We are open for requests for proposals, elopements and commitment ceremonies and any other small gathering. Please contact us directly.

As with any plant or flower we are completely controlled by nature as to when our fields are in ‘full bloom’ so we can’t guarantee a particular date unfortunately. If you’re wanting to book a trip around seeing Bridestowe in bloom, we recommend coming between mid-December to mid-January.

We recommend you follow our social pages for the most up to date information and flower conditions.

For those coming from February onwards, our lavender has been harvested by this time.

We’re open everyday except for Christmas from 9am to 5pm. Winter hours may apply.

No, an entry fee only applies between December and January during our peak season, every other month is free.

There’s lots to do at any time of the year at Bridestowe. Here are some strictly off season perks to entice you;

• Entry charges only apply from December-January while flowers are blooming. So outside of these months you can wander across our fields for free!
• You can explore without restriction in the off season. We know that Bridestowe can get a bit busy during peak season, but at all other times of the year you can enjoy the beauty of our vast farm and gardens without the extra crowds.
• There’s treats to enjoy all year round! Purple treats (like our famous ice cream!) aren’t restricted to one season of the year, we offer all our lavender treats and products all year round!
• Our cafe and gift shop are open from 9am-5pm so you can enjoy a delicious pitstop and find a great pressie for a loved one (or yourself!) on your way out.

Bridestowe Lavender Estate welcomes commercial photographers onto its premises year-round, however there are separate rules depending on if it’s for personal or commercial use. Head to our page on filming, photography and drone use HERE for more information and contact details. For any out of hours requests we advise you to contact us directly.

Yes you can bring your pet with you to Bridestowe! We just ask that you keep them on a leash and pick up after them to keep our fields looking beautiful.

We welcome lots of photographers to our fields every year, but this isn’t an option we offer directly through Bridestowe.

Some photographers we recommend are;
For horse and rider shoots; Farm Life Photography
For dog/animal related shoots; Shywolf Photography, Daniel Towns Pet Photography and Fur Babies & Friends Photography.
For family/portrait or romantic shoots; Nic Betts, Luelle Images, Tassie Visuals, The Socialty, Melanie Kate and Fiona Vail.

If you enquire with a photographer they will be able to provide you with a quote and further liaise with someone in our team to book you in to have your shoot at Bridestowe.
