Outdoor accessories can really help you to make the most of your garden. At Gates you’ll find a massive range of high-quality garden and patio furniture, chimeneas, solar lighting and everything you could need for a summer picnic.

If it’s something for the home you are looking for then look no further! We have a beautiful selection of cushions, throws, oak furniture and kitchenware to choose from. Renew your home accessories, find the perfect gift or accessory for your home and enjoy browsing through our huge range!

If you are looking to experience the best in local produce then Gates Farm Shop is a must. With a focus on offering the finest produce, sourced locally wherever possible, Gates Farm Shop promises customers a true foodie experience.
