OUR VIEWS ON FROSTS GARDEN CENTRE, WOBURN SANDS
THE PLANTS AREA AT FROSTS GARDEN CENTRE We were particularly pleased with the pond area which was tranquil and and stocked with lots of large fish. An information centre is also available with reference books and helpful charts. Lots of staff are available to help with any questions you may have. Access around the area is via wide, clear and even paths with no problems for wheelchair users.
THE PLANTS This is a large garden centre and they stock an equally large selection of plants. From the commoner varieties right through to more unusual varieties.

You select the items you want, including main meals, and this avoids any delay for waitress service. There is a good range of food for sale with main meals priced at £7.50 to £8.

On Sundays a selection of roast meals is sold and for early birds full breakfasts are available at good prices up to 11.30. The food is prepared on the premises and its quality is clearly evident. The salads are of generous proportions and very tasty. We also sampled the stuffed pepper and can fully recommend the food at this garden centre cafe.
