When Acorn Nursery first opened its doors in 1985, who could have guessed it would grow into the local institution it is today! We are know home to a large plant and garden centre, a gift shop and a cafe. Acorn Nursery is known and beloved for top-quality plants and garden products, unique gifts, and expert service from our team of qualified horticulturalists.
Tony has been the Nursery Manager from the very beginning and what he doesn't know about gardening isn't worth knowing! He is constantly smiling, and will always take the time to advise you on how to get the most out of your garden or diagnose any garden woes. When he's not in the nursery motivating his team, he's busily writing Tony's Tips in our monthly newsletter.

You might not think it from the rather damp weather we've been having but October is when things really start to get going in the garden. We've had the slow build of blossom and the first green shoots. We're all a bit disappointed to still be in lockdown but at least the weather is warming up and spending time outdoors and in the garden is even more enjoyable!

Lovely to be able to go and browse all of the beautiful plants and homewards. Very happy with my purchase and the service. Shame not everyone was enjoying the freedom we now have. Making a spectacle of one's self is unbecoming behaviour and those who feel the need to do this should stay home. Kudos to the owner and staff who had to deal with that idiot.

We've ordered plants from Acorn twice now - both times (one during lockdown, one outside lockdown) the plants have been delivered VERY quickly (same day or next day when ordered late on a Sunday night!) The plants themselves have been lovely, healthy and a great size and the customer service is delightful. Worth every cent. We'll be back as we continue to develop our little garden!

Great Nursery , apparently been here for some years, it's served the best lattes l have had in a very long time. Perfection from the Barista. Great cafe attached, gift shop too. Excellent service and advice all round . Also had lunch whilst we were there ,eating on the deck overlooking the magnificent gardens with very healthy plants and pots for sale.

Acorn nursery is plant heaven, full of lush life, flowers with a cafe and gift shop within. The quality of the plant range is expansive however expensive. The breakfast was okay, I order Dukkah eggs with haloumi, the flavour was average and the halmoumi was disappointing thin. The coffee was burnt and took 15 minutes to come out. Good place if you want to burn money on plants and like your coffee already burnt.
