House plants must be going out of fashion! In common with many garden centres we have visited recently, the display of houseplants at Burston was small.

Having said that the prices were reasonable and the plants looked in good condition.

The indoor sales area is pleasantly designed and laid out. There is a full range of all the gardening accessories you might need as well cards, gifts and books.

The range of indoor furniture was very comprehensive.

If barbecues are what you are looking for, then Burston Garden Centre is sure to have the one you want.

The aisles were wide and flat, no problems for wheelchair users.

The aquatics centre is called Hertfordshire Fisheries but it is owned by Burston garden Centre.

The range of fish was excellent as was the range of accessories. Feeds, tanks, plants, pumps etc., all were fully covered. The range of water features, was the best we have seen at a garden centre so far. Well worth a visit. The pictures below don't do the range justice!

Our comments about the cafe food at Burston are limited to the the small snack we had. Time prevented us from sampling more of the food.

The cafe itself is inside, and pleasantly decorated. The service is quick and pleasant. The prices are on the cheap side.

We sampled a cup of coffee (excellent) and a Cornish pasty which was atrocious. Minimal filling and very soggy pastry.
