Maria's
Our onsite eatery is home to our famous Lavender Scones and bursting with delicious meals, woodfired pizza and gorgeous fresh cakes. Headed by reknowned local chef, Caliopi Buck and her wonderful team of chefs.
Lavender
Lavender reaches it's peak during January and continues to bloom late into Autumn. During the warmer months you can watch as the gardeners harvest the crop by hand using a half moon sickle then dried on site. You may also catch a glimpse of us distilling the lavender into oil and infused water, ready to be used in our aromatherapy products.
