Happy Holidays!

The Ojai Valley Lavender Festival is right around the corner.  On June 25th from 10 am – 5 pm, Libbey Bowl and downtown Ojai will be filled with people from all over the world enjoying the sights, aromas, colors and  textures of Lavender.  Ojai has seen this festival grow for eight years to a festival that boasts over 5,000 visitors a year and growing!

This is a festival for every age!  Bring your family & friends to enjoy Art, Craft, Food and Music!

As always, The Lavender Inn has a booth at the festival and will be doing a raffle for a One Night Weekday Stay at the Lavender Inn, which includes a Room  with balcony for two, Wine & Cheese in the evening & a Full Breakfast in the morning.

Come to our booth and sign up for the raffle or visit the Inn (just one block away) and go for a tour of the Inn.  You’ll be happy you did.  The gardens are beautiful!

The mission of the Ojai Valley Lavender Festival is to demonstrate and promote the many uses of lavender, to broaden public awareness and to educate potential growers/farmers about the benefits of plants that celebrate the Ojai Valley’s Mediterranean climate, and to promote Ojai as a unique and welcoming destination.  Hope to see you there!

 

Every once in a while we receive calls from parents or families organizing a reunion or grandparents having a get away with their grandchildren, asking whether we are kid or baby friendly.  We’re happy to say that not only are we child friendly, but we embrace it!  We love having families with children stay with us.

The Lavender Inn is like being at home.  Our large fenced garden is safe and perfect place for kids. We have a pond with frogs, a beautiful lawn, a hammock, and outdoor games.  If that’s not enough, we are one block from Libbey Park with a huge children’s area, one block from the new skate park, five blocks from the kids club and Rec center, four blocks from the bike rentals and bike path, and walking distance to hiking overlooking the Valley.  What more could you ask for?

To top it all off, we’re always ready for a special breakfast and evening snack for the little ones.  Just let us know what you need.

It always surprises us to hear that we are the only ones to allow newborns at the Inn.  Bring your Pack & Play and we’ll make room for you and your precious one!

When you book with us, let us know your children’s ages are so that we can best suggest the appropriate room or rooms.

Hope to see you and your family soon!
