TL;DR - A gardener's delight. Huge choice and incredibly low prices…read more Officially called "Pole Green Nurseries", but everyone I know seems to call this place "Brennan's". This place is an absolute delight. There's a car park on site, but from the road you can't really appreciate how much there is here. The main building has lots of plant food, pots and containers, ornaments and house plants. Then behind this you'll find a vast array of greenhouses filled with lots of plants - I'm particularly fond of all the fruit, vegetables and herbs they have for sale. I've had several tomato plants from here and they've all produced tremendous amounts of fruit. Then behind this is a huge outside area with all kinds of plants and you'll even find a variety of trees for sale, ranging from fruit trees and conifers to more exotic things like monkey puzzle trees. This place doesn't have the fanciness of many modern garden centres today - no gift areas, or greeting cards, or kitchen areas - and there's no cafe or toilets. But they have more plants than you could possibly imagine, and the prices are incredibly low. A monkey puzzle tree for under £15! Tomato plants for 75p! There's so much here that even with the low prices I could spend a fortune!

The Topiary cafe within seemed to be doing a roaring trade during my visit and I'm sure the outside seating will make it even more popular in the summer. There's a large crafts section and the usual posh gifts to be found in garden centres, also a food section with chutneys and more. All in all a classy garden centre which would appeal to gardeners and non-gardeners alike, a nice place to have a drive out to and a mosey around! :-)

We are never disappointed with the food on offer at the Café. One of the reasons why I didn't rate Burnside 5 stars is because it's selection of houseplants and cacti is very limited. Altogether though, a good place to visit.
