OTTER TAUNTON GARDEN CENTRE

This independent review of the Otter Garden Centre in Taunton was written by David Marks and was last updated in November 2025.

This is an in depth review by a real human as a result of visiting this garden centre, no Artificial Intelligence is involved! We reviewed the inside and plant sales areas, took pictures (see lower down this article) and checked out the cafe.

BACKGROUND AND HISTORY OF OTTER TAUNTON GARDEN CENTRE

The Taunton Garden Centre began life as a horse livery yard and a market garden selling fruit and vegetables from a road side stall. Wyevale Garden Centres, no longer trading, bought the business in 1985 and built a brand new purpose built garden centre which opened for business in 1986.

Wyevale Garden Centres made a decision in 2018 to exit the garden centre business and they sold off all their garden centres over the next two years. The freehold of Taunton Garden Centre was sold to Otter Nurseries in April 2019 for £2,800,000.

IS OTTER TAUNTON GARDEN CENTRE DOG FRIENDLY?

No, Otter Garden Centre Taunton is not dog friendly. They do not allow dogs (except guide or assistance dogs) anywhere in the garden centre.
