Scotsdales

I’ve been to this place many times over the years and it’s great! It has pretty much everything you could want.
It has very nice Christmas lights and displays at the moment and I would highly recommend this place to anybody looking to buy Christmas gifts for anyone.
The only problem I had was how busy it was, we were still inside the store when it was supposed to be closed and there were still loads of people inside! But other than that it’s great.

Love this place for all the lovely stuff they have. Great amount of Christmas items for sale now during the winter holidays. Great amount of aquarium fish to purchase and you can also feed them.

Met my daughter here for an early mother's day treat. Lovely items for sale and lovely plants. Had coffee and cake on arrival - very tasty then wandered round all departments before going for lunch. Again lovely choice of food and cakes. Definitely worth a visit

Love a trip to scotsdales. So many different things to look at! Lots of seasonal plants and everything thing you need to decorate and tend to your garden, from a ride on lawn mower to a window box, sheds and hot tubs. They have an amazing array of goodies to eat and drink as well as tipples, some beautiful gift ideas for the family! It also has an amazing pet/wild animal area as well as an aquatic centre, with such a lot of beautiful fish, from teeny tiny tropical and big koi carp! Also great opportunity to buy some pellets and feed them. They have a small selection of country wear as well as some very pretty jewelry. They have an extremely tasty restaurant that are very good value for money. AND now they have the most impressive selection of Christmas EVERYTHING, trees, lights, decorations, presents, tableware, honesty everything! Also a beautiful polar bear display that us and the children love to visit each Christmas. The only thing I would say is that some things can be a little pricey, but good quality at the same time.

Absolutely great for shopping especially Christmas time. We've visited the place in December and spent about 2-3 hours here looking for great deals and crafts ideas. The place is very big and we'll organised. There are several sections: garden, glass House 1, 2, 3, toys for kids, aquariums/fishes, etc.
The food in the canteen was also very tasty and fresh, the coffee and the cake mouthwatering and the "terrace-like" covered area with plenty of tables really enjoyable.
Can recommend for both adults and kids, families and people who just generally love to discover new things and ideas, or simply would like to buy a specific item. Prices are moderate and in some cases surprisingly low (managed to buy some beautiful indoor plants for a relatively very low price). I can recommend it.

Best Christmas display by far. They outclass all other garden centres in the area. Food is good too but a bit pricey for what you get. The cheese scone was too stodgy & I couldn't eat it

Great place at Christmas, with an amazing display and nice cafe. They don't really cater for coeliac allergy. But great if not an issue. And I can still just have a nice cuppa there. It gets very busy, so should tell you what a nice place it is. I always buy the Christmas mead from here, tastes amazing, and the only place I've seen sell it.

Great place to visit and grab some lunch.
They have plants, lovely gifts and pet sections as well as a cafe which can get very busy.
Recommend anyone go there with the view to spend a few hours.

Fantastic garden centre with a variety of stock, good offers and good prices. It has every plant you could imagine, from trees, to alpine plants, bedding plants and climbing plants, and their staff are very knowledgeable. I feel you have to visit to appreciate just how vast their stock is. The staff are more than happy to help, but they don't bother you if you're just browsing.

Inside the building there's also a very large gift section with books, candles, cards, bath bombs, children's toys, etc. This is also stocked with fantastic seasonal items and displays - Christmas, Easter, Halloween, etc. It's worth visiting Scotsdales for the Christmas decoration display alone.

There's also a vast pet section with everything you could think of - from treats, to bedding, to food and toys. There's food for wild animals as well - both birds and mammals. And insect houses, bird baths, bird houses and such. There's an indoor aquarium where you can buy fish, and there's a resident parrot who has been there for years (and long may he continue!).

There's a garden furniture section with a few big items like tables and chairs - pricey, but very pretty. This extends to the second floor as the first floor isn't big enough.

There's a lovely cafe there with local produce and a seasonal menu. There are plenty of places to sit, but it is a very popular cafe and can get very busy. During the summer there's also outdoor seating for the cafe as well.

There's a little food area by the checkouts with some locally sourced produce - from beers, to jams, to wine, chocolate and sweet items.

Would recommend a visit! But take your time, there's a lot to take in and you'll need at least half an hour to browse everything!

There is plenty of car parking and bicycle parking as well - this is to the left of the store entrance. There are toilets at the entrance to the store should you need them - there's also a second hand book sale here too.

At Scotsdales you can find many plants that are beautiful and afordable. Except plants there are also a lot of other things that you can find such as fish, parrots, cards, clothes, toys and books. Amazing place

The atmosphere during the xmas period is phenomenal, beautiful and dazzling. The staff were very polite and helped me with my queries. Prices aren't too bad and there's a huge amount of variety. They have quite a large section on pets, including a variety of fish and a talking parrot.

A very extensive garden center. The Christmas display is truly amazing. Cafe area is well managed particularly during busy periods. Menu is very good. Certainly worth a visit.

Fabulous store. Took all my will power not to spend huge amounts of money. Lots of inspirational ideas for your garden. Prices very competitive. The garden restaurant was gorgeous. Gorgeous cakes and goodies. An amazing array of garden goodies. You will love it.

Magical decorations worth a visit children would love it

Its a very bad idea to shop at Scotsdales. Guaranteed you will leave the store with waaay more than you intended to buy! Such gorgeous Christmas decor and yummy treats and pretty plants! We have eaten at the restaurant twice. Its always busy but the food is yummy.

Love this place, good range of plants and accessories and so very Christmasy, perfect just to visit for that.
Cafe good, great cakes selection, even the roast is better than some pubs.

Spent a number of hours perusing, drinking coffee having lunch and relaxing as we waited for a relative to have an op. Scotsdales was ideal. Friendly, lovely cafe with some vegan options and comfortable seating area. The retail therapy was enjoyable too. I would certainly go again.

Great helpful and friendly service from the staff outside in the sheds and fencing department (around to the left of the main entrance). They sorted out a replacement Calor gas cylinder very efficiently. Thanks.

They are currently doing some building work, which we'll result in the original outside area being under cover. From what i can see so far, it's going to be very impressive. The outside area has been moved to a cordoned off area on the car park.

Scottsdale's Shelford: l am reminded with the Queen's Jubilee coming as a celebration that Scotsdales can put on wonderful displays according to the season of celebration. So have a look to see what they are doing now!

Large outlet now selling more goods than plants. Great place to it cards presents and some clothes. Well stocked up at Christmas and Easter
