The Orchard Tea Rooms

with a friend taken to lunch and decided on a creamtee. it was literally the best homemade warm sense with jam and saw that I had in a long time and I had a lot of cream teas.

this is a beautiful garden center. the plants and flowers are well presented and of great quality. eating in caffe is the top class and the surrounding gardens are a joy to go round. her courtroom also has so much to offer! the service that is received by all employees is the second to none!

holme gardens is a really great facility in this part of dorset, but would be good to travel. the load includes a wide range of interesting foods, the gardens are inspiring and the caffe with two outside ponds the best I have ever experienced in a garden center. Go on what you do. they have developed a brilliant place!

I’ve never been before but was recommended by a friend.Beautiful herbaceous borders , amazing colour combinations and stylish layout . Butterflies and birds in abundance and of course the pollinators. Will definitely be going back . Reasonable priced cafe with seating areas outside by ponds full of water Lilly . Stunning

beautiful garden center, with knowledge and helpful staff. great tea rooms, with fabulous cream teas (also other great foods) and beautiful, inspiring gardens to go through. also, a farm with wonderful broth, fresh vegetables, tasty quiche, beer, apple wines, frozen pastries and numerous other tasty ones. holme is a great place to visit for so many reasons. my family is really regular; we love the place!

I am a regular here and we love it. Bought lots of plants over the years and eaten st the Orchard Cafe many times and always found it excellent. The cooked breakfasts are great and the lunches are superb from the salads to the lasagne it's all freshly cooked. In the winter months the soup and fresh bread are delicious. I have also bought my Xmas tree here for years. Service in all areas is great and the farm shop is perfect.

I love holme gardens. my favorite garden center and caffe. the plants are luxuriant, the pots are fab, the gardens beautiful, the earthy to die, the court-laden excellent, the pond a joy, the caffe a 'must stop for coffee place', the cake delish, and the gift shop great. add up on this knowledgeable and approachable garden staff, a large dog hanging around to supervise and very friendly staff and they have holme gardens. I wish I lived there.

A wonderful place to eat and visit the staff are all soooo nice Simon and Liz and their staff always have time for you. When sunny sit outside by the pond and enjoy the lovely plants and fish. At the moment the gardens are just great with loads and loads of Tulips a wonderful sight please do go and pay them a visit now need to travel to Holland!!! And all the plants are good to with great advise to boot should you need it. Support your local garden center I say. Thanks to all the Team there.

I have been coming to Holme for years and all of my family love the cafe with there excellent food and the gardens. But to be told we now have to pay £3.00 each to walk round the gardens we have decided to go to either the Wishing well at Upwey where if you pay for a meal the entrance is free or Moreton gardens where again the food is excellent and there beautiful gardens are free to walk round all they ask for is a donation. We have bought so many roses, hanging baskets and spent a fortune in the Cafe but I am afraid you have lost our custom
