I've been going to this garden centre for many years now and have seen so many improvements in this time.
Recently they have had a new children's playground built which is fantastic and suits all ages. Next to the playground is a lovely little farm, but when I say little I mean little. You could easily kill 45 minutes there but not much longer. You have to pay to enter, only a few pounds and you can also buy the bags of food for the animals for a few pence. It has recently been improved and is really clean and has more animals to show.
The garden centre grounds are just lovely with plants around the walkways. They also sell a few items of garden furniture.
There is a nice little cafe there but it gets so busy I would recommend eating before you go as people are often queuing out of the door.
A few small shops surround a little courtyard including some lovely nick knack shops and a great butchers.
Our favourite part is the aquatic centre which houses 100's of fish and also small animals and birds.
Outside the entrance you will find a small market stall selling fruit and vegetables from a local farm which are great quality and competitive prices also.
There are quite a few car parking spaces but it often gets really busy especially on weekends.
All in all a lovely place to spend an afternoon
