You can find Most Instagrammable Lavender Fields just less than an hour drive from London, well depending on your location. As London itself is huge and sometimes it takes more than an hour to get from spot A to spot B in London. Anyway, to experience this beauty and divine smell, it’s really worth to drive an hour or more. There are quite a lot of lavender fields in the UK, but just very few near London. The most popular and most instagrammable is Mayfield Lavender Field. It’s 15 miles from central London, but if you live in the south then it’s a very short drive by car or journey by train.
