What it does
The principal activity of the company is the operation of a garden centre, trading as Highfield Garden World. There has been no significant change in this activity during the year. Our core focus is gardening, offering a large range of shrubs, plants, trees and garden requisites. Typically for British Garden Centres, we also stock non-gardening ranges, including home and garden furniture, books, foods, giftware, toys, bird food and cookware as well as a pet and aquatic department and seasonal offerings, such as Christmas decorations, trees and lighting. We also have an onsite restaurant, open all day for drinks, snacks and full meals, several concessions offering clothing and arrange coach trips throughout the year.
