  “Visited for breakfast with a friend. Beautiful relaxed atmosphere. I had the full English and switched mushrooms for extra beans which they were very accommodating with. Food was excellent quality and cooked fresh. Also tried the lavender lemonade which was very refreshing. A lovely hidden gem and will be visiting again.”

  “Best breakfast! The atmosphere was warm, welcoming, and so relaxed. We gathered here as a family before saying our final goodbye again and it became such a treasured memory. We never felt rushed, and no one came to clear the table while we were still together, which meant so much to us. Thank you for giving our beautiful family the space to share such a special breakfast and create a memory we’ll always cherish.”

  “While Mayfield Lavender Farm is famous, the Secret Garden was also a wonderful place. I participated in a yoga class there; what a special experience it was to practice yoga at the lavender fields! After the session, I strolled through the fields and shopped for lavender products. The yoga instructor was lovely, too.”

  “We purchased the Golden Hour ticket. The lavender fields themselves were beautiful, and the atmosphere was pleasant. The staff member (probably owner) we spoke to was particularly kind, welcoming, and brought a very positive energy to the experience. That said, I expected a bit more from the premium ticket. We were informed that a jazz band would be playing later in the evening, but it would have been nice if the music had started earlier for those who arrived at the beginning of the Golden Hour session. The bar was also closed when we arrived, and although water and lemonade were offered, I had expected the full bar service to be available as part of the experience. Another small disappointment was that cleaners were working on the carpeted area with wires running across the carpet where visitors were walking. It felt slightly disruptive and took away from the premium atmosphere. We’ve been visiting another lavender field for years, so we came with certain expectations that unfortunately weren’t quite met this time. Overall, it was still an enjoyable visit thanks to the lovely setting and friendly staff, but there is room to improve the Golden Hour experience to better match its premium price.”

  “I've visited the cafe with friends and have done the Halloween walk. The cafe has a great atmosphere, as you walk through the shop you get a wiff of lavendar and it instantly relaxes you. We had the large round table in the cafe and had delicious coffee's whilst our Stitch group stiched away and chatted and then we had "brunch" too. The menu has some amazing choices and the salad was just delicious. The afternoon tea looks amazing as does all the avocado dishes. I look forward to going back.”

  “First time visiting the place and from the beginning we felt the magic of the place. I came here with a friend and your girls for Malice in Lavenderland, the trial was so fun and with a great story, we were lucky to be here in a sunny, warm day and we loved the atmosphere. The place it’s a family fun day mix of mystery mischief, autumn vibes and magic. Parking available, lovely and helpful staff. Highly recommended.”

  “Had a lovely tea break on this beautiful sunny Sunday! ☀️ Found this really cute place, but turns out you need to book their afternoon tea set in advance. So today I just tried their Apple Cake with ice cream - they even had lavender honey flavored ice cream! 😋 It was absolutely lovely ❤️”

  “There’s a lot of heart behind Malice in Lavenderland, but our visit felt like it needed a little more care in the details. Things didn’t start off smoothly—we waited several minutes to have our tickets scanned, unsure where to go until I asked at the café counter. Once scanned in and handed a map, it was still unclear where to head next. Some signage or arrows would’ve helped, especially in the narrow hallway leading to the glasshouse, which was crowded with café customers coming out. In the garden, a big welcome sign greeted us, but again, there was no clear direction. Guests were left to wander, and it quickly became a bit of a free-for-all. Being the first day, there weren’t many pumpkins yet, and no staff were visible outside. It might have added some magic—and clarity—if staff were dressed as characters to guide visitors and bring the theme to life. That said, there were some lovely touches. The Cheshire Cat train was charming, the giant skeleton was fun, and the big cow added a whimsical note. The pergola with the Grim Reaper and hanging hands was striking. But safety seemed overlooked—I saw a lady trip near the Sleepy Hollow section, and the hanging web felt a little hazardous. A character stationed here could’ve helped both with immersion and safety. The Queen of Hearts and oversized playing cards were beautifully done, and the flamingos, though fallen over, were a sweet idea. Pegging them down would’ve kept the scene intact. Overall, the event had potential, but it felt like it needed more thought and a few extra hands to guide the experience. Lunch at the café was another low point. The counter staff were noticeably rude. I ordered a full English breakfast without tomato or beans, asking for an extra sausage instead. Despite removing two items, I was charged for the sausage, something I’ve never encountered before. The woman behind the counter tutted loudly and rolled her eyes, which made me feel uncomfortable for simply asking. At the end, I hoped to buy a couple of themed items as keepsakes, only to be told they were decorations and not for sale. It felt like a missed opportunity, both creatively and commercially. There’s a lot of charm in the concept, and with a little more attention to guest experience, safety, and staff training, it could truly shine. I hope future visitors find it more polished, because the bones of something special are definitely there.”

  “A really awesome place. First time I went and just walking in gave me a good vibe, with people milling around in the shop which led to a beautiful cafe that was rustic and relaxed with great food and drink and a lot of cheerfulness everywhere. We did the Lavenderland trail with a couple of other families and loved it, the kids were running around in the sun and we all had a good time. The shop is amazing and the staff really seemed to be happy and genuinely wanting you to have a nice time. This might have been my first visit here but it won't be the last...it will have to become a regular haunt! Parking is easy, food is great, atmosphere is lively and friendly. 100% recommended.”

  “A Memorable Visit to Mayfield Lavender Glasshouse: I had a lovely time visiting Mayfield Lavender Glasshouse, even in the rain — in fact, the drizzle made it even more peaceful, and I really appreciated the calm without the usual crowds. The staff across the farm were kind and welcoming, which made the experience feel special. A special thank you to Carly from The Secret Garden — she gave me very clear walking directions to Epsom Downs for the horse race, and as a local, her help was genuinely appreciated. The restaurant had a nice atmosphere, and the staff were friendly — though I did feel they could be a bit more patient with themselves. I made sure to thank them properly, of course — I know my manners, and I appreciated their service. As for the food: the soup didn’t taste fresh, more like it had been made with preserves, which I noticed as someone who cooks it myself. The salmon was okay, but the portion was quite small for £14.00. Perhaps the chef that day wasn’t at their best — I’m not sure how it is on other days. Despite that, the beauty of the farm and the kindness I experienced made it a memorable visit. I’ll hopefully return again in the future.”
