Ribblesdale Garden Centre & Nurseries

Phil & assistant very helpful and informative, bought exactly what needed & others feel into my basket haha,,had heart set on Alium, good prices and different offers on :-)

Forget your generic garden centres and check out your local nurseries!

Ribblesdale is a fair size nursery with decorative stones/bark/compost to the front near the car park.

You walk through the quaint gift shop/garden accessories to the indoor plant section, which also has tubs, planters, garden features placed around. A quick look at some of the outdoor planters and I could see they were a fair price, along the lines of bigger garden centres.

On to the outdoors and you have a lovely selection of plants in the shaded section to the right as you come out.
Next to this you have the greenhouses for flowers, border plants, hanging baskets etc..

When we went they didn't have a massive amount in terms of bedding flowers as many of them were still in the growing greenhouse at the bottom but I still picked up marigolds, geraniums and verbenas for my beds.

They did have some beautiful hanging baskets ready to go, all different shapes and sizes.

The fruit trees and small trees came after the greenhouse, again these are well cared for.
After this there is a good selection of plants and shrubs on the lower section with plenty to look through.

What they lack in mass produced flowers, plants, shrubs or trees they make up for in good quality, well cared for plants that are thriving, rather than half dead!

Everything plant wise we bought on the day was well rooted and fair priced.
My plants have already shot up and have multiple flowers growing from them.
For me that's much better than the false economy of buying cheaper and having a game or roulette with which will survive!

The chap running the place was very helpful and let us know info about the plants, recommended extra items for them if needed.

No hesitation in going back, well worth a trip out to see.

Visited today and really impressed. All plants look really healthy and a great selection. Nice gift shop with good quality and really well priced stock. Staff have a wealth of experience so got the advice I was looking for. They are not just trying to push sales but telling you when to buy and when is best to plant particular plants, trees etc. Would definitely recommend.

Lovely small garden centre. Staff very helpful. Excellent quality plants. Was given an unexpected discount because I had spent quite a bit. Would definitely recommend them.

My husband just came back from R. Nursery and they were most helpful, gave good advice and went out of their way to help. Products, of course are excellent. Supporting our local businesses. ✨👌👍

Fabulous selection of bulbs also some lovely christmas decorations. James is very helful, wouldn't go anywhere else

What a fantastic garden centre! It has a great selection of both indoor and outdoor plants, a gift and card shop area , a bargain corner , a lovely relaxing water area, a sleepy resident cat (Coco) and friendly dog (Kim)! The staff were very helpful and accommodating, our items were gift wrapped for free and to my surprise my 2 children were given a free gift which was such a lovely gesture. All in all a fabulous little find! We will certainly be visiting again soon!

I have bought my bedding plants from Ribblesdale in the past but this years are a totally different quality - they have bloomed in just 2 and a half weeks. The staff were very helpful, the shop has some beautiful items, the whole place is soo much better cared for and James was telling us all about his plans going forward. Fantastic nursery - heading back again this week for some plants for my mums garden! :)
Added some photos to show the plants when first planted and what they look like now
