Wonderful place. We went yesterday and had lunch in the restaurant which now has a separate vegan menu � It was superb. Lovely staff and a garden centre to rival Perrywoods!!!!

This place is amazing my grandchildren absolutely loved the grotto and train and Santa was really lovely one of the best I have been to will definitely recommend and come back thank you.
Fantastic place, the miniature railway. Decorated for Halloween and very good value for money.
Lunch in the restaurant. Food well presented. The children's activity lunch is good value. There's a bit of a wait for cooked food. Try the honey glazed ham and Cheese Sandwich, the filling is generous. As for all the cakes you'd be spoilt for choice
Fantastic experience with Poplar Nurseries! They flawlessly catered our event for 34 people, providing delicious and well-prepared food that offered incredible value for money. The entire process was highly efficient, and the presentation was superb. We're definitely ordering from them again!
Great garden centre, plenty of parking, lots of choice, easy access and fab restaurant, huge portions though, very good service & great meal, had a miniature railway if you have children (not sure if it was running) overall a lovely visit.
The Nursery that has everything from garden plants and equipment to a gourmet food and beverage shop. But yesterday was special; a bbq course out in the sunshine. We had free beer and soft b drinks and top quality Pecanha beef and organic pork chops. Wonderful! Chef Tarrant and his team are the real deal!
Lovely friendly centre. Has a lovely and well stocked farm shop. I was impressed by the selection of gluten free items stocked here. Well worth a visit
Lovely garden centre that offers everything you could possibly need. Nice newly added food shop which offers tasty cakes and most cooking treats you could ask for, although it doesn’t offer a butchers counter. The Garden Centre itself has a huge range and a specialist Weber section currently offering free five minute courses to get you going if you’re new to outdoor cooking. Mini railway for the children and all the plants and gardening tools you could as for. Well worth a visit. Plenty of parking available too.
One of the better garden nursery around : excellent restaurant : large garden accessory area with everything required: large outdoor space with plants bushes pots etc
This year's Christmas display large and colourful : Another fantastic Christmas display this year ( 2023 )
And then the food hall some good things to be had
My husband and I took my daughter to Breakfast with Santa event on Christmas Eve. My daughter loved the whole experience from the beginning to the end and so did we. I thought the little Christmas tree to take home was a lovely idea. The breakfast on its own was generous portion that my husband and I couldn't finish. My daughter loved the gift from Santa and enjoyed talking to friendly elves. We will come back again next year.
An ever expanding enterprise with gift shop, food hall, gift shop and even a kitchen design centre alongside the garden centre. Lovely range of gifts and garden related items. There is a plethora of commanding signs which feels a little bit like you’re in school but the café offers a simple range of breakfast and lunch items with some daily specials but all plated up beautifully with salads and sides.
Very well stocked garden supplies shop. They have plants, seeds, tools, decorations, etc. Good amount of parking. The cafe on site also offers a good range of snacks and meals. There is a toy train to keep the young kids engaged.
