la maison lavande

Went there in July, nothing special. We went the previous year to Bleu Lavande in Magog, so we had something to compare. Most of the lavender was in mud towards the other half of the land, and most were dead or dying in those sections. There was a few chickens in the beginning, which is a bit weird. Bathrooms had no lights, and couldn't find a switch to turn them on. Some of the souvenirs came from China which is a bit sad as they're overpriced and plenty of opportunities to make them local. Bring your own drinks and food as a water bottle cost $2 and in Wal-Mart some water pack of 24 for $4. People were nice, but bleu Lavande is worth the trip, price and has a spectacular view.

La maison de la lavande is a lavender farm, something we did not know existed in this region. Unfortunately, we were a bit too late in the season to actually see the lavender in the fields. We could still have taken a tour with a guide but opted not to. We did visit their two boutiques which are full of lavender products. Timing is of the it-most importance. The fee is only for a tour. The staff is extremely courteous.

We stopped here and all I can say is wow! I love lavender and visit lavender farms whenever we travel. This farm is extraordinary and has a large selection of lavender items to purchase. We will definitely stop again in November so I can stock up on some items I need.

Just perfect. Courteous employees, boutique with a variety of quality products related to lavender. Beautiful historic buildings with wonderful stories are being attached. An eco-friendly approach and great phylosophy of the owners. And a delight to the sight and smell.Simplement parfait. Employés courtois, boutique avec une variété de produits de qualité liés à la lavande. Beaux bâtiments historiques avec de magnifiques histoires y étant rattaché. Une approche écoresponsable et une superbe phylosophie de la part des propriétaires. Et un délice pour la vue et l'odorat.

After seeing a roadside sign for this place we decided to check it out. The smell on the grounds is beautiful. Greeted by the friendly staff we walked in to the country chic boutique. Products are all high quality. I purchased the lip balm as well as the antiseptic hand gel and am sad my bottles are ending. Will have to go back! Do not miss the kitchen and food section. Jams are to die for with the faintest hint of lavender as the after taste. I would have bought it all! The day we visited there was a wedding taking place in the lavender fields. It was so beautiful I will definetly consider it if I get married. Stunning view!

we visited La maison Lavande this week end as part of our half a day activity. We were very pleased by the friendly staff that great you upon your arrival. The fields are very beautiful. The boutiques smelled very good and we love the lavender jam tasting! If you ever been to the Bleu Lavande in the Eastern Township you will realise that it is very very similar but nonetheless a fun place to go with the family.

I have been to France thrice but mostly in Paris and have no idea on how to get to Provence where most of the Lavender fields are located. One of things however in my "MUST DO" and "MUST SEE" list is to visit a Lavender farm anywhere.My chance came when hubby had a business trip to Montreal. I searched for nearby lavender farms and I selected La Maison Lavande in Saint Eustache rather than go to a much larger lavender farm in Canada near the US-Canada border because the review of this farm was much better than the other farm.When we entered Quebec we asked directions from the tourism office on how to get to La Maison Lavande. The young tourism volunteer in the Tourism Office has never been to this farm yet but she googled the place for us(which we could also do ourselves) and gave us two options on getting there.One is to take a 10 minute ferry to Oka Quebec which is well known for its cheese and the other is by land via Montreal.We decided to go via the ferry when we were assured by the Tourism volunteer that it is faster to go via ferry. She said that if we went by ferry it will only take 30 minutes to get there compared to the one hour and ten minutes if we go by land.We paid $10 for the 10 minute ferry ride by barge to Oka, Quebec. When we reached land we stopped at the Tourism Office again to ask for direction to the Lavender farm. Again the Tourism Guide in the office has not been to the farm and gave us a rough estimate of our travel time which is 20 minutes (that is if we did not get lost). We got lost however and it took us almost an hour to locate the farm using the map that we got from the guide.<On the way to the farm we passed by several fruit stalls, a cheese factory and a monastery. Oka is a very quiant little town that I would probably would want to explore again next visit.After almost an hour of going around and stopping thrice to ask for directions, we finally reached the farm as it was about to close. We arrived 4 minutes before the 5 pm closing time. The owner and his daughter were very gracious and allowed us to go inside the farm and take photos of the lavender fields.They were so nice to us so even if we were there only for 4 minutes we had a good time taking photos of their place. The next day we decided to buy two of their products, the linen spray and hand gel when we saw their booth in a mall in Laval.If you love lavender, a visit to this farm is highly recommended when you visit Montreal specially during July which is the peak season for lavender farms.Suggestion to the farm owner: Put up big notice board at the gas station on the corner of the street leading to the farm. It would also help if they can already be included in google map. Our GPS cannot locate the place so it is rather difficult to look for the farm.

A very enjoyable visit to this beautiful house that was transported and put together like a puzzle. Inside, your senses will take on the wonderful smells of lavender and some wonderful staff will take you on a mini tour of the store to explain what is available. I would suggest visiting when the fields of lavender are in full bloom and be able to get the full experience, otherwise you are just glancing at the fields and shopping the little boutique. Some incredible jams are there for the tasting and other nice gift ideas.

The house itself was brought over piece by piece from another part of Quebec. It was put together here while keeping the old traditions of home building from yesteryear. In July you may enjoy the breathtaking sight of fields of Lavender. This is a real feast for the eyes. It is also a good place to get some beautiful aromatic gifts, and now they also have spices and jams combining Lavender within. I buy their room freshener and cleaner....it makes the bathroom feel luxurious. The store itself is beautifully decorated. They now have a second building with food products. They are open almost until Christmas....so you still have a chance to buy your gifts.

This is an interesting place, especially when the lavender fields are in full bloom. It is amazing what can be done with lavender, including lavender chocolate!

Les gens oeuvrant à cet endroit, sont très accueillants et gentils. J'ai recu beaucoup d'informations sur les produits. Très joli endroit où les produits de tout genre fabriqué avec la lavande sont disponibles. Très Zen, agréable. Je vous le recommande.

Journée très relaxante et bel environnement...Personnel très gentil.J,ai mangé un sandwich sur place, beaucoup d'endroits pour les pic nics. Pas certaine que c'est une attraction pour les jeunes enfants, plus pour les adultes.

C'est un plaisir de se rendre à cet endroit..La route est magnifique et il y a plusieurs endroits que l'on peut visiter.Le site est très beau. Les champs de Lavande sont magnifiques. On peut s'y promener et même y pique niquer sous de magnifiques arbres.On apprend plusieurs choses, même sur les renards et leur mode d'existence.Mais, ici, on ne parle pas d'une visite de deux heures, à moins qu'on y mange.On considère que devoir payer huit dollars plus taxes par personne pour avoir accès aux champs, peut-être un peu trop excessif.Mais cela vaut la peine d'être vu.

Nous sommes allés dans ce petit coin de paradis. Les étendues de lavande sont de toute beauté. Nous avions vu cela en Europe mais au Québec, c'est plutôt rare. Nancy et Daniel sont accueillants. Il est possible de manger sur le site. La boutique contient de nombreux produits intéressants.

J'aime tout de cet endroit, le site enchanteur, le calme, l'accueil, la paix, l'odeur, le toucher, le goût. Et que dire des produits faits à partir de leur culture; une qualité exceptionnelle.Et l'accueil très, mais très courtois, moi, j'y habite tout près et j'y suis toujours quand j'ai un petit quelque chose à offrir.Bref, je recommande cet endroit si vous êtes du genre à apprécier les beautés que la nature nous offre.
