DAFFODIL WALK
Celebrate the Arrival of Spring!
Join us at Ashton’s Garden Centre and celebrate the arrival of Spring with a woodland walk lined with thousands of daffodils that’ll wash away those winter blues. With educational and interesting fact signage to be found along the way, opportunities for that perfect selfie, spots to sit and enjoy the scenery and a third of the walk along a river – you’ll feel the stresses of the world melt away as you enjoy the chance to get out after a long cold winter! We also have a large selection of Daffodils potted up and ready to take home, with many varieties you will have seen during your walk. The Daffodil Walk & Spring Celebration is not to be missed rain or shine! It is Spring, after all!
Fun for All the Kids
Let the kids run free and enjoy the great outdoors. With magical and educational signs along the walk, a free scavenger hunt and colouring sheet they’re sure to have fun! And with the introduction and expansion of our Fairy Walk there is so much to discover and inspire!

With Summer just around the corner, it’s time to think about planting up that garden, dusting off your containers and sprucing up that potting shed! Come browse our extensive range of Summer Bedding Plants, Hanging Baskets, Planters, Vegetables and Herbs in our greenhouse, or peruse our range of perennials! This year we have increased our shrubs, trees and perennials range, added our first shop unit with a range of composts, fertilisers and gardening accessories!
