The Book "Garden Centres and
Nurseries of Britain" by
Country Living Magazine
This will be a short review because, in our opinion, this book has very little to
recommend it.
The book is principally a list of the names and addresses of garden centres and
nurseries in alphabetic order within county. You are also provided with their phone
number. A few entries list the specialities and a very few have a description
accompanying their listing. These descriptions are always complimentary and that
makes them hard to believe. Not one single criticism indicates that the descriptions
are probably provided by the owners of the garden centre. Certainly, they are of
little use.
Almost all the entries give no idea of the size of the garden centre or
nursery and they simply list the address and phone number, nothing more. No details of
cafes, no details of disabled access, no opening times, nothing! Our recommendation is
to forget this book, it serves no useful purpose. Published By: Travel

REVIEW
The editor of Country Living Magazine, Susy Smith writes "a must to keep in the car
or on the bedside table". Possibly that's true, but leave it in the car or on the
table and don't bother to read it!
