   Proper plant nursery with robust, healthy plants fairly priced. The knowledge amongst the staff is great and they never try to sell you something that just isn't going to work in your particular garden or container. I went with a very clear idea of what I wanted in a container, asked Chris if it would work and was very politely advised it wouldn't but then was given loads of ideas that would with no pressure to buy there and then. Saved me a lot of money in wasted plants and actually ended up with a much nicer container with year round interest. 10 out of 10.

   Lovely nursery, with a great selection of plants (and Xmas trees in Dec). Food is good in the cafe, and staff are fantastic

   Small, but well put together. Healthy plants and a very pleasant cafe! But very tight entrance, which can be an issue. Note if you’re navigating by the postcode, it might take you some way away into the village.

   This is a split review. I love going to this little nursery but unfortunately I always take a little elderly lady with me who is now sadly in a wheelchair. The nursery has no disabled parking, which when it’s busy makes it extremely difficult to get the wheelchair out of the car. The car park is gravel not tarmaced so makes it very hard to push a wheelchair and makes it an uncomfortable ride for my friend and the outside only has some paths the rest is gravel so again making it impossible to see and buy all the plants, pots ect. The disabled toilet is ok, but it is up a ramp and has a tight turning area so the chair can get stuck. The cafe is good but you can not fit through the door and inside is very small, there is an outside but this is the uk and the weather is not always great. There is a lip at the bottom of the door which again makes for hard work. The staff are always polite and efficient but not always very helpful in the cafe. But if you are able to walk, then this is a lovely little place. Nice cafe, great cake, lovely plants, an indoor shop, outside seating, toilets and free parking. Brilliant.

   Ahoy there, me hearties! Let me regale ye with me recent voyage to the garden center to acquire some flowers for me planter on the ship. As a seasoned pirate, I am no stranger to seeking out treasures, and the garden center was no exception. The sight of rows upon rows of vibrant blooms and the scent of fresh earth filled me nostrils with the promise of adventure. After much consideration, I settled on a combination of marigolds and petunias that I was sure would add a touch of beauty to the deck of me ship, and withstand the salty sea air. And let me tell ye, the journey back to the ship was not without its challenges, as I had to keep a sharp eye out for any rival pirates who might try to steal me precious cargo. But upon me return to the garden center, I indulged in a delightful treat at the cafe. As a pirate, I am not one to pass up the opportunity for a tasty morsel, especially when it comes with a steaming cup of coffee to warm me bones. The cafe itself was a cozy little nook, with a view of the flowers and greenery all around. I felt like a proper gentleman, taking a break from me swashbuckling ways to enjoy a moment of quiet and relaxation. Of course, me guard was not entirely down, as I kept one eye on the surroundings, just in case any pesky rival pirates should try to ambush me. In the end, the flowers and the treat were a welcome respite from the rigors of life at sea. And now, whenever I look at those blooms, I am reminded of the adventure that brought them aboard me ship. So, if any of ye pirates find yerselves at the garden center, be sure to stop by the cafe and treat yerselves to a little indulgence. Yo ho ho, and a caffeine boost to all!

   A fairly compact but well stocked nursery with a very nice coffee shop. The shop has nice cards and gifts in addition to tools, pet and wild bird food. Also an excellent range of Christmas trees.

   Lovely little local garden centre. Fantastic customer service when choosing and collecting our 2022 Christmas tree. The little cafe looks lovely as well, so will be stopping by again soon to sample the delights in there.

   I love this small garden centre. The staff are very friendly and helpful. The plants are always healthy and its possible to order and have them delivered. The coffee shop is very clean and inviting offering a range of items to eat. The outdoor area is lovely when the weather is dry. I would recommend this garden centre as a great alternative to the large outlets.
