HOUSE PLANTS
|
There was only a very small range of houseplants for sale. What
there was looked in good condition and at average prices. There was
an unusually large proportion of carnivorous plants for sale. |
OTHER FEATURES
|
 |
On the same site were Alexandra Conservatories. They
specialise in up market conservatories and cane furniture.

to access their website. The display of conservatories was
particularly impressive, we counted 12 large conservatories in
all. |
|
Also on site were Clearwater Leisure.

They specialise in hot tubs. At the time of our visit
they were in the middle of a product upgrade so not many tubs were
available on display. Normally though they have around 12 models on
display. |

AQUATICS AND PETS
 |
Roundtrees garden centre have their own medium sized aquatics
shop which is well stocked with a variety of fish. They are
well-looked after by the staff and a £6,000 pump and water filter
system. The water is automatically changed on a regular basis
ensuring the fish are not stressed and the water is kept crystal
clean. |
The aquatics centre stocks a good range of accessories
including feeds, tanks and pumps.
There are no pets for sale but there was a comprehensive
range of feeds and accessories for all the common pets.
CAFE
The cafe at Roundtrees is not mentioned on their website which is
strange because it is excellent. The food is mainly aimed at light
lunches, snacks and cakes but there were also a few well chosen hot
specials.
Prices were good, the hot specials were all around £5
which is excellent value. The cafe is light and airy with both indoor
and outdoor seating. The food is good quality with hot food being served
to your table. At the time of our visit we expected few people to be in
the cafe but this was not the case at this garden centre cafe. Sometimes
the best cafes need no advertising and this was clearly the case here.
DISABLED FACILITIES
Most of the site was accessible in a wheelchair although some parts of
the outdoor plant area were gravel. The aisles were generally wide and
flat although there were more slopes than normal. Toilets for the
disabled were available.
TOILETS
The toilets were clean and presentable.
CAR PARKING
Car parking was easy and plentiful for the size of garden centre.
