Accessibility
Pros:
"All on one level is so easy access."
"Tables well spaced so wheelchair can easily fit in between."
Cons:
"Large parts of this garden centre are definitely not wheelchair friendly."
"Trying to push even an empty trolley over your uneven surfaces and thresholds was hard work."
"Nice selection but terrible layout. Uneven surfaces not suitable for disabled, tricky for the elderly."
"Lack of disabled access makes it surprising that it can still operate as a business in modern day."
"Current signage very old, almost illegible and using a hoist on sloping ground made loading and unloading a wheelchair very difficult."
"The garden centre is in many different buildings on many different levels joined together so if you have a hard time walking it can be a struggle."
"Garden centre is on a bit of a hill, so manoeuvre wheelchair up and down can be awkward."
Plant Selection & Care
Pros:
"Amazing choice of plants, shrubs etc as well as a huge range of plant pots of varying sizes to choose from."
"Great choice of plants at a reasonable price."
"First the good points… have purchased pond plants and fish a few times and the staff have always been super helpful and knowledgeable and they have a great selection."
"The plants are all in excellent condition. We had a choice & finally bought a plant which is now planted alongside other plants in our front garden hedge & thriving."
Cons:
"I was in search of a gooseberry Bush, there were 7 or 8 available, but ALL were infested with Sawfly larvae."
"The outside plants all looked a bit unloved and there were lots of broken pots outside."
"Plants not looked after frequently dry and wilted."
"Everywhere we went we passed dishevelled plants, lack of prices, lack of plant names."
"Dead plants on the benches and unwatered bedding wilting close to the point of no return."
"Such a wide range of varied stock that the plants available are not well presented and seem neglected."
"On entering yesterday, we were faced with a display of under watered and dying plants."
Restaurant & Cafe
Pros:
"The restaurant is excellent and the Sunday lunch is delicious."
"A great place to visit with a nice restaurant."
"Superb café in this dog friendly garden centre that has a lot more to offer than just garden items."
"Restaurant keenly priced and dogs welcome."
"However the serving and counter staff were excellent."
"Excellent lunch. Very tasty, chicken, bacon in a delicious Brie sauce."
