Hello folks,
There's something truly special about taking a moment to unwind and soak in the beauty of spring. While a getaway to the French Provence might not be on the cards for us every weekend, there's a delightful slice of tranquillity right in Limburg. Imagine a quaint lavender field, a hidden jewel, blossoming from early June to September, just waiting for you and your loved ones to explore.
Limburg, with its captivating nature, lakes, and farms, is home to the charming lavender field of Stokrooie-Hasselt, known as Limburg Lavendel. It's a modest yet enchanting spot. Wander through a rose maze or enjoy a refreshing Lavender Gin or Lavender jenever at the on-site café. It’s a simple, peaceful place that offers a gentle escape, not yet overrun by crowds.
Stumbling upon this serene spot was a highlight for Christian and me. Not far from Leuven, Limburg Lavender felt like a true escape to the countryside. In our fast-paced lives, it's vital to find moments of calm amidst nature. I'm thrilled to share this hidden gem with you, hoping it offers you as much joy as it did for us.
