Friendly and knowledgeable Staff. Plants well cared for and in good condition. Great ideas all round for presents and plant care plus other such as pets and children, cards & gifts.

Rated 2 out of 5 stars

Clifton store is disappointingly small and therefore not a real garden centre but most annoying is that there has been something wrong with the coffee machine EVERY time I have been in for a coffee.

Lovely Garden Centre

Lovely Garden Centre, but everything is so overpriced. Would really benefit and improve customer footfall if the prices weren’t so high. I’m happy to pay more for good quality product but in comparison to anywhere else it is extortionate!

In the Clifton/Preston store which I visit at least once a week and join friends for a coffee and scone we have noticed a significant decline in the standard of the scones. The mix seems to be of very poor quality. They look quite bland and lack a good quality of ingredients and flavour and at their current standard are significantly overpriced. This is not a personal opinion. It has been picked up by a number of other people. We have pointed it out to staff members and on a couple of occasions we have returned it. As a result we no longer have the scones and as far as we can ascertain the standard has not improved. U no longer have tea cakes as an alternative.
