Probably the Best Garden Centre in Cumbria (and it’s not Hayes)

Posted on by

Larch Cottage Nurseries in the village of Melkinthorpe near Penrith is as good as it gets. With Itallianate ruins, rare and unusual plants, stunning statues and a gorgeous wooden balcony you can eat your lunch on. CA10 2DR

The balcony where we had lunch, and a very refreshing Italian cider!
Some… pink flowers.
The statuary is of a much higher quality than the usual garden centre concrete tat.
Some orange… flowers.
Bullocks? No, I’m serious! – The Two Ronnies, circa 1974.
A range of, erm… flowers. (I don’t know much about flowers)
