My group’s experience was sadly not like the other reviewer. I can only assume that the grumpy and rude staff member we came across was not in evidence when he came here. The cakes are good, the various things are eclectic and mysterious but we cannot agree with the other review as it stands. A discussion with management elicited an immediate and probably sincere apology so hopefully will be better another time. So many fascinating things to see across the whole site. Well worth a visit with time to burn especially if you have a taste for the slightly odd.

Based a little way East of hard core Bristol this garden centre is a little different! It almost reminds me of the plant sanctuary type places you see on holiday. As well as all the standard range of indoor, outdoor and water plants they also offer some rather unusual furniture and garden ornaments, including some animal themed ones! There’s a real nice tea shop where I sampled a delicious slice of Victoria Sandwich Cake. They’re website details the flowers and plants they stock so it’s a good idea to check if they’ve got what your after before you make the journey there.

Bit of a weird one, and I don’t normally frequent garden centres, but my encounter with this place was unusual I want to share it. Totem poles and serious-looking masks glowered at the entrance, and I crept past to an oasis of water features, palm trees and funky looking plants. There’s a tiny florists shop, a desert-mock up with sand, cactus and wheelbarrows, and all manner of Buddha statues and incense burners. Architectural junk sits amidst trees and herbs(some that have lasted for several months in my garden and I’m far from green-fingered!) Long outbuildings house mirrors, terracota pots and rugs — all bright and inexpensive. Best bit: homemade lemon cake and a pot of proper char in the café. Well, all that gardening is thirsty work afterall!
