Chasing lavender fields
Bridestowe lavender farm is definitely a must-see in Tasmania. Was lucky to catch the lavender in full bloom and it was gorgeous!! The farm is actually quite huge so there are plenty of lavender around. Get your cameras and phones ready because every corner is picturesque!
Would be great to go early morning or later in the afternoon as it may be abit sunny and hot during the noon. Perfect weather for a lavender ice cream!

Located on Mount Arthur in northern Tasmania, Bridestowe Lavender Farm is the largest private lavender estate in the Southern Hemisphere. The lavender here is broadcasted in the mountains, with the terrain rising and falling, the S-shaped curve is very beautiful.
1921, the English immigrants came to Lilydale, Tasmania, where lavender seeds were planted and reproduced. The climate of the island of Provence is very similar, so the lavender plantation here is quite successful.
Due to the seasonal opposite of the northern and southern hemispheres, the mature harvest period of Tasmanian lavender is January of each year, so the best viewing season here is the twelve flowers that have not yet been harvested. month. Christmas is the best time to New Year's Day!
The day we arrived was December 20th, the blue sky and white clouds, the weather was just right. Lavender is ripening and blooming, and the garden is full of fragrant fragrance, the same feeling as Valensoller who visited Provence at the end of June!
Come to Lavender Manor, don't you miss the lavender ice cream produced here? The ice cream cart is near the farm's service center, with 5 single balls and 9 double balls. Tourist service centers also sell lavender products.
After the tour, eat a light meal on the farm, the restaurant has an outdoor seating, you can breathe the lavender aroma. Tall old oak trees, undulating lavender fields, and Arthur Hill in the distance, a ticket for 10 knives per person can be seen in such a beautiful scenery, and it is worth the price.

Bridestowe Lavender Estate
#australiatrip A nice drive out of Launceston. You pay $20 pp at the gate and drive through up to the carpark. The farm is huge, stunning views of the rows and rows of lavender. Nice walk around to take photos and watch the lavender being harvested. The Cafe is great, well priced. We had the lavender latte and scones . A cute gift shop on site too. Lovely afternoon out

Tasmania is an island state in Australia. The lavender farm here is called Bridestowe lavender field, located about 50 km from Lauceston city, northeast of Tasmania.
Surprisingly beautiful lavender fields in Tasmania - Australia
The history of Bridestowe lavender field began when Mr. C.K Denny - a famous British perfume maker and his family moved to Lilydale, Tasmania - a place about 17 km from the current flower field. As a perfume manufacturer, Mr. Denny had long cherished the plan to turn this place into a flower field like in the French Alps and they set out to do it. The name of the flower field is Bridestowe after Mrs. Denny's hometown in England.
Mr. and Mrs. Denny's flower fields have soil and conditions similar to those in France. At that time, the lavender oil and perfume manufacturing industry was developing, demand was extremely high while raw materials were limited. In 1924, after successfully harvesting and distilling the first batch of lavender oil, Mr. Denny sent samples to London for testing. The results show that the quality of lavender essential oil in Tasmania is not inferior to the quality of essential oil in France. His family continued farming and in 1947 expanded lavender cultivation on a large scale.
In 1989, when Mr. Denny retired and the lavender field was sold to the Ravens family with a commitment to maintain the product and quality of lavender as under the Denny family's management. Therefore, up to now, Bridestowe lavender field has existed for more than 90 years.
Coming to Tasmania, there are not only giant lavender fields but also other interesting places such as: The Hartz Mountains national park with incredible alpine moors; Tasman Peninsula - witness of the colonial period of Australian history or Ben Lomond and Mount Mawson national parks. Wild nature and breathtaking landscapes will certainly make visitors love the beautiful Australian island of Tasmania.

The Bridestowe Lavendar Estate, the world's largest commercial lavender estate.
The large lavender park has faded the color of the flower season. It is not purple. It is recommended that everyone go to the purple flower fields in the mountains from December to January every year.
Souvenir shop's "Net Red Lavender Ice Cream" must not be missed, the aroma is rich, the taste is sweet, one person can eat a whole branch; "Net Red Lavender Bear" is very cute, almost one person, Yaya also bought one. When I learned this little bear in the past, it was really very popular as a big one. I heard that I bought a few years ago, and each person is limited to one, but now it is not limited.
Lavender essential oils and other skin care products are also worth taking away, the quality of natural plants, I hope you don't miss this romantic purple flowering time

In January, when Shanghai was still stabbing in the winter, Tasmania in the southern hemisphere was in midsummer. Not only was the temperature suitable, but also the open season of lavender, the Bridestowe Lavender Estate lavender estate ushered in the most beautiful year. time.
Bridestowe is located in northern Tasmania, 51 km from Launceston, the second largest city in Tasmania, and about 40 minutes by car. Although the flowering period has been entered since the beginning of December, the flowering fields can only be seen from the end of December to the middle of January.
In addition to the beautiful lavender, the souvenir shop here is also worth visiting, not only lavender sachets, skin care products and herbal teas, but also delicious lavender ice cream. Of course, the most not to be missed is the famous lavender bear.
