3/5 dee g. 2 years ago on Google
I've
been
waiting
for
2
years
to
visit
the
Abbey.
I
bought
tickets
online
because
I'd
heard
it
was
the
only
way
to
wander
about
the
lavender
fields
surrounding
the
Abbey.
However
the
tickets
are
only
for
the
tour
of
the
inside
and
other
than
the
central
garden
all
was
meh!
The
cathedral
was
completely
torn
apart,
other
rooms.were
recently
refurbished
and
completely
empty.
We
did
the
unguided
tour
since
the
only
guided
tour
is
in
French
language;
and
we
felt
we
got
ripped.
You
can
walk
into
the
grounds
and
into
the
gift
shop
inside
for
free;
but
you
can't
"wander"
about
the
fields.
The
outside
(
see
photo)
is
being
rebuilt
and
is
covered
in
scaffolding
which
does
not
look
good
from
close
up.
We
arrived
at
9am
and
other
than
one
tour
bus
there
was
no
one
there
and
the
parking
lot
empty.
By
10:30
the
lot
was
full
and
people
were
swarming.
My
recommendation-
visit
the
outside
of
the
Abbey
,and
take
pictures
from
where
the
road
turns
into
the
Abbey
or
a
little
closer,
but
don't
go
in
and
definitely
don't
buy
tickets
for
a
tour.
Better
yet,
give
it
one
year
and
return
in
2022.
It
should
be
gorgeous
by
then.
