The premier gardening information source
Aquarium and Pet Centre
The aquatics centre a was hosted by
Maidenhead
Aquatics.
The range of tropical and coldwater fish for sale was truly
astonishing especially given the size of this sales area. All the fish
looked healthy and well-kept. There was also a comprehensive range of
aquatic accessories including a full range of tanks at various prices
and sizes. If you keep fish and live near Woodlands then it's well worth
a trip. Even someone with little interest in fish will find the aquatics
centre well worth viewing. Woodlands stock no pets as far as we
could see, however they had a moderate range of pet accessories. Restaurant / Cafe Facilities
It was attractive, clean and airy. On our visit there were free
shoulder massages available from a local business at the entrance! The cafe caters for groups and this is made clear on the
advertising boards. The service was excellent with almost no queues for
food and tables readily available. We rate the cafe as one of
the best for the choice and quality of hot main meals. The range of
snacks and drinks was also of high quality. Our expert tea drinker rated
their tea as the best! Disabled Facilities Toilets Directions and Contact A map can be found

Wheel chairs are available on site with no charge and no deposit
required. The aisles round the various areas allowed easy access most of
the time, although a couple of areas were on the narrow side for
manipulating a wheel chair round corners. We did not see any areas which
could not be reached using a wheel chair.
The toilets were clean with no queues.

We recommend Woodlands for all your gardening needs. The
range of plants available is large and it's easy to find your way
around. The prices are average for a large garden centre but look out
for some very attractive special offers.
