Trelawney is a big garden centre located in Ashford. Outside the garden centre there is a pond that…read morealways has really well fed looking fish and there is a little park for your children to play in. I quite like it in the summer as you can walk round the grounds. Outside they also have a variety of plants, garden sheds and garden ornaments that you can buy. Inside there is a big choice of plants, gifts (especially at Christmas) and they have café which has seating in and outside. A few times we have been to the café and had a roast dinner which was lovely. At Christmas time the garden centre normally sells lots of decorations and has a Santa's grotto. The garden centre always looks really well looked after I'm not really into flowers but I still enjoy looking around there and my daughters do as well.

I can only speak from a gardening point of view, but this place is awesome. The range of plants…read morethey have is amazing and better value than you'll find elsewhere in Barnstaple. B & Q may sell 24 bedding plant plugs for £4 but at BJ's you'll get more mature and healthy plants for your money. Their selection of herbs is better than I have ever seen anywhere else, they really do sell any that you could think of including umpteen varieties of thyme, mint and sage. Perenials are also very good value, they have a range of plants starting at £1.79 for example. They also sell fruit plants including gooseberries etc, strawberries and rhubarb crowns. Their range of gardening sundries is superb, they sell loads of different planters and containers and every type of feed and pest killer you could ever want. Other outdoors-y things are great, loads of various types of bird food, BBQ supplies, flip-flops, you name it! I myself am off there after work to buy a paddling pool to dunk my feet in after a hard afternoon's digging on my allotment. Go to BJ's and spend some money, you won't regret it!

Incredibly well hidden away, a real little treasure. Outside they sell very traditional garden…read morefurniture, such as bird baths, picnic tables, and a rather unusual garden shed. Inside the Potting shed sells many little household items and gifts which are pretty, practical, or a combination of both. I personally fell in love with the vintage ladybird learn to sew kits and little boys will love all the Beano goodies. I can't further express how easy it is to miss this place, If it hadn't been recommended it would have been so easy to miss. REALLY worth checking out, whether you live (it's worth the journey).
