Gardens in Derby, Derbyshire

“I nearly drove out of the very busy car park as the greenhouses looked very neglected. I'm so glad I found a space. This is a little hidden gem. Although not a huge variety of plants on offer, those that are, are healthy and well cared for and easy on the pocket. They have a small selection of garden accessories as you enter and I found a lovely arched b garden mirror which had been reduced, so a happy shopper.We then went to the cafe which is extremely popular so be warned, in fact I would say that this is the main reason why people visit.The staff are attentive and helpful, the service is quick and the food is delicious and hot and very reasonably priced. They serve breakfast for meat eaters and veggie tastes both large and small plus a selection of light lunches and cakes. I highly recommend a visit. Go past the Crematorium and the centre is just on the right. It's a tight narrow entrance which I missed but there is a turningcircle just below so no problem.”

“We had a lovely lunch here today. The food was good and the atmosphere was great. Lots of chatting and no noisy music. Brilliant. The staff are efficient and very helpful. They were always happy to give advice. We found everything we were looking for and made our purchases. There is so much to see and there are lots of options. We bought two indoor mats and I bought a handbag....just what I wanted. Also we ordered a circular stone paving for the garden. We were so pleased that we could buy all these items from the Garden Centre.”

“Quite nice, plenty of plants, nice garden ornaments and some really nice garden furniture. Also a pleasant café with good food and drinks. Friendly and helpful staff, worth the visit.”
