Highdown Garden Centre in Ferring is an independent destination garden centre where dogs are welcome inside the retail areas. Browse homegrown plants, home and gift lines with your dog by your side, making it easier to tackle the weekend list without splitting the car park handover.
The centre offers a restaurant alongside the main shop departments and there's parking on site. It's a sizeable stop with broad appeal, useful for stocking up on seasonal bedding, pots or that elusive indoor succulent while your dog supervises from floor level.
Located around 19 miles from Chichester on the Ferring and Worthing side of the coast, Highdown is worth the journey when you're combining a longer coast run with a practical garden-centre visit. The layout is typical retail garden centre, so expect a bit of lead work between displays.
