Pet Centre
The Pet Centre stocked a range of small animals
including birds, guinea pigs ad hamsters. They were all healthy and
kept in clean conditions.There were also a surprisingly large
number of snakes for those so inclined! See the picture on the left
of the interesting red snake. Tortoises were also on offer. |
Aquarium Centre
There were lots of tropical fish on offer, well displayed and healthy
looking.
In addition there were a couple of tanks with salt water
creatures in them. Starfish, fish and some very weird creatures with
just on bulging eye. The standard range of feeds and specialist equipment was
available and keenly priced. |

Restaurant / Cafe Facilities
 |
We enjoyed our meal at the Lemon Grove Cafe very
much. It was clean and pleasantly laid out with a covered outdoor
area as well. Several hot specials were on offer at around £5.99.
We sampled the ham and chicken pie pie which was tasty and large
enough to feed two! Also available were filled, baked potatoes at
£4.25, salads, snacks, tea and coffee. The cakes looked delicious. |
| The prices were average to good and the quality
overall was good. Service was fast and pleasant with no queues at
the self service areas or the tills. This was an achievement because
we visited at the height of the season and the cafe was nearly full.
The cafe was well-designed, decorated imaginatively with large
banana plants in the covered outdoor area.
High chairs for toddlers were available.
In May 2007, the Lemon Grove Cafe was awarded the Somerset Hygiene
Award.

House Plants
The house plant section was in the middle area of the indoor sales area
and stocked a good range of healthy looking plants. They were
particularly well laid-out. Prices were average
Disabled Facilities
 |
Wheel chairs were available at the entrance for no cost. The aisles were
wide enough for wheelchair access to all areas and the floor surface was
flat all round with very few slopes. Toilet facilities for the
disabled are also present and kept in good condition. |
Car Park
The car park was flat and well surfaced with lots of parking area. There
was an overflow car park available for peak times.
Toilets
Not very well signed, but we did find them without having to ask
directions! They were clan and well maintained. There were toilets for
the disabled.

Summary
 |
A very pleasing garden centre with an attractively laid out
interior. Sanders Garden World has no major drawbacks but several
good points.
These included the large children's play area, the good
quality cafe and the extensive range of plants especially the roses
and fruit trees. |
We can thoroughly recommend this garden centre
and if you are around junction 22 of the M5 feeling a bit peckish,
we recommend you take a 5 minute diversion to their cafe.
