A big garden centre in Bolton. Lots of already grown flowers and grasses available here. If you wished to grow from scratch, seeds are available near to the till. Also, you can find all you need for your garden, such as garden gloves, pipes, and furniture. I believe I will come again very soon.
Great little garden centre, restaurant on site (with soft play area) which was a really tasty meal. Lots of plants with some great prices and offers
We haven't been here for quite some time. It's mid Autumn but not yet Halloween and yet everywhere is gearing up for Christmas, including here. I don't want to focus on that though. Autumn is still a time to enjoy the garden and the countryside, you just need a jumper and some waterproofs. With that in mind, a visit here is definitely worthwhile. There is a huge selection of plants and shrubs for this time of year. More importantly they all seem well tended and healthy. If you're after that statement piece, there are some amazing examples including the horse in the picture although you will have to part with a significant amount of money for that one. There's an extensive range of paving, pots and accessories. On top of all this there is a good selection of indoor items including clothing and toys. With a restaurant, rest rooms, a large car park with good access it has everything you need. I took some pictures to try and show what it has to offer for the garden.
Lovely Christmas meal and great value. Lee the Manager and all the staff were so helpful and the meals were of excellent quality and served hot. If you want a good meal then try this place you won't be disappointed. Well done Lee you have worked hard to improve this restaurant.
A well stocked garden centre with a wide variety of plants and accessories. The restaurant serves traditional home cooked dishes at a reasonable price. Easy access by car with a lot of parking and a dedicated kids play area for young children
I decided to call as it's very local for me but my last experience, probably about a year ago, was very disappointing. I wasn't expecting any great changes but I was wrong. The staff are friendly and the displays much improved. The gifts department, although a little expensive, has items you wouldn't find anywhere else, lovely if you want a gift for someone that is a little different. The café too has (and still is) had a revamp with a small carvery section and a good selection of meals, snacks and cakes. The staff, again, were very cheerful and the extension into the bright and open part (previously where the indoor plants were) is delightful. Give it another try and check out the improvements.
One of my favorite garden centres. The choice of products is amazing. Massive indoor shopping area selling clothes, indoor plants ornaments, garden furniture water features, the list is endless. There is a cafe on site and toilets. Another large area outside, full of beautiful plants trees, and more garden furniture. We'll worth a visit.
Just been to the restaurant in the garden centre today. Had the Carvery, which I must say it is the best Carvery I've been to in a very long time. Most of the local carvery's are terrible but this one is excellent and very clean and food nice and hot. Well, it's worth a visit.
They also have a nice varied menu too.
Garden centre has a really good selection of plants, all reasonably priced. The gift and toy areas are a bit pricey. The cafe has extended out into the conservatory ,which is lovely if the
weather isn't too hot outside. The food is average i recently had the misfortune of waiting over 30 minutes to have tomato and veg soup, when it finally arrived it was a bowl of soggy veg with tomato juice, may have improved if they'd used a blender....the cafe wasn't busy. The cafe does serve nice chips, so if that's your thing I do recommend them. Overall its okay but I would only go for the plants
I am a member of the British Garden Centres and i must say I absolutely love the Bolton Garden Centre. I usually book soft play for my children and they have the best time, it is only £1.50 for an hours play. They have a brilliant seating area where you can watch your children play through a glass wall. There is also a garden at the rear should we fancy sitting outside. I love sitting after ordering a fresh cream cake and a hot chocolate to relax with while my children play. Also, the Christmas display is out on show now! It is spectacular! An amazing and beautiful display done by the staff at Bolton. I cant wait to visit again!x
This place is a hidden gem drove past a few times as was very busy, I do understand why it is always busy after today's trip, their is so much selection and just a pleasant place to visit will definitely visit again
A great garden centre with a vast selection of outdoor and indoor plants. Plants are well looked after, healthy and displayed with care. Clothes and gifts also stocked along side a cafe and play area for small children. Years ago when my son was little he used to love riding in the car trollies. We always purchase our grit and gravel from here, with frequent offers available. Well worth a visit.
I love visiting this garden centre now, the staff are lovely, there are many different choices of things to purchase (not just gardening items and plants) and the restaurant is a great place with a wide choice of food and drinks!
I’ve visited the restaurant twice now for lunch on my own between my client meetings and both experiences I have really enjoyed and felt very comfortable as a single diner.
Much improved under current management. Quality plants and delightful cafe including a carvery 3 times a week.
Well what can I say? Compost, pokemon toys and crunchy nut cornflake cakes, all within a 15 square metre radius. What a place!
I live about a mile away from here and have never been before until today. A great garden centre with a number of different departments. Not many staff about on hand to ask for advice, but did manage to find someone eventually. The soft play I was very impressed with, and has an area specifically selling outdoor garden toys for kids. The cafè is good, but coyld be a lot better without much effort. Just stop using frozen food and go freah as it makes a big difference. Prices for some things are on the steep side there, but if you live in the area, and cant be bothered going to Bents, then this is a good second choice.
Lovely place to browse and shop and find all those interesting gift ideas particularly for Christmas. Well worth a visit.
Had a lovely morning catch up in the play area. Definitely recommend for toddlers
