Parking: To avoid annoying our neighbours please park on our drive if at all possible. We can sort out double parking easily. If the drive is full, park opposite our drive either by the field or blocking the garage. Leave room for traffic to enter the garden centre through the barrier even if it is closed. If all else fails park by our wall or in the lane so as not to obstruct passing places or other traffic.
