There is a Lavender gift shop offering a variety of gifts, some home-made to buy. Well arranged outside seating area available. There is no entry fee and the farm is open Sunday to Thursday 10 a.m till 4 p.m, closing on Friday and Saturday.

The layout is well planned with an area of the farm having raised beds making perfect viewing for everyone. The distillery is accessible by wheelchair and can accommodate a few at one time.
