Dobbies Garden Centres

I love this place! It’s quite big, light and airy full of lots of lovely stuff — including some really good bargains too! Everyone can come and mooch as there is something for everyone.
It is of course great for the gardener — everything you need and could want. But there is so much more too — clothes, toys, cosmeics, books, crafts, barbecues, disability aids, pet care and even an aquarium centre with lots of different tropical fish.
Then there is a delicatessen with some of my favourite different foods. You can get all sorts of unusual and special foods and you absolutely know they will all be tasty! From frozen French croissants, fresh breads, cakes biscuits to deli meals, cheeses, pies, chocolates and basically everything that you just fancy!
Last — but definitely not least! — the restaurant.
It caters for everyone with a huge array of choices available, — coffees and teas, cakes and snacks and even full meals are all displayed very enticingly. Everything I’ve ever had here has been delicious.
Well worth a visit!

Big store now. Large café area and plenty to potter round. None of my plants bought there have struggled. The newer deli area has a mixed bag of local and interational foody goodies though a little pricey.
Has pet area which is extensive and animals seem well cared for though I always feel a bit uneasy with pet stores.
Store is pretty much accessible by car only but I guess all garde centres tend to be like this. Plenty of free parking and next door is the Badger pub if you work up a thirst
