You could spend a day here; yes, they serve lunch! For sure you'll struggle to leave without spending £100+ BUT all their plants are healthy and I have had 100% success from growing their plants. Staff are knowledgeable and friendly; just take care arriving and leaving, the road outside is quite dangerous!

I 💯 love this garden centre. Staff are very helpful and polite..... so close to my home, you can pretty much anything you're looking for at a foldable price. Love the cafe too. For a good catch-up with friends.

First time visiting today. Was greeted by a giant t rex at the front door :) lots of Xmas decorations in their dedicated Xmas section complete with a large Xmas train to sit in. Has a nice aquatics section, pet section, garden items and plants and different foods and useful items to look at. We had some lunch in the warering can cafe, sandwiches and sausage rolls were really tasty. And really large pots of tea got like 3 cups out of each pot. They offered vegan milk which was great. Prices were pretty reasonable left happy 😊

A wide selection of items for sale and a lovely site to visit. Thought there would be a wider selection of local foods and drinks from around Great Yarnmouth and Norwich. Shame. As this us what we came in for.

A really nice garden centre which also sells a large variety of food bits and trinkets. They have a fantastic Santa Grotto where the staff are very festive creating a great atmosphere. The one negative was that inside the Grotto queue there was no carols of Christmas type music playing.

On coming here for the first time I felt quite excited as I love garden centres and I was looking forward to exploring all it had to offer! The gravel car park was spacious enough to support the amount of customers and I noticed some outdoor shelving stuffed with small plants, luring customers towards the main entrance. There were plenty of trolleys available too. On entering the store I was at first intrigued by the aisles containing garden-related items, but became a little disappointed when I realised much of the inside area was dedicated to homewares and food. (Personally, I prefer a garden centre to be all about plants and gardens ☺️) However, my enthusiasm grew when I exited the store at the back and found myself in a great big hangar full of everything you could need or want for a garden that wasn't actually a plant!! 🤪 There were garden ornaments, furniture, toys, and more needy items such as plant feed, garden tools and compost, perlite...even bricks of coco coir! Then there was outside...and the plants!! There were so many to see, I didn't know where to start! I wandered everywhere...two or three times!! There were plants of all sizes and types! It was plant heaven! 😁 There was a large area selling plant pots, trellises, grit, decorative paving slabs etc, and another large undercover area filled with bedding plants.. both flower and vegetable plants. There was also a cafe, but we did not use it this time. However, there was the lovely aroma of food as you walked around the plant aisles just outside. On the whole, despite a couple of down sides...(ie, the boring homeware and food sections, and the lack of concrete paths serving the car park itself, which had there been a path to my car, would have made it a lot easier to transfer my trolley-full of goodies 😜).... I did enjoy visiting Southview Cherry Tree garden centre. ☺️ I really enjoyed looking around the wonderful variety of plant and garden products 😀. The place is well organised, the staff are helpful, and everything reasonably priced!! I'll be returning whenever I can! 😉

Went here today to see Father Christmas. It was fantastic! The display was lovely, the two staff (nutcrackers) were friendly and professional and Father Christmas himself was everything you'd hope for. Top experience, Cherry Lane. Highly recommended and great price. Update....visited again with our two dogs....very well priced dog toys! Two very happy doggos!

Though I couldn't get a couple of the things I wanted, due to the time of year most likely, I still had a most enjoyable time, as always. I got some great deals, had a nice lunch & coffee at the café and came away happy. Prices are good, staff are helpful, food is great and there is plenty of parking space. I've been many times and will return many more times.

Went to see if any pond plants (early March) were available. Had a great selection this early on which surprised me. Spring border bedding plants in abundance too. Parking great and covid protocols were adopted by all I saw. Nice to look around and look forward to buying more in the spring / summer.
