Approval granted for catering facilities at garden centre

Saturday, 3 January 2026 15:54

Lewes District Council have granted approval for Goldcliff Garden Centre in Ringmer to establish a new on-site catering facility

The new catering unit will be housed within a 15-square-meter storage container. To ensure it blends with the surrounding environment, the structure will be clad in timber.

The facility is designed to provide food and drinks to existing patrons, attracting year-round visitors and making the business more resilient to seasonal weather fluctuations.This addition marks a significant milestone for the independent, family-run garden centre, which has been in operation since 1991.

Goldcliff Garden Centre is located north of Lewes on the A26 and is accessed via Old Uckfield Road.
