The herbs, peacefulness, great layout

I took a trip to Cyherbia today with some friends. I had heard about it, but this was the first chance that I had to actually visit it.

Even though it is in the middle of nowhere, it is easy to find and as soon as you park and walk through the gates you can smell the beautiful herbs.

At the moment, there is an abundance of lavender and it smells beautiful.

Cyherbia is run by Miranda Tringis and her team there is very helpful and will tell you anything you need to know. There are "find it" games for young kids and detailed paths for everyone else that show your way through the herbs - ALL OF WHICH are labelled I have to add.

As well as the "herb walk" there is also a woodland walk, again with everything labelled and a maze that is excellent and great fun for kids (of any age).

They serve beverages of course - wonderful iced tea tat they make themselves included and have a selection of foods as well.

There is a shop too where you can buy any of the herbs and other products made from the herbs, such as lavender oil.

I can recommend Cyherbia as a great place to visit.
