Polhill is a family owned and run business with over 50 years of gardening experience. Those who visit Polhill today find it hard to believe that it started out as a rundown nursery at the time the land was bought by Father and Son duo, Jim and David Novell. Jim first set up shop aged 46 whilst David was still at school.
After completing his education, David joined the business full time and the focus was on cut flowers for the Covent Garden Flower Market. This meant being up and ready in the early hours in order to get the wares ready for the market throngs. Within a mere two years, the business expanded into tomatoes, bedding plants, shrubs and conifers.

I enjoyed my pleasant visit to Polhill Garden Centre Ltd ( Thurs. 2/9/21). Plenty of garden choices - a fairly sizeable range of products/ implements ie. garden tools, flowers and shrubs, fencing, ornaments, garden lights, wildlife product supplies of bird feed and feeders etc. all here! I hasten to mention though, some specialist garden products for certain specialised needs and plants may have to be seeked elsewhere? However, a splendid display for sale 'of most' garden items for folk. Each time I visit here I find a little different surprise on sale, Christmas time especially. But, a special

Walk through the farmer's market, buy fresh meats from the in-house butcher, then browse the rows of gardening equipment and pet supplies. Take a coffee break or even a lunch break in the restaurant areas before moving on to the clothing, household and furniture areas. The aquarium shop is well worth a visit too, with huge carp in the indoor pool. Fantastic at Christmas. Can be a little pricey though!

One of the best garden centres in the area, offering everything you need in one place! Amongst the normal products you would expect to find - garden furniture, plants, pet supplies, etc - they also play host to a fantastic array of companies. These include Chartley Bedroom Furniture with their display of stunning hand-painted kid's beds and bedroom furniture, Limetree Pantry selling fantastic fruit and savory pies and Maidenhead Aquatics who sell products covering tropical, marine. coldwater and more! The butchers is excellent, along with the Novell restaurant and its also a great place to
