipes and anti bacterial aerosol sprays!

Entry view of the farm 
Inside Trattoria cafe, room with a view indeed!! Loved the ceiling!


Whatever you do do not forget to get a waffle cone of some truly out of this world Lavender icecream! It tasted just delightful!
