Beautiful farm, not only lavender but also olives and other produce. Including some animals such as a pig, chickens, alpacas, ostrich.. there is a shop and a cafe. Relaxing and fresh atmosphere. Food are ok, people are friendly. Festivals attract entertainers and different stalls selling their goods in the farm. Been here several times. There is a small entry fee but each time we thoroughly enjoyed it. Perfect for young family too although there are only 2 toilets available. More with portable ones during festivals.
