Grafty Garden Centre, Maidstone, Kent

great designs good value for money

We are a family who loves its garden. We try to decorate it in various ways and to keep it entertainign. Grafity garden centre is one of our favoutite places when it comes to new items.

The Garden Centre is magnificent. My wife adores this place.

One can find some really good things here, though, for me it is a bit expensive.

I have to say.. Well done Grafty.

I had visited this garden centre about a year ago and have to say the whole place looked a little untidy; however I had recently had a leaflet from grafty posted to me with some very good offers so I decided to take a trip out. When I walked through the door, I was greeted by a pleasant member of staff which I have to say is a rarity now as most garden centres are very commercial and staff I find are not very friendly, along with this they had some excellent plants and a very large range of seed potatoes a lot cheaper than anywhere I've seen.

The garden centre look much tidier then my previous visit and the staff were very friendly.

My advice is give it try if you want to visit a real garden centre that's not commercialised.

The location of Grafty Garden Centre was very nice but I thought some of the plants looked tired with a few dead leaves etc. The birdseed range was good but the plants were quite expensive as I found out by seeing it somewhere else for a much better price and in better condition. The little tearoom was fine and we sat on the verandah to have our drinks which was quite pleasant,

I love the Grafty Garden Centre. Even though it takes me an hour to drive there it is worth the effort. Their hand reared birds are a treat to see and the cockatiel I bought from them is so tame she sits by the door of the cage waiting for a cuddle and has never attempted to bite me. The staff are really friendly and helpful and the cafe serves delicous coffee and cake.

I dont even have a garden but it is a pleasant drive through pretty villages to get there and well worth it.

I have used the Grafty Garden Centre many times. Yes it is old style nursery garden centre but you get the old style service and plant info to go with it, it is also dog and pet friendly. I can take my dog and after shopping, there is a big field I can run my dog on before we get back in the car.

Situated in the heart of beautiful Kent this is a garden centre for serious gardeners. Has a large range of plants and knowledgeable staff. Sometimes may seem deserted but thats because it's such a large site.They also have a large aquatic dept. I've always used them and found it a breath of fresh air from your usual garden centre! Would recommend

Stumbled upon Grafty Garden Centre whilst out for a Sunday drive around Maidstone, Kent. How it survives I will never know. It's in the middle of nowhere with little or no passing traffic and looks as if it was established in the 70's- nothing wrong with that, but the stock, service and decor looks a it it's still there in my opinion. Little or no staff to be found for advice and help, stock was thin on the ground, watermarked and very old. Plenty of parking spaces but not a lot else. Sorry, but if I owned I would say a serious amount of investment is needed or a relocation and most likely both.
