Forget Provence for now, because we lucky Australians seem to have our own beautiful lavender estate down in Tasmania. Just 45 minutes from Launceston in a small town called Naboula, it was one of the most beautiful places I have ever visited, the Bridestowe Lavender Estate. From a small family dream many decades ago to one of Tasmania’s most popular eco-tourism destinations, Bridestowe Lavender Estate will definitely add to your itinerary. There’s nothing like wandering through endless fields of lavender, its scent fills the air with the scent of late spring in southern France…
