One of the biggest and most beautiful I've seen in Quebec. A really nice place with open space for social distancing and best of all, free entrance. Bring your cameras for really awesome Instagram pictures. Just come on a sunny day with white fluffy clouds and don't your picnic food.

A little bit of hype. We expected fields as far as the eye could see. Nope.

Beautiful. Well maintained but too commercial. There were more people than lavender!

Despite everything we had a great time.

A magnificent place, the guided tour is very interesting, the employers are very warm, I strongly recommend to go and visit, it is not to be missed. In addition there are several activities and games for the whole family on the grounds.

The experience and know-how of this company are incredible! We were treated to a tour as well as an explanation of the manufacturing processes for lavender essential oil.
The lavender fields are splendid and are a perfect setting for photography buffs. The entire site is highlighted by several elements such as sculptures of bushes, wooden chairs and large capitals where it is possible to buy lemonade.

Had my mother-in-law with us & she doesn't understand french, which was not a problem here. The tour video has english subtitles, the guide was bilingual & all the information on signs was in both languages. The grounds are beautiful and very clean. All the staff was courteous.

I was there with a group of 15 people, for a family meeting. I booked us the Bleu Royal package which includes a lunch box(vegeterian option possible), the site entrance (lavender field guided tour) and a little gift for 25$ per person.
The booking: it was fine, they gave us the group discount event though we were 5 persons short. It was just confusing that I had to confirm a bunch of times with the lady; she wanted to make sure we would be there. Also, we didnt have to pay for young kids (<2yrs), but no food was prepared for them when we got there. Good thing that the manager easily found a solution for us.
The lunch box : Food was very good. I was a bit disapointed that we couldnt eat in the field since the food was served on a tray and not like in a bag/basket.
The lavender field tour: I was disapointed that we didnt have a guide only for our group. We were a lot of people for only one guide (>30) and he had to do it both in french and english, so it was a bit long for nothing. They explained us from A to Z how to grow lavender and get the oil. We didnt really go into the fields, so plan time for that.
This place is very touristy and lack a bit of organisation in my opinion. I would go back just for a stroll in the field, eat/relax, do yoga, but would never do any of the touristic activity again.

The Lavender field as it nice and good place to visit. Must visit in july to august and very crowded. Buy lavender stuff for 35$ and you get 2 tickets free was good deal we missed out Otherwise the stuff are really expensive. The guided tour will give you info which is not extravagant but still informative. The vanilla icecream with lavender flavour it worth a try... but its just some sugar with violet colour and lavender flowers..

I spent a beautiful morning here with family last year. We had brunch outdoors and it was a truly wonderful experience. The food is good, the scenery is jaw-dropping (fields and fields and fields of lavender) and the site itself is very well-maintained. Didn't have a chance to get one of their massages with the view of the fields, but that's just an excuse to go back again.
Their little lavender boutique smells heavenly and is a great place to stop for some lavender-scented gifts or everyday items.
I look forward to going back again soon.

Great time spent at Bleu lavande in Estrie!

Great time spent at Bleu lavande in Estrie!

We went there with our picnic (I advise you to make a stop at the Red Beret, an excellent dish cooked on site) and we settled in the lavender fields with our little dog!

The staff are very welcoming and the sanitary rules are very well applied!

Thank you

I went there on July 6, 2020, following two heat waves which accelerated flowering everywhere. Normally, we recommend going there around July 20.
From Montreal, the walk lasts about 2 hours, via Highway 10 and then, via a winding and hilly road. A very pleasant course if you have the intelligence to take your time.
The Bleu Lavande site is located more exactly in Fitch Bay, some 10 km from Stanstead. Visiting the lavender fields is normally paid ($ 10) but, in this COVID-19 summer, it is free. Personally, I took advantage of this "saving" to spend more in the store. By the way, in the future it would be a good idea to charge for the field visit BUT being able to apply the cost of this visit as a credit to the store if a visitor purchases for at least $ 50. Thus, this company will avoid profiteers who go there only for the fields, without buying anything, while allowing lovers of lavender products to stock up at a lower cost. Personally, I bought it for $ 105 at the store.
The lavender fields are sloping and well landscaped. It is a small corner of Provence.
There are also some buildings used for processing lavender and displaying very informative explanatory brochures. By paying attention, we also discover a pretty little landscaped garden.
The store is spacious and has many products. The choice of soaps, combined with other scents (patchouli, eucalyptus, etc.), is very interesting. The staff are pleasant and helpful.
On weekends, there are food cars for the hungry.

All in all, a very pleasant day for those who know how to choose the date of their visit (no need to go there after the harvest ....) and sunny weather.

Wow, pay $ 10 for next to nothing. Is this the solution found to get this company out of bankruptcy?!? Tractor ride in the lavender fields ..... no stopping.no explanation.nothing a little tour that's it! The little interpretive center was fine. If I understand your philosophy correctly: I pay to go and buy your products. Suggestion: we pay $ 10 and if we buy a product we get a discount of $ 5 to $ 10 !!!

What about Bleur Lavande that has never been said? Paradise place where it is good to wander. The guided tour is definitely worth the cost to learn more about lavender. A beautiful moment assuredly

Loved the experience. However, to see the most beautiful colors, you should go in mid-july and not wait too much : it is a farm and they have to cut the colors to make the amazing products that they sell.

Small tip : bring your lunch in a cooler, there are a lot of places to eat a bite and enjoy the peaceful and beautiful fields of lavander.

Happy to have visited the place before their move to Magog. We were a little late in the season to take wonderful photos of the lilac-colored fields. The flowers had started to dry (early August). They make good products. It smells of happiness
