Customer Reviews
A wonderful herbal paradise for lovers of herbs and nature. Beautiful walking trails around the gardens and along the river. Utterly amazing selection in apothecary shop with rows and rows of herbs, potions and herbal products. Delicious gluten and dairy free courgette fritters in restaurant with lovely views and served by two robot waitresses Katiebot and Bellabot. A grand day out.
We stopped here for a coffee. But if you like tea this is the place to be. I think you can make a choice between almost 100 different kinds of tea, there is even a blue tea! And you can buy the also a d baby, many different herbs. Food is very good. And, if you have time, you can make a nice walk in the Botanic garden. It was a nice surprise stop "en route ".
I didn’t get the chance to wander around the garden, but the shop itself was amazing – such a huge range of spices, soaps, fragrances and more. They’ve got loads of their own products too. Definitely worth a stop, even if you’re coming from a bit further away.
