Bridgemere Garden Centre was opened in 1961 by John Ravenscroft as a small rose nursery. They were acquired by Wyevale in 2006 and are now one of Britain’s largest centres, selling a huge range of top-quality plants and gardening products. The centre covers six acres of award-winning show gardens and offers great shopping facilities, wildlife trails and play areas.

A 7-acre display garden dating from around 1985 is open to the public free of charge. Designed to inspire amateur gardeners, it is composed of more than twenty separate gardens, including English country, Victorian, Mediterranean, woodland, water, rose and patio gardens. The display also includes recreations of prize-winning gardens from the Tatton Park and Chelsea Flower Shows, as well as the garden in which the 1993 television series Gardener's Diary was filmed.
