Hitchin is home to one of the UK’s most stunning lavender fields—and if you love flowers, chill summer vibes, and that Insta-worthy scenery, you can’t skip Hitchin Lavender 🌸✨ The best part? The blooms are massive during summer, especially on sunny days when the whole field glows purple.
Must-See: Hitchin Lavender
Address: Arlesey Road Cadwell Farm, Hitchin SG5 3UA, England
Open: 09:00–18:00 Sundays (year-round, but peak bloom June–August)
First tip: Pack your camera—a sunny day means amazing photos with endless purple and green grassland backgrounds. Even if it’s cloudy or rainy, the field has this surreal, moody look that’s super photogenic. For a unique view, walk to the back of the farm for natural wetlands and wildflowers mixed in with the lavender. The scent is unreal—definitely worth taking a moment to just stop and soak it up.
Bring snacks or a picnic blanket! There’s a café onsite, but it gets busy, so it’s smart to bring your own bites. And remember, the best flower shots are from about knee-height for that up-close “lavender ocean” vibe.
Getting Around: Hitchin station is well-linked via train to London (just 40 mins!). From the station, grab a local taxi or bus straight to Cadwell Farm. On-site parking is easy if you’re driving.
Visa/Money: Standard UK visa rules apply; bring your card or GBP for entry/gifts. Weather can flip fast—pack both sunnies and a rain jacket!
