I was dubious when I arrived. I had seen everything within 15 minutes. I took a walk around the lavendar fields and watched the bees busily working. And then I really got my value for money: the distillery talk! About an hour and 15minutes of fantastic information and entertainment. Don't forget to schedule your visit to take in one of the talks at either 11:30 or 15:00. I didn't think that I could be captivated for over a hour about a plant but the passion with which the gentleman spoke warrants 5 stars. Don't forget to take a look around Ron's Garden: it's free and well worth a look. Kids will love the fairy kingdom. -read moreread lessBernadette G.Lovely place to visit in the summer, can't get enough of the beautiful view of the lavender, the scent of it and great walk. Easy access to the cafe and Reg's Garden is very close by too -read moreread lessPeter G.A lovely place well worth a visit for 2 or 3 hours. Look on the website and try and go when one of the free tours is on. I think they are around 11.30 and 3.30 but please confirm this before going -read moreread less - Sheila H.Lovely place to visit. We went when there was not much lavender in bloom but it was still worth going! Lovely wild flowers in the fields - a great walk! Bonkers cockerels!
Smashing cafe and lovely woods and gardens to admire. Then the shop full of things you would buy for Christmas stockings. Nice people! The lavender oil process is explained in a small barn. -read moreread lessAnn J.Lovely place. We sat through the talk which was very interesting. Then walked around the fields.

The friendly farmer provided a well informed presentation on the history of the farm and the process involved in the growing and harvesting of lavender. Sweet tea room, offering home cooked goodies.

- Gemma W.Very pleasant trip to the Lavendar farm when it was too windy to enjoy the beach. Its small, but cute. We went late in the season so only one variety of lavendar was still in bloom. Its a grass roots operation, great distillery talk (they run twice a day at 11am and 3 pm). The talk is essential to get value for money. Entrance is £5.90 for adults and free for children 16 years and under. The gift shop is fantastic! Many unique gifts you won't find elsewhere. It's really good knowing all the lavender products they sell come from their fields. The poor reviews aren't warranted, it's a working farm that focuses on the product. It's not a large farm, but it's Jersey, not the South of France! If the entrance fee puts you off, a visit to the gift shop is enough to please any lavender lover. -read moreread lessLyn T.Always a lot of fun. Feeding the chickens and listening to the staff. Cafe makes there own dishes . -read moreread lessMargaret W.Beautiful sweet smelling lavender grows here and the shop sells loads of products from little bags to marmalade all filled or made from it.

Chickens and scones. Best to go in late June or July when the lavender is in bloom and the scent consumes the air around the farm. The crazy chickens roam everywhere always on the lookout for a few crumbs of food. Lovely scones in the cafe, even lavender flavoured if you want but traditional fruit was fine for us. Free to wander round the gardens with lots of photo opportunities, l All in all a great way to spend a few hours. -read moreread less
Kasanita Funny chicken We had a lot of fun there.
The farm is interessting but there is more.
They have a lot of chicken, you can feed them. They have all sices anf colors, even tiny ones.
On the way arround you can go to Reg's garden - you will be surprised.
We spend there two hours. -read moreread lessJeffreyC189 Relaxing few hours Didn't know if it would be worth a visit but was pleasantly surprised. Nice cafe and gift shop selling own products. If you go make sure you sit in on the talk given by a member of staff as it is very informative and he is quite a character. I didn't know there were so many varieties of lavender. Well worth a visit if you have a few hours to spare. -read moreread less -

Lovely place Great visit to the Jersey Lavender Farm. We went during the season when they offer a talk and demonstration twice a day. Very informative and interesting. The tea has delicious Lavender shortbread too. -read moreread less
Charlotte M. Great! Just made it in time for the distillation talk for the season (26/8).
Highlight of our trip was indeed the distillation talk by the owner. It was very interesting and he made it so easy to understand and kept our full attention for over an hour. Providing us with samples to smell, think and compare. Commenting not just about lavender and its uses but the aroma industry as a whole. As a food scientist I appreciated the chemistry and information and could see the overlap with food and perfumery industries. He even mentioned one of the aroma/flavour houses that I had visited through work in the UK.
Shop as ever full of interesting products and good value. We purchased three packs of lavender fudge. Delicious it only lasted a few minutes.
Our two daughters had fun feeding the cocks, hens and very cute chicks. The whole site was delightful - colourful interesting flowers and plants and calming lavender fields surrounded the main site.
This was our second visit and well worth it. Next time we would like to do the audio tour and maybe come a different time of year before the harvest finishes mid Aug.
Also would like to try the cafe with lavender based goodies.
Note: the flowering season is not all year round. Flowers can be viewed late May to around mid July prior harvesting. -read moreread less -

Lovely place to visit.
Not just about the lavender growing, but about the farm history, the processes they use and the products they manufacture.
Pay to go around the garden.
Have a cake and beverage in the coffee shop, it’s so peaceful. -read moreread lessacetrainer2014 Worth a visit. I like cooking with lavander so we visited. Interesting video on the the farm and we saw some being harvested. -read moreread less - yorktraveller_8 Great place for a few hours This is well worth a visit. It costs £5.95 for an adult (kids under 16 are free). The farm is in a lovely setting, with nice gardens and fields of lavender! I would certainly time my visit around one of the talks (11.30 or 3pm) as these are informative and make the experience much better.
The smell at the place is amazing, and there are lots of products to smell (and buy!). There is a great cafe that serves wonderful scones and lemon cake, with good coffee.
Overall, well worth a visit and allow about 2 to 3 hours. -read moreread lessKelty1 Worth a visit We visited the farm before the lavender was in full bloom. Even taking this on board we felt a wee bit disappointed that there only seemed to be one field.
The gift shop was well stocked with a variety of goods to suit every taste and pocket.
The cafe was very good and we enjoyed a light lunch there. -read moreread less2018Poppet Jersey Lavendar Farm We visited the Lavendar farm this morning. It is definitely worth a visit but I would say ensure you visit at a time when you can listen to the talk (11:30am and 3pm). The talk was very interesting and quite amusing at times. There are very friendly chickens wandering around and a pen with guinea pigs in. Also a trail to follow. -read moreread less - 949johni Interesting place to visit. Very nice people at lavender farm.

Maureen J. Interesting experiences I must tell you I didn't know if I should have written this review, however my husband and I went and visited in summer during a delightful holiday in Jersey. What greeted us was a glorious and bountiful display of lavender. I have personally been fascinated by lavender and its medicinal and culinary uses since I was a small girl. I thoroughly enjoyed my day out, and also experienced an excellent cup of tea at the wonderful cafe.
Despite this, the gypsy-esque cart was a little peculiar, but this was not a real issue. The thing that somewhat ruined the day for me was that I could see a young man "pleasuring himself" in one of the downstairs rooms of the on-site house. Luckily this happened as I was concluding my visit and was leaving the farm and so the day out itself was not spoiled. I was prompted to leave this review by my husband and would like to say that despite it all, it provided us with a good chuckle and I would certainly recommend the farm to lavender fanatics and I hope to return when I next visit the gorgeous island of Jersey.
