New Forest Lavender Tearooms in Wiltshire

Absolutely wonderful couple of hours here , beautiful gardens and lovely tea room. We definitely recommended this place and will return 😊

We absolutely loved the cottage gardens, with so much colour & variety. After walking around we visited the cafe. Without doubt I tasted the most delicious cheese & chive scone with butter & chutney, that I've ever had. Would definitely recommend.

Lovely tea room and gift shop, gardens very cute, lovely plants for sale, dogs welcome, staff friendly.

Took a small coach party to the New Forest Lavender Gardens and booked a Cream Tea for the party of fourteen. Each and everyone really enjoyed it, yes scones were out of this world. Very friendly staff, will certainly be back again.

Meiner Meinung nach ein super schöner Garten. Leider aber hat uns der Empfang im Restaurant nocht gefallen - es ist offen bis 16.30 Uhr aber als wir um 15.45 Uhr ankamen, der Hinweis dass sie dann bald schliessen. Es kam uns vor als wollte man uns los werden.

Visited here this morning with a friend and had a lovely coffee and scone, and even bought a jar of honey. The surroundings of the lavender farm are delightful, the staff friendly and efficient. Already looking forward to my next visit.

The wildflower gardens are fabulous and a lot of hard work has gone into extending the gardens. I love the poppy borders but the cornflowers are wonderful. Scones are so light and fluffy, such a treat. I love visiting the gardens and quality plant In the plant centre to take home. One of my favourite gardens to visit so lucky to not live too far away.

We have been going here for years and always loved it, however, we were disappointed on this visit as it no longer feels restful and a hidden gem, but very much buisness focused, disappointing as seemed over priced and sad that the lavender field has not been restored. I wish them well for the future but will probably not go as often as we once did

A hidden delight. We visited the lavender field for afternoon tea and booked the little gazebo which would fit 3 small groups of people. The food was delicious and served promptly. Our two dogs were also well catered for. The plants for sale were amazing

Wonderful little find! I was looking for somewhere to take my Mother-in-law for a cup of tea and found this as we were staying in the New Forest nearby. We arrived with our dogs and the staff were friendly and accommodating to us and the dogs. We were seated outside in their idyllic garden and we had a fabulous lavender themed cream tea and lavender macaroons which were both delicious. They have a tiny gift shop and splendid little garden centre. Although the actual Lavender field does not exist as it used to, we were told they have planted other things in the field which should be in their full glory in July! And yes we bought three Lavender plants from the shop which will always remind us of our visit to this peaceful place. Thank you!

8 adults and. 2 small children sat down to tea to celebrate my Husbands birthday. Our daughter had booked a table which when we arrived was ready for us including a high chair for the 18 month old. We ordered tea, which were all different choices. Service was quick and efficient and the food excellent. After tea we had a look around the gift shop. My daughter was looking for lavender products such as soap or similar. It would have been good to find something but quite understand that this may be difficult. It was unfortunate that we visited in October as of course the lavender was over. Nevertheless we had an enjoyable time looking around the garden, taking photos making for memories of a most enjoyable afternoon. We will certainly return when the lavender is in full bloom and of course partake of another delicious tea. Thank you for a very pleasant afternoon with great memories. Sheila B Nursling Southampton

Heard about this little haven from friends. Nestled in the New Forest this quaint garden tearooms is so peaceful. We only tried the sweet section of the menu. Lavender Shortbread and scone and jam.

Have had breakfast, afternoon tea and Sunday lunch at the tea rooms and all were excellent. Well worth the visit.

No long waits, good service, excellent food (lemon curd cake...mmmmm!) - what's not to like? A lovely setting overlooking the garden which is worth a stroll around as well.

I placed my order at 10.50am for two cheese scones and drinks. The drinks were delivered reasonable promptly but we then waited, waited and waited and just before I was about to ask for a refund the scones appeared. Our drinks had been consumed long before the food appeared. Now they were quite lovely; warm, fresh and tasty but..... A 40 minute wait is unacceptable and the excuse of being a small family business doesn't quite cut it; employ more staff and get organised, the business has grown and they haven't kept up. The prices are high; £4.50 for a cheese scone and if you add 2 slices of bacon this jumps to £7.95; an extra £3.25, this is outrageous. Overall my score reflects, in my opinion, the long waiting times and the ridiculous pricing.

Llamamos en un hermoso día soleado y tuvimos la suerte de conseguir un espacio de estacionamiento. Hubo un aviso en la puerta informando que son un negocio familiar y en un día ocupado habrá un poco de espera. Había muchas mesas en el jardín y era hermoso con lavanda y flores por todas partes, así que vale la pena esperar. Mi novio tenía un bollo, el mejor que hemos tenido en mucho tiempo, y yo tenía la quiche Lorraine con chutney de tomate, que estaba delicioso. Los pasteles no estaban en exhibición, pero los trozos de pastel de lavanda que salían parecían increíbles. Definitivamente recomendaría este lugar.

Llamado a Lavender Tearooms ayer. Hace cola para un espacio de estacionamiento (sí, debería haberme dado cuenta de lo ocupado que debe estar) busca un asiento, vuelve a hacer cola para hacer un pedido, espere, espere un poco más y espere aún más. Cobrar por un bollo de queso 4. 95, definitivamente demasiado! Necesitas la paciencia de un santo que espera que llegue tu pedido, pero ya has pagado, así que te tienen. No te molestes

Either a simple lunch or lots of cake and tea, the main attraction are the fabulous gardens. Take a camera! And money for plants! Really superb coffee served in your own carafe.

Went for coffee this week with mum and dad. Great huge pot of coffee, which meant they could have a couple of cups each. Cheese scones were huge and delicious. Only down side is that they are unable to do soya lattes.

Recientemente fui para el cumpleaños de mi papá. Tuvimos un pastel sin gluten especialmente hecho que era absolutamente delicioso y tenía mermelada de grosella negra en el medio de la esponja. (Mi favorito)El personal era muy atento y es un lugar encantador para la familia.Recomiendo encarecidamente y volveremos cuando la lavanda está fuera.

A magnificent setting midst a Lavender Farm which provides spectacular views across fields of lavender. Sit outside and enjoy the scene or, if the weather is inclement, sit inside. Delightful service by a group of young people, I suspect University Students picking up some pocket money. But they are very good, polite and well informed.

Went with my granny, mum and sister as they had a vegan menu and I’d seen great reviews. Even on a rainy day it was lovely. We all had mains then coffees and cakes. Mains were simple but yummy, cakes were the real highlight. They even asked for feedback on their vegan shortbread they were trying out! (More of a biscuit but still yummy). The gift shop is nice for a peruse... We will need to return when it’s not raining to check out the gardens! Recommend you book as it got full pretty quickly and there was a reservation after ours.

I LOVE this place! Wonderful setting, fab flowers, fantastic food (especially the Lavender scones and lemonade) great service but one disappointment: no baby change facilities ☹️👶🏻

The food is really really god with a lovely range of freshly made items on the menu - good service and friendly staff!

Lovely place with lots of different seating areas outside. Very pleasant inside too. Cakes and biscuits are good but a little over priced.Have been quite a few times before and will return again.A good place to take friends or relatives.Also good for plane purchases at the nursery run alongside the tea rooms. Very healthy plants and not too expensive.

I imagine most visitors to these shores plan on having a typical English “tea”. They could do worse than come to the Lavender Tearooms. I have always loved a good cream tea in a beautiful setting and I was not disappointed. I have lived close to here for 25 years and this is the first time I have visited, it will not be the last!Yes it was busy. However the setting is a beautiful English garden and I thoroughly enjoyed my typical English “tea”.

… on a hot July lunchtime with tables dotted around the delightful garden, most of them miraculously finding some shade.Although they were clearly very busy at a peak time, our order came commendably quickly – plenty of staff and obviously well organised. My wife’s Goat cheese salad, with the local Rosary Ash goat cheese and beetroot salad was excellent in flavour as well as beautifully presented. Sadly, the “Gardeners Lunch” which I had chosen was only the latter. The promised “chunk” of “mature” cheddar was a sliver of very ordinary cheese with very little flavour, the mini pork pie was a cocktail nibble with hardly any flavour at all and the two miniature loaves were pretty to look at but tiny and tasteless. Branston Pickle is OK as a homely touch though, to be honest, there are many far better alternatives readily available these days.I am very happy to try a different take on the conventional ploughman’s lunch. Nevertheless, for £10.95 I would expect rather more.We will certainly return to the delightful New Forest Lavender – but hoping for better things on my plate.

My wife had visited here previously during the week and said how good the food was (light bite). So my wife, eldest son and I visited on a Saturday in June (2018).... scorchio! Needless to say it extremely busy. Not all the seating was shaded and with little other choice we grabbed a table in full sunlight, this was until a shaded table became available and we grabbed it. This made a massive difference as mid day full-sum would not have been nice. I chose a “gardeners lunch” which appeared to be a ploughman’s at I believe £10.95..... it was evident that a gardener is not as hungry as a ploughman! The plate was somewhat sparse, the quality of what was there was good but you could see it was there to make money. Quality..... excellentValue for money..... poorAtmosphere...... livelyService....... wait to get served, poorService..... time from order to delivery..... very good considering the busyness. The menu is geared for minimal preparation i.e. minimal cooking time. Prices probably £1.00-2.00 more than similar elsewhere for the quantity. Wheelchair friendly-ish, bit of nifty steering required. Dog friendly, on a lead and well behaved.

We were recommended this place by a friend and it didn’t disappoint. Beautiful gardens, great plant sales (we spent way too much) and the tea rooms are lovely. Great local produce, reasonably priced and delicious.

Excellent lunch. Individual menu. Something a little different. Scones amazing. Staff working very hard. Very good quality food and service. Despite being very busy staff very pleasant.

Always lovely but now far too busy and that spoils the experience . It can be hard to find a table and now parking is a major issue with many people resorting to parking in the little lane outside.

Found this place by chance and it is so cute. A lovely setting surrounded by beautifully kept gardens. The staff are very welcoming and ensure your visit is a good one. The cream teas are very nice, the lavender scone won’t be for everyone. I would request they offer scones with raisins in as that would seal the 5 stars. The lunch food is good and home made, but is expensive for what it is. The croll sandwich is very nice. At least visit for the cream tea and beautiful surroundings.

We visited with my grandmother, great aunt. It was a beautiful day so we were able to sit outside on a picnic bench with a parasol. The grounds are divine, well looked after and full of beautiful flowers.The food is on par, with lovely homemade cakes which were incredible and the sandwiches were delicious. We ended the visit with a trip to their nursery where we bought some beautiful flowers. Definitely recommend this place!

We were recommended this place, and although it was far too early for the lavender to be out, the cafe was packed and it is easy to see why. We had already had lunch, so had tea and cake (the lavender and coconut was delicious). Lots of tables outside, ideal as we had the dog with us, and seeing some of the lunches coming out to other tables, we will be going back for lunch when next in the area (we were on holiday). The staff are wonderful, especially as I had to drive back as I had dropped an artificial stem of lavender and didn't realise until I got back to the hotel! Luckily it had been found by staff in the nursery near the cafe. Delightful little gem of a place, oh and it's got a gift shop!

One of my favourite places. Gorgeous food - especially the scones and cake! Beautiful gardens - even better in the summer months when the borders are in bloom. Lovely to sit out in the garden in the sun (but nice inside too). Gorgeous plants for sale too. Can't help but go back again and again!!

We took our kids here this afternoon for a treat. My son ordered the chocolate and orange cake and it was incredible. I had lavender scones which were also really lovely and very unique! Everything tasted homemade and the tea room itself was very pretty. The staff were also very friendly and one lady even went out of her way to compliment our kids on their behaviour - which was very touching. Highly recommend!

We had a wonderful lunch and they make amazing lavender macaroons. It's a beautiful place to visit although we found parking a bit difficult. We had our two year old twins with us and thankfully they were well behaved. Upon reflection, I don't think that we'd go with children again.

Just wonderful! A really special place. The food is beautiful and the staff are lovely ! There was no stress, just a lovely relaxed lunch. We will be visiting again very soon !

Nothing better than an afternoon with friends here. Very special cute place Highly recommend and regularly visit

We stopped her when out for a drive on a very rainy day. The sandwiches were excellent, the service good and the ambience was lovely. We even bought some plants and gifts!!

Lots of garden plants to buy. Colourful gardens. Excellent gift shop. A good homemade menu selection for all tastes, eat inside or outside. Free parking

My wife and I have been planning to visit New Forest Lavender Farm & Tea Rooms for almost 10 years since it first open. Unfortunately, living just a few miles away, we never seemed to find the time until today! We arrived just after 10.00 am and, after walking around the gardens which have a traditional cottage feel, made our way to the tea rooms for coffee... only to be tempted by the delicious sounding cakes shown on the specials board. We ordered a cafetiere of coffee, which provided enough for four cups, and two pieces of homemade cake - chocolate fudge for my wife and ginger sponge for me. Having ordered at the counter, it wasn't long before the coffee and cake had arrived and we were particularly impressed at how the cake was presented with sprinkled icing sugar and sprigs of lavender. It may sound simple, but it looked very sophisticated! As the weather was warm and sunny, we were sat outside surrounded by flowers and a very friendly robin who shared a few cake crumbs with me. It was truly idyllic and we could have easily spent the entire day drinking coffee and relaxing in the gardens. The staff were friendly and efficient, and there was also a gift shop selling some unusual items with a country and/or lavender theme. There was even a self-service "cushion box" for those who wanted to be more comfortable while sitting on the wooden chairs! We have never seen this offered anywhere else and, because my wife and I both have some spinals issues, we took advantage of this facility returning the cushions to the box as we left. Should we have waited 10 years before visiting? No! Will we return again in the near future? Most definitely.

Visited the lavender farm at least 4 times and have never been disappointed. The food is excellent and cake sizes are mahoosive!. Beautiful outdoor seating with a lovely view of the farm. (also indoor seating). The staff are always lovely and pleasant. They have plenty of lavender merchandise to buy and also a shop which sells indoor and outdoor plants at good prices. Definitely recommend.

Whilst in the area we were recommended to visit the Lavender Tearooms - - set in beautiful gardens.The only issue was the amount of wasps which is obviously not any fault of the Tearoom and we managed to zip ourselves into a special sealed tent but it did spoil an otherwise excellent visit.I guess this is only a temporary situation and next time we visit the area the wasp season will be over.I was a little surprised however that we were expected to pay to enter the lavender gardens after already paying quite a large amount for our cream teas.

We drove specifically to this place in anticipation of a nice ambiance for cream tea and we weren't disappointed. They have full view tents against the wasps incase it's the season. Very nice place to relax!

A café attached to a small lavender farm and garden centre.The café has grown over time and produces great food, simply done in a lovely setting.Wonderful for a quick lunch, a cup of coffee with friends or a traditional afternoon tea.The building has a few tables but if the weather is nice then sitting outside enjoying the garden is the best option.The menu choice is limited but there are good choices and the portions are generous.

Very good cheese scones, However we did feel that it was quite pricey, especially as a lot of visitors seem to be of pensionable age.

Visited for the first time today. The surroundings were beauty. We tried the cream teas with lavender scones as we're at the Lavender Tearooms! They were delicious but possibly next time I would just have a plain scone as the lavender was slightly stronger than I liked. My only issue was the wasps....at one stage we had 5 on our plates. I appreciate this is somewhat out of the control of staff but it did mar our visit slightly, certainly my little daughter struggled with the wasps. Next time we'd visit.....out of wasp season! Beautiful gardens too and well worth a stroll around.

A peaceful place away from the crowds - a little off the beaten track, but easy enough to find. You can also buy large selection of shrubs. They are very knowledgeable and helpful.

Lovely lunch of smoked salmon bagel and lavender scone with jam and cream - shared between the two of us with plenty to go round. Delicious. And what a beautiful setting to enjoy it in.Pity they don't sell their own lavender products as that would have been the 'icing on the cake'. Still, having said that, the gardens were lovely and the lavender smelled gorgeous. Would certainly go again next year. Really enjoyed it.

We came across the New Forest Lavender Farm by accident as we went for a stroll around the Plaitford area. The tea room (indoors and out) served us tea and cake and, with the aroma of lavender around you, it made for a perfect setting.,

It was very exciting to find a Vegan Menu at New Forest Lavender Tearooms.The setting was beautiful and the staff very friendly and helpful.We started with Pear Juice and a pot of Earl Grey Tea, lunch was one Bagel with Vegan Cream Cheese and Cucumber (side salad and crisps) and one Bagel with Vegan Cheddar Cheese and delish Tomato Chutney (side salad) and finished with a Choc-Orange Brownie which was absolutely perfect. The price for the food is a bit steep for what it is...but it's nice as a one-off.The only problem is that it's difficult to get there on foot (if at a nearby hotel/B&B/campsite) as you have to walk on roads towards oncoming traffic...so I definitely recommend driving!

This place is like an escape from the real world for an hour or two. It's set in some of the most beautiful natural looking grounds you'll ever see. It has great food and the staff are really friendly. I'm not sure, but I think it's family run. I certainly hope so!Take a trip there and escape from the real life, even if just for an hour.

Lovely find thanks to a recommendation. Just enough time to enjoy a cream tea before closing. Scones were delightful with lashings of cream and jam or, is it jam then cream; never can remember.Friendly staff and well kept gardens to have a little walk around. Don't miss this little treasure.

The scones contain lavender, amazing, they are beautiful, really beautiful...this is an amazing tea rooms where you can even take your dogs...

We popped in here on the spur of the moment for a cream tea. It was lovely. They had either plain scones or lavender flavour. I tried the lavender but, to be quite honest I couldn't taste the lavender. The service was excellent. The scones however were lovely. We then had a lovely time walking around the garden and plants.

My husband and I were caravanning a mile away from here and friends recommended The Lavander Tearooms to us. We were delighted with the food and the service and the gift shop was an added bonus. Everything smells of Lavander which is simply heavenly and the log burner makes the whole place so cosy. The pate and warm baguette was so tasty as we're the Lavander cream teas. We will definitely be returning frequently.

We called here after hearing many recommendations and we wanted to try it out before my mother in laws visit. We only had a cheese scone and two drinks but have no hesitation we will be back with the mother in law, just her cup of tea and ours too now! Excellent service, busy, friendly and efficient, nice setting. (I don't think we would order a cheese scone anywhere else now this was so good).

We had a really good time learning new skills with Rachel and Sally. The atmosphere was brilliant and they were both very attentive especially when they helped my niece learn new skills.I have been coming here for years for delicious lunch followed by delicious homemade cakes. The staff are always cheerful and offer such a warm welcome. Thanks too to Melanie and I hope they continue to offer many more events like this in the future.Rachel has always helped with tips on plants and I have recently purchased a large heart shape after seeing an example on display near the garden hut.Thanks once again

Took my Mum and son who was home from uni with his girlfriend. Very pleasant. Good choice and lovely quality food. Service was quick even though it was busy. Had a lovely walk around the farm afterwards

Had a brilliant eve here last night making Christmas wreaths. They all turned out amazing. If you haven't yet booked you need to do so. It was brilliant Thank you Melanie and team.

We stopped for lunch en-route to Milford on sea ,What a delightful venue, although it was out of the lavender season ,it was still in the air,a nice warm welcome from the staff, a good selection on the menu at affordable pricesthe service and the food was excellent, i would certainly recommend a visit to this great tea room,

We love this place, we go there quite often, both cheese and lavender scones are very good. The place is lovely, beautiful flowers, very nice to relax and enjoy a sunny day !

The Lavender Tearooms is set in amoungst some beautiful gardens; Delicious cakes and other eatables. Lovely sitting in and out areas. Would Highly recommend.

Very nice cream tea. A nice bolt hole but seems very popular now so very busy. Lovely gardens to stroll around and a good selection of plants to buy too.

Lovely lunch today. The selection of menu choices has increased since I was there last. I chose the smoked salmon and cheese bagel and it was absolutely delicious. The gift shop is new since I was last year and such a lovely addition. The only slight downfall was speed of service at the till, very slow. But so friendly so I can't really fault it.

I've travelled all over the world & UK & ive never had such a delicious cream tea. The gardens are like heaven. The only negative is that too many people know about this incredible place now - so it can get busy!

Delicious ham hock quiche, plenty of varied seating outdoors, lovely double shot latte, gluten free brownie. Charming, very busy at weekends - small car park, park in road, wild flower lawn is amazing, good quality varied plants in nursery, recommended. Tip:it shuts at 4pm and only takes cash or debit card in cafe !

What a beautiful location and rustic decor with friendly staff and relaxed atmosphere. Food was nicely presented and tasty. We had the salmon bagel and rustic ham roll which came with a nice salad. Coffee was good as well a great place to come and chill out. They also offer a good selection of cakes so come and enjoy

The food and drink served in the tearoom is delicious! There are non- lavender things for people who don't like lavender but for those who do, you're in for a treat! The lavender cakes and biscuits and scrumptious as well as the homemade lavender lemonade. Even the bacon sandwiches are something else! The gardens themselves are very pretty and the plants on display are beautiful. A must for gardeners who love coffee and cake!!

I took my mother for lunch at the new forest lavender tea rooms, once again excellent food and very professional staff. We spent the afternoon looking around the gardens

We came for lunch. We sat on the decking as the weather was glorious. They also have seating on the awns and inside the Tearoom. The menu is varied and homemade. My quiche with sundried tomatoes and mozzarella was truly delicious and came with a beautifully dressed salad and onion preserve. The service is very good which is remarkable considering the number of people eating there. Pick the right time of year and you will be able to see the lavender beds in full flower. However we thought that charging £2 to enter the wild flower garden was not on considering the average prices of menu of the Tearoom is on the high side too. Most of the main dishes are around £2 too much for what they are.

The tea room is one part of this garden. Their are plants and flowers for sale and an opportunity to look around the beautiful gardens. The cakes are home made and many have lavender as one of the ingredients, but not all.

Went to this tea room on a recommendation and it did not dissapoint. The cream tea was divine! Even the lavender scones were delicious. Generous helpings of cream and jam were most welcomed. The staff were very polite and eager to please.The gardens are beautiful - albeit quite small. Entry is £2 pp for charity (kids go free) and on every corner there's a photo opportunity. It's just a shame you cannot walk through the lavender field.The garden centre is also very good with a huge variety of good quality plants. Will definitely be visiting again!

Producten worden huisgemaakt en zijn geweldig. We genoten onder ander van een quiche. Daarnaast zijn de vriendelijkheid, de sfeer en de rust onderdeel van het genieten. Voor herhaling vatbaar!

What a lovely place. Popped in fit a cuppa but stayed for a light lunch. V cute place. Small but welcoming and home cooked simple food.

Although the sun was not shining the gardens looked beautiful today. The lavender was glowing and the wild seeded garden was amazing. Tables were all full but one cleared quickly so we didn't wait long - plenty of colourful plants to admire while waiting. Lavender scone with cream and jam - yum yum - and sticky ginger cake - delicious. Tea and cakes served quickly and with a smile by the pleasant young waitress. Thank you for a hot cup of tea, lovely cakes and surroundings that made me smile

Went out for tea. Loved the lavender scones, huge and delicious. The quiche was lovely as well with a gorgeous salad, definitely recommended.

I am surprised at the comments by IFlyHighAsTheSky as I am a customer there once or twice a month and have never had a problem with the food or the service. I have only twice in 5 years seen a customer feel that something was wrong and on both occasions the staff put it right immediately even when the customer had changed their mind about what they had ordered. Maybe IFlyHighAsTheSky's expectations was too high for a tea shop, and I wonder if she/he actually brought this to the attention to the staff. I and my friends will still support them as we love their tea, coffee cake and lunches - absolutely scrummy!

The place is as lovely and charming as the reviews say however I was very disappointed when I ordered a cafe latte only to discover it was a latte mix of instant coffee and some weird caramel type mixture. There was nothing on the menu to indicate this. I could easily have had an expresso had I been told but the tearooms seemed to have no concerns that I had been given something and paid for something very different from my expectations. In these days of transparency I find this completely unacceptable and shocking. I was offered no apology, refund or replacement coffee.

been here a few years back when I worked as an au pair in England. I remember it being a lovely, warm & sunny day and the tea and cake was fantastic. I've just moved back to England and am sure I'll go back to this place!

I visited this tea room one Saturday afternoon. I phoned on the day and booked a table last minute, glad I did,as it was quite busy. A very popular tearoom with very efficient service and staff. The food was delicious, especially the lavender scone! The gift shop has lots of nice different things to buy and it was lovely to walk round the gardens looking at the various flowers and plants. Would definitely recommend to others and will be returning. Enjoy!

Great food, friendly and helpful staff and a very pretty environment. Lavender is added to some of the cakes and makes a delicious change ..

We were lucky with the weather when we visited on Sunday before May bank holiday Monday. Expected it to be busy so booked a table for three indoor but when we arrived the weather had picked up and we found a table outside and cancelled the one inside.Signage off the A36 is not very obvious and our friend had trouble finding the turning into Giles Street.It is a small lavender farm with a small garden centre with very good quality plants so slightly more expensive I guess.The little cafe is lovely with approx 10 small tables indoor and plenty of tables outside in the small but stunning little garden. There is also a a wooden gazebo with approx 6 tables which offers shelter from rain (but not heated I suspect) There are wild birds galore. We were feeding a robin with scone crumbs only to see her feed her young on the ground right next to us!! :-)The menu is on the small side but everything we had was delicious: cream tea, savoury scone with salad, walnut and date cake and a filled seeded bun. It is not cheap but everything home made and fresh.Only thing I missed would have been to be able to walk around the farm a bit more.Maybe we could have gone for walk in the area of Landford but were not familiar with it.

WE love this place , food excellent and lovely surroundings BUT last Wednesday and recently at weekends and other days most of the cafes small number of indoor tables have been reserved for a large number of people leaving only 2 tables to sit at!We took one table and another 2 ladies struggled to get up to the only seats left which were on high stools. WHY????? the appeal is that it is a cafe therefore no booking needed, Ok so its popular but this ruins the experience as looking for a table when they are all reserved is not part of the fun!It is a cafe not a restaurant and unless the owners want LESS people to visit please reserve only one large table if absolutely needed as otherwise a visit is ruined !

I recently visited here with my Aunt, she had been many times before and really likes it. First impressions I thought it a beautiful. It has plants and flowers for sale although a bit pricey £7 for an Allium!? The tea room was sweet and beautifully decorated with lavender. We ordered cream tea for 2 which came to £11/£12 which I thought was a lot!But the scones were delicious and fresh, we sat out side as it was a gorgeous day and it was wonderful watching all the little birds. I would recommend visiting here but I suggest with out young children as it is aimed at the more mature age. It's very relaxing. TIP: there is more parking around the side

The best cream tea ever! Generous helping of scone with " clotted cream" and jam. Keep going back time after time. Good cheese scones too.Service very quick and efficient and staff very friendly.Can get very busy but they seem to cope very well!Excellent display of different plants/ shrubs for sale

I think my title is a good summation. Lovely hot drinks and great selection of rather nice home made cakes (including some with Lavender in them). Very pleasant, well-scrubbed ambiance and staff too.If you also like garden centres (I'm not that bothered LOL) then it's a top destination for a Sunday afternoon drive. It's on the way from Southampton to Salisbury so you could combine it with a trip to Old Sarum or the Cathedral.My review is from the point of view of a cyclist so I should say that I'm told they attempted to charge £1 for topping up someone's water bottle from the tap - but I only heard that secondhand, so it could just be an urban myth. Best top up your water bottle before you arrive though LOL.

Nice food , unfortunately they messed our order up so we ate separately I also think that with a cream tea that the tea and scones should arrive at the same time not 10 minutes apart To be fair when I complained they provided me with more teaI would possibly visit again although I feel they need more organisation and probably an extra member of staff

great place for tea coffee lunch on the the day we went very hot so we sat under the sunlounger and had lunch them looks round lavender farm and flowers not for children

Yummy homemade cakes & tea, good service, nice atmosphere. A lovely winter morning spent cosied up chatting with friends :-)

We had a lovely meal here. The menu is really good for such a small establishment. Lots of lavender food and drink. Excellent service. Really friendly staff and very helpful.

Love going here with friends. The inside space is cramped so although you could take a buggy in...it's tight? Outside space in gardens is lovely. Food is home made and yummy. Most have a lavender touch/flavour. If you don't like wasps in the summer...eat savoury!

I first found out about this place a few years back, and began taking friends and family here. In the summer, its like sitting out in heaven, the gardens are fabulous. It can get a little busy during these summer times so you just have to be a little patient, but the staff are wonderful and the food fantastic. I have to say, as a keen baker myself, this placedo some of the best cakes I have ever tasted. So often I get to places and think, I could have done that better myself, well, not here. There lemon curd cake, sticky ginger cake, apricot cake among many others stand out for me, and their scones are delicious, particularly the lavender ones. Food is also very good, my favourite is always the winter menu and the homemade soups they do, why can I never get mine to taste the same at home!! The prices are very reasonable for lunch, not at all expensive for fantastic quality food. I now come here regularly with my mum, friends and with my volunteer work. I can honestly say it's my favourite little tea room. They've kept it simple and they do it well.

Had afternoon tea at Lavender Farm Lovely idyllic place . Before we are we wondered through the lavender garden. Recommend booking on Saturdays it got very busy

We visited this tea room on Sunday - lovely gardens (bit out of shape now but it's end of season) There is a small car park and as it wasn't that busy when we visited it was easy to park. I placed my order in the wooden lodge, no mention from the assistant that you needed to take your own cutlery but we found out later that you should. There is no cake counter which is a real shame just a list of what is available and personally I like to see what's on offer. Our drinks were delivered fairly quickly then my lavender shortbread followed - no mention of the scone that I had ordered as part of my husbands cream tea. We waited and nothing appeared - after 20 minutes we asked a chap clearing tables and he said he would check - a few minutes later it arrived but by this time we had finished our drinks and the scone was rather late. No knife to cut the scone, no napkin so hubby then had to go and get that. It wasn't that busy so I was disappointed with the experience - it's certainly not somewhere I would rush back to.

If you are a fan of lavender you will love this place. The menu has a lavender theme but there are non lavender foods on the menu. Always very accommodating and nothing ever too much trouble. Gets very busy so would recommend booking a table. Nice seating area outside if weather good. Nice garden centre area to look round before or after.

Beautiful and peaceful gardens with interesting plants for sale and a lovely tea room, offering excellent quality food. Just off the M27, but within minutes of being in this tranquillity, many modern stresses are forgotten! We will return - possibly out of the wasp season :-)

This is a place my husband and I go to as often as we are in the area.It is particularly nice when the lavender is at its best and the sun is out & you can sit outside.The scones are lovely, some of the best I've tried.This is not a place for children really as others have said, adults that love plants and lovely cake will find it perfect!

Lovely Gardens to be enjoyed, not a place for children as it is tightly planted which is good as it can be appreciated for what it is, wild flowers and rows of lavender. The gardens are lovely to sit in to absorb the surroundings, which is also used by the tea room, tables in the sun or gazebos for the shade well thought out, there are tables in the tea room, which was also nice and clean and there is a small shops selling a few bits of jewellery and lavender products. The Lavender Cream Tea and the Lavender Shortbread Biscuits were delicious. Not a huge place but you can buy plants and just enjoy the surroundings.
