We went to visit and pick sunflowers. It was a wonderful day which wound suit all ages. I took my two grown up daughters and 3yr old granddaughter.
It was so well organised and the young man on the kiosk was so welcoming, in fact every member of staff we met were all equally pleasant and looked happy to be at work.
It’s a very quaint, tranquil very English setting which we throughly enjoyed.
We made some wonderful memories so thank you Castle Farm from us all.

The tour of the lavender fields was excellent and that is what we went for. The guide was very knowledgeable and the tour was suitable for someone using crutches for assistance.

A group of us took part in the Guided Lavender tour and I would highly recommend. It was just the correct length of time with a lot of knowledge shared with us by our guide Colin. Extremely interesting and the walk finished with a free lavender shortbread biscuit and a bottle of apple juice. It really did make a lovely experience for us all.
The views are amazing.

We were charged £6.25 for entry to the lavender field, even though it was advertised in castle farms leaflet and online as priced £5.50. I queried this at the shop and was told there’s a 75p booking fee. I said that we didn’t book but just bought tickets on the gate and was told that they still take a booking fee. I think this is misrepresentation of their pricing. If it is always charged at £6.25 each, then it should be advertised as such. It was poor value for money as there was only the one field you could go in and the lavender was past its best. Also the toilets were dirty and had obviously not been cleaned for a long time, possibly all day. The shop had a good variety of goods but it was pricey. The staff were a bit offhand and dismissive. I would not go there again.

Hello Elaine, Thank you for taking the time to review. We will take your feedback on board regarding making the event prices more clear in our leaflet for next year – thank you for this suggestion. We initiate regular toilet checks throughout the day, so I apologise that you found them unsatisfactory, we will ensure we implement more checks on busy weekends. We are at the end of the season now, so the Lavender is ready to harvest and we do keep followers updated on the flowering stages of the lavender on our social media and newsletters. Thank you again, Lorna

Have visited the lavender farm many times over the last few years. This was our first visit since 2019. so disappointed that it seems so much more commercialised than it was. Just to sit in the field to have a picnic was £13 each. To walk the lavender fields it was £5.50. I can understand by charging it makes people respect the beautiful scenery. Obviously, there is the upkeep of the area but it becomes a very expensive day out.

Hello Ann, thank you very much for your feedback, we will take it on board. You are right that it takes a huge amount of dedication, effort and time to keep the fields open, looking beautiful and weed free, and the visitor experience is now a little different to how it was in 2019 but thank you for visiting 😊

We spent the morning here, we paid for the tour in the lavender fields which was really interesting & factual especially as I have a lot growing in my garden!
A nice touch was the free lavender biscuits & Kentish juice. Colin was fab & made a very nice way to spend a couple of hours.
Loved the farm shop & ended up buying lots of Kent goodies.
Definitely worth the drive from Canterbury.
Only thing is google maps tries to take you down the exit road so maybe the signs need to be a little before that turning as it’s a very narrow road.

A favorite stop when visiting the UK. We timed our visit right, just before the lavender harvest. The farm had several events on offer from a walk in the fields to a guided tour and opportunity to have a picnic in the lavender fields. In addition to the farm shop, there were extra stalls and food trucks. Organization was professional, plenty of staff directing visitors to an overflow car park, a field opposite from the farm. We enjoyed our visit and happy to buy some fresh lavender to take home.

An amazing experience with breathing views even when it was raining.
This year has been the best I have seen this with a continuous carpet of stunning blue. Two gift shops with wonderful choice of gifts from lavender short cakes to oils.
You get a welcoming committee from the herd of cows🫠
Well worth a visit this month being the best.

Just love this place . This was our 5th visit . Fantastic staff, and just …Lavender ! Price sin the shop are a bit pricey, but the very good quality . Also I don’t know if it was a hitch, but it supposed to be £0.75 per booking fee, not for each person , so we ended paying up £2.25 for the booking fee . Anyhow, beautiful place, and we will most definitely will come back .

What a lovely review - thank you! Especially on a 5th visit, this is great to hear!
The booking fee is per ticket, so I think on this occasion the correct amount was charged, but if you have any concerns please email the team and we would be happy to look into it for you.
Look forward to welcoming you back on your next visit 😊💜

Hello, our Farm Shop is currently closed and we are operating a Drive Thru Farm Shop on Castle Farm. Usually, yes well behaved dogs on leads are welcome on the farm, but not in the farm shop itself. We have dog water bowls outside. Please check back for dog access for individual events once announced for the Lavender Season this year!

Hello I'm bringing American relatives when do you think the Lavender will be at its peak considering our very wet June?
When we came to see it last year a lot of it had been cut down 😭I can't wait to impress them with its beauty!
Warm regards
Deborah

Hi Deborah, sorry I did not see this message until now!
The Lavender is already colouring up and we are busy harvesting our bright purple variety 'Folgate' for cut bunches. The rest of the Mailette and Lavandin crop are still to reach their peak flowering, so I would suggest next week would be good time to visit. We are about a week or so behind last years flowering due to this wet, un-summery weather!
If you keep an eye on our Instagram we are regularly posting pics of the view, so you can often see how the colour and flowers are developing.
Hope that helps - and if you want further clarification, give the office a call on 01959 523219. Hope you and your visitors have a lovely visit.
Thanks
Lorna

Good evening. What is the best time of year to visit the lavender fields? Do you have organised excursions?

Hello Claire, sorry for the delay on the reply!
The lavender is in flower from the end of June through to the end of July - although this is of course weather dependent! A sunnier June will result in earlier flowering.
If you sign up to our Newsletter we will let you know key event dates - you can go on guided tours of the fields and our oil distillery, plus on specific days you can enjoy a massage in the lavender fields.
Also follow our Facebook, Twitter or Instagram for real-time updates. Hope this helps! Thanks, Lorna
