Spring has just begun and blossom season is about to kick off! In this blogpost I have accumulated many cool spots I have visited over the years, which are all within a two hour drive of my home (Eindhoven). The weather is getting better, the days are getting longer and now is the time to go on a blossom hunt or flower adventure.

If you want to see lavender fields, you don’t have to go to France. During our summer trip to the United Kingdom we visited beautiful lavender fields in Yorkshire, England. Throughout England you will find lavender fields, they are a bit more scattered through the country than in France, but magical nonetheless. We loved our visit to Yorkshire lavender and I highly recommend to put a visit to a lavender farm on your list if you are visiting the UK in summer time.

Visiting the Beatrix Potter house & gardens were my first introduction into the Lake District. The Lake District is an incredibly lush area in the United Kingdom, that definitely should be included in your itinerary. In this blog post I explain how to visit Hill Top, which is the farmhouse that was owned by famous illustrator Beatrix Potter. An absolutely lovely visit!
