Taiwan: Lavender cottage

Lavender Cottage

~Where two girls have their dreams fulfilled~

-A place where you can enjoy your private moments without much disturbance-

The owners are 2 girls who have dream of owning a restaurant. They started with the first one in Taichung County 8 years ago, the second one in Hsinchu 6 years ago and the third one newly opened in 2008 in Miaoli.

This is where I had a chance to visit.

Miaoli is a small city so operating a lavender cottage here helped improving the quality of Miaoli's overlooked tourist industry. The lavender Cottage helped attract more business investors and boosted the county economy.

The lavender cottage in Miaoli incorporates the famous Sanyi wood sculptures and Hakka style architecture. I never been to the other Lavender Cottage but visiting the one in Miaoli, I feel that they adapted their own unique theme with the local resources and become a good neighbor to the natives.

Make a wish and tide it on the tree up on the hill.

Inside the restaurant with a very cute waiter costume. He said he is an angel... LOL

The meals were good with reasonable prices.

What the logo says...

"We are happy and we want you to be happy too"

It's lucky to be in the right place, doing the right thing with the right people.

PS. For those who are planning to visit Hokkaido after May 2010, they are planning to open a new Adagoi Lodging there :) It will be a home of lavender!
