A great cafe with excellent staff serving a lovely breakfast, An amazing selection of homemade cakes if you prefer an afternoon tea. Get the Tates app if you want offers
Very well organised with lots of stock. Disappointed that they stock parrots feather invasive pond weed. But they also stocked other native pond weed too that my newts leapt on straight away. In particular the water spearmint. Ideal sized leaves to wrap newt eggs in. I would have given 5 stars if it had not been for the invasive parrots feather.
Beautiful substantial garden centre with a vast variety of things for both home and garden.
The restaurant is equally fantastic...there is usually a queue for entry but please be patient as it's so worth it . Very nice selection of breakfast lunch light bites snacks and drinks at very reasonable prices. Very helpful and friendly staff in both the garden centre and restaurant.Also lovely outside seating area for lunch when the weather is nice. Dogs also welcome.
Highly recommend.
Huge and varied selection of plants and garden accessories,
Lawn mower exhibition was very interesting, and meet with Clive from the budding foundation, which help with providing activities for all sorts of children & their parents/carers.
Lovely centre with loads of choice in different departments; Food hall, gifts, home wear, clothes, pet isles, plenty of outdoor and indoor plants, museum.
Food is delicious.
Dog friendly everywhere but the food hall 🐕🦺.
Large car park too, which is free.
Came with my very elderly mother who cannot walk. A wheelchair and disabled trolley that fits in front of the wheelchair were easily available. The aisles were very wide, easily accomodating us without inconveniencing other customers. The staff were friendly, smiley and helpful. Also a huge range of good quality plants and gardening accessories. The cafe serves excellent food with a wide range of choices. Overall we had a very enjoyable and fun experience. Will definately be returning.
Lovey place to come and spend an afternoon, enjoyed lunch in the cafe, the rules on where dogs can and can't go is very confusing. This resulted in realising upon exit that I had been in a no dog area with a dog, staff didn't seem to notice I suspect because they find the different signs similarly confusing. Other than that friendly staff and a good time.
This place has so many different types of things on sale. Everything you'd expect from a Garden store. The BBQs are great (I bought one in sale and got a good deal). Plants are plenty. Along with local produce. And a greengrocer outside which do very fresh produce and have a shop that sells from pies to cheese and even hand made chocolates.
The cafe on site is amazing too. Very good food and coffees
Oh and lots of parking.
Best Garden center I've ever been to! Plenty of stock. Art and craft supplies, furniture, pet supplies, books, gifts. Has a Regatta and Craghoppers outdoor clothing section. Helpful staff. Staff work really hard to keep things tidy. Plants healthy. The restaurant food is amazing. Lovely selection of cakes. Would recommend the cooked breakfast. Food comes out so quick. Tables are always clean. Seating areas indoors and outdoors. When sunny weather it's nice to sit outdoors. There is also a playground for kids. Dog friendly they supply water bowls. Garden center also sells fresh baked goods and wine in the food section. There is also an art gallery and museum section. Great day out for family or visiting alone. Peaceful atmosphere. Relaxing music is played in the store.

What a lovely garden centre, full of stock, good prices on trees etc, just been to another that was dearer. Good cafe, bit of history in the museum part. Nice staff. Really big, worth a drive out to.
