I was up in Snowshill shooting a job for the National Trust when I saw a sign for Snowshill Lavender (right before the summer fete stalls being setup – which I also recommend, even if I didn’t win a coconut). I had a drive up and stumbled across a scene more like French rolling hills than the Cotswolds. The lavender is now harvested for the year, but keep an eye on Snowshill Lavender‘s website for news of next summer’s crop. The smell is something else and reminded me of my Nan’s house – she loved lavender (I think it’s an old lady thing).
