Moulton Nurseries

Moulton Nurseries is a dog-friendly independent garden centre in Moulton St Mary, about eight miles northwest of Acle and a good stop for dog owners travelling between Norwich and the Norfolk coast. Dogs are welcome inside the garden centre on lead, so you can browse plants, gifts, homeware and outdoor living together without leaving anyone in the car.

The centre offers proper retail depth across several departments, making it useful for a longer wander when you need more than a quick pot-and-go. There's also a coffee shop on site, though café dogs are limited to a covered outside area rather than the indoor seating.

It works well as a destination break on the way to or from Wells-next-the-Sea, particularly if you're combining coast trips with errands on the Norwich side. The garden centre is family-run, open year-round and large enough to justify the detour when you need plants, gifts or a caffeine stop that won't split the group.
