Prior Park Garden & Pet Centre
We know that gardening and the beauty of nature are good for relaxation and the soul. Our plant area and landscaped site is a safe place to browse seasonal plants, fruit trees and roses etc. The garden shop is spacious, well ventilated and with social distancing measures in place. Our Pet and Aquatics Centre stocks a comprehensive range pet foods and other supplies.

Social distancing measures and our spacious ventilated premises make our store a safe place to visit. The Farm Shop supplies the best of locally produced produce, including bread from Hobbs House Bakery, milk from Ivy House Farm, cheese from The Bath Soft Cheese Company, Marshfield Farm Ice Cream in addition to an eclectic selection, carefully chosen, to stock up your cupboards.

Runner beans are possibly the most popular choice for home grown vegetables, possibly alongside tomatoes.
Services
Whether you want to plant up a complete new garden, a single border or even a container for your patio, we have the plants you need, and there are always experienced, qualified staff available to help you. In winter Mahonias and Hamamelis performing reliably regardless of frost and snow, Viburnums and Forsythia brighten up the spring, Ceanothus and Lavenders are always good for summer and in the autumn Hydrangeas and Acers bring rich colours.
As a serious garden centre, naturally we stock a good range of gardening sundries. We have seeds, bulbs, composts, tools, fertilisers and all you need for pest and weed control. You are also likely to find lots of surprises. Every gardener needs a selection of tools, and we stock a large selection of quality items to help you get to grips with every task.
Our pets and aquatics centre has a reputation for high quality pets in clean, safe environments, a caring customer service team, and all the supplies and extras you'll ever need. Talk to us before deciding to purchase any pet and we'll help you make the right choice, and guide you honestly through the process.
Just like us our pets need a balanced, healthy diet, and we cater for a wide range of animals including cats and dogs, the full range of small furry animals as well as reptiles, amphibians and arachnids. We also have all those extra essentials: pet litter, grooming equipment and a range of really cozy beds.
We can help you choose appropriate species for your aquarium, whether you're looking to create a single-species or biome tank, a more family-interest community aquarium with a wider range of fish, or even a lower maintenance coldwater 'goldfish tank' that children love to learn from. Feel free to ask for advice on setting up and planting your tank, choosing compatible fish species and appropriate foods.

My eight year old insisted we go here because they have amazing sweets. He was not wrong! For around a fiver he picked up an exciting variety of sweets in a parent-worrying quantity! I would highly recommend coming here instead of the candy shops in town, especially as your kids can take a look at the animals and fish too.
I was very pleasantly surprised to revisit this garden centre after not having been in several years.

Such a gem! Friendly staff, delicious cafe offerings, a few fish for the kids to see, great books & the best thing is that the plants are all so healthy. It's smaller compared to the big garden centers these days but has immediately become my favourite

Quite alot to see here however prices are quite a bit higher than their competitors and usually with less variety when it comes to house plants, a small number of their animals in the pet section are incorrectly cared for also which loses another star, however it's an interesting visit overall. (Edited to Reply to owners comment).
The animals I refer to in particular are your arachnids and other invertebrates, your staff use things such as cotton and sponges in the water bowls, an outdated and shunned practice which was proven to be detrimental to the animals health almost 20 years ago, they harbour

Just visited cafe. As usual a quiet, calm place and definitely one of the best garden centre cafes anywhere. Too bad the coffee is only ever just warm.

I’ve been a regular customer of the Prior Park Garden Centre for circa 15 years - and I think they are just brilliant !
The staff have always been friendly, helpful and efficient and the range of plants absolutely excellent.
The internal shop area carries a seriously good range of cards, gifts, household bits and pieces, not forgetting the food shop and the pet area. The respective buyers clearly have a good eye - really cannot praise Prior Park highly enough ... Sheelagh Garner
