Cameron Garden Centre is gorgeous to walk around. Trust me, I'm not even interested in gardening…read morebut I still really like this place. I've my parents, who enjoy gardening, to thank for introducing me to this spot. It used to be called Ballylesson Garden Centre but was renamed Cameron a couple of years ago. It's full of flowers, plants, trees, shrubs, garden furniture, BBQ equipment, bulbs, seeds, garden ornaments, gifts and plant pots. I love to browse and look at everything but have never bought anything (I don't do gardening!). However, my parents advise me it's expensive, so if you're into gardening you might want to visit Cameron Garden Centre for inspiration but possibly buy elsewhere. There's a lovely Cafe & Deli on site which serves scrumptious food. I've tried sandwiches, scones and salads over the years and the food has always been delicious. My gripe is that it's queue up to order and get your food. I hate this set up and much prefer table service, especially in a cafe like this where the food is of good quality. Plus Cameron's Cafe can be extremely busy and tables aren't cleared as quickly as I think they should be. The customer service definitely needs some work also as the Cafe staff are never very pleasant. Nonetheless, this place potentially could be great and a 5 star spot if they dropped prices a little and invested in some proper customer service training for their Cafe staff. I would still recommend it though as it is such a beautiful location.

We visited here after the food came highly recommended by a friend…read more About a 15 mins drive outside of Lisburn to Ballylesson. The entrance is filled with a great range of scrubs and plants and hanging baskets of herbs. The cafe is conveniently located at the back where you have to pass through a gift shop of condiments and craft shop style presents. Seating area inside and out. The food is kept in heated glass cabinet so you can see before you choose. Lots of quiches, pasta and sandwiches with salad etc. All around £6-10 I enjoyed the food and look around after. Purchased some great plants for family. Would recommend both food and viewing.

I ordered trees and hedging through Woodcroft Landscapes' online shop and was really impressed with…read morehow easy the process was. The plants arrived healthy, well-packaged, and exactly as described. It's clear their nursery stock is top quality and well cared for. On top of that, I've seen some of the landscaping projects they've completed, and the standard of work looks excellent, professional, tidy, and built to last. You can tell they take real pride in both the plants they grow and the gardens they create. Between the convenience of the online shop and the craftsmanship of their landscaping, Woodcroft Landscapes is a company I'd highly recommend.

It's labelled as a Garden Centre, and they do sell plants and saplings, and Christmas trees at the…read moreusual time of year, but I think they could do a lot better in here. It's a local family run fruit and vegetable shop, but it's a bit old and tired. I know the important thing about a fruit'n'veg shop is the freshness and quality of the produce, and I will get to that, but I think if they gave this place a face-lift it would invite people in a lot more and encourage them to spend more. It hasn't changed in all the time I've known it. As for the produce, it's fine. It's quite well-priced too, reasonable and affordable. They don't do a massive wide-range of veg, you won't see anything unusual here, which is a shame because I think they would get more custom if they branched out towards being a little more 'gourmet' in their approach. For a local Fruit'n'Veg shop, it's fine.

There are not many garden centres you could have a full day out in, but you could with Dobbies…read more It's an amazing centre with everything you could possibly want including garden furniture, ornaments, summer houses, garden sheds, plants, bird tables and gardening equipment. Dobbies also have a fabulous restaurant and luxury food hall filled with delicious meals, desserts, wine and gourmet food. It can often be very busy and some items are not the cheapest, however for quality and selection it gets top marks.

Apart from customer services, the products were good.
