Aquatics and Pets Centres
There was no aquatics or pets shops at Russell's as would be expected
for nurseries of this size.
Restaurant / Cafe Facilities
The cafe was closed for refurbishment and is due to re-open in 2008.
We will review it next year and include details here.
Disabled Facilities
We would not recommend this garden centre for the disabled. The ground
was not always even, and parts of the site would be inaccessible for a
wheel chair. The refurbishment in 2008 is designed to correct this
problem.
Toilets
Not inspected.
Other Facilities
 |
On site is another nursery,
Avondale. Sadly, it was closed on
the day we visited but we hope to visit it shortly. The opening
hours currently are Tuesday to Sunday (closed Mondays). Note that
the nursery is also closed for lunch 12.30 to 2.00.
If the display gardens (see below) were anything to judge by, it
should be a worthwhile visit. |
| For £2.00 (or free if you buy any plants from Avondale), you can
wander round the small display garden. It's packed with plants that
are for sale at the nursery. |
 |
 |
The bonus of the display garden is that you can see a wide range
of perennials, all in a natural setting.
Each plant is labelled (Clematis recta Purpurea on the left) so
if you see something you fancy, you also know what name it has. |
