If you walk out of the garden centre, turn left and walk about 5 minutes, just past the row of houses there is a field on the right with a wooded area where you can walk your dog. The garden centre itself is really nice with the dog friendly cafe at the back. There's a small play area for younger children in the cafe. There's a petrol station with a Londis on the other side of main road before you turn down to the garden centre, non-motorway prices!
