It probably wouldn't fill a whole day out, unless you do find lavender particularly fascinating, but it is a good place to while-away a relaxing hour or two, or to escape for a delicious morning coffee, or afternoon tea.
Wolds Way Lavender is a working lavender farm. The best time to visit is Summer, when most of the lavender plants are in bloom.
Entrance is Free, which makes it super-easy just to call in.
It is a pleasant, peaceful spot - wander amongst a fragrant garden, with what seems to be every conceivable species of lavender...
Then take the nature trail walk around the lavender fields. Admire wild flowers, butterflies, dragonflies and birds along the trail.
