If I'm going to go to a garden centre / nursery in the area this is the one I usually go to first - mainly because I live a stones throw away from it!
It has a wide variety of garden products; tools, sheds, fencing, in addition to plants, trees, seeds, compost, mulch, grow bags, stones and fertiliser. In recent years it has diversified and introduced a lot of garden ornaments - especially water features and fountains and also benches and swings. The most recent innovation is the introduction of fish for indoor tanks and outdoor ponds. At Christmas they also have a very good range of Christmas decorations, lights etc. They have recently redeveloped the cafe and this is pretty good for a garden centre. It's very spacious, has a wide range of food for sale, the staff are friendly and the prices aren't too bad - considering they have a captive audience. The prices for the rest of the garden centre are not that impressive compared to others. The range of non decorative plants is also pretty poor. Overall, for me it's convenient and the cafe is pretty good but the main produce is not fantastic. read more
