The field entrance fee (day pass) during the summer is paid on the gate, £6 adults £3 children 5 – 12 years old .  There are no pre booked tickets needed (except for talks) so obviously some days  and times will be busier than others, but as the field is a large area , it is able to accommodate everyone.

Unfortunately we cannot accommodate coaches./ mini buses

 Opening times will be:

Field is cleared from 4.15 pm PLEASE NOTE WE CLOSE the gates PROMPTLY AT 4.30 pm we are closed all day every Monday and Tuesday

Please be aware this is a working field, with badgers/ rabbits and moles etc, so the ground is uneven in places and in wet weather the grass maybe slippery, please wear appropriate shoes/ boots.

Children must be supervised at all times, as the lavender plants get damaged if they are jumped on! this is bad for the plants and spoils it for others too.

There are only grass paths around the field, so be aware if using a wheelchair or pushchairs, however the lavender can be viewed from all areas fairly easily, the field is a short walk from the car parking area, so should be accessible for those with limited mobility.

We share the lavender with lots of wildlife, particularly bees, so do take care, and full responsibility of yourselves if you are walking close to the lavender and touching it!

We do NOT allow picking of the lavender, but there will be lavender bunches for sale, subject to availability on the day.

Please respect the privacy of our neighbours and do not go too close to the back boundary of the field

The Lavender Cafe … please see separate page

Our pond has deep water so please keep children under close supervision at all times . NO SWIMMING or paddling is permitted, it is for wildlife only!

Lavender Farm
visits to the farm

Warwickshire Lavender Farm started out in 2016, as a dream hobby for retirement, to provide a beautiful environment and to give Ian’s 3 bee hive residents some lovely foraging, to produce the much sought-after lavender honey, and to create a beautiful, relaxing space for our visitors’ health and wellbeing.

If you would like to learn a little more about how and why we set up the farm … Here is us on The One Show, it was filmed on June 25th 2024

We hope you enjoy visiting online or in person our beautiful little farm and charity cafe, that is on an ever-improving journey.

We look forward to welcoming you!

THE Lavender flower field has all been harvested, so the flowers will next be in full bloom next June 2025! However you are welcome to wander around the ‘sleepy’ field when you visit the lovely Lavender Cafe
