A large garden centre with lots of good quality plants, garden equipment and various other ornaments, pots, etc. Good service and good quality. The car park is quite small and gets crowded during the weekends abs holidays.

Beautiful, well cared for plants, kind staff, clean store and great selection. Love just coming here for a walk around and then pick up a lil plant to take home.

Very nice place to find probably any plant you could think of for your garden, balcony or window shelf :) a bit on expensive side though... For example 6x strawberry plants are 99DKK

La Hougue Bie

La Hougue Bie is a Neolithic ritual site which was in use around 3500 BC. Hougue is a Jèrriais/Norman language word meaning a \'mound\' and comes from the Old Norse word haugr. The site consists of 18.6m long passage chamber covered by a 12.2m high mound. The site was first excavated in 1925 by the Société Jersiaise. Fragments of twenty vase supports were found along with the scattered remains of at least eight individuals. Gravegoods, mostly pottery, were also present. At some time in the past, the site had evidently been entered and ransacked.

In Western Europe, it is one of the largest and best preserved passage graves and the most impressive and best preserved monument of Armorican Passage Grave group. Although they are termed \'passage graves\', they were ceremonial sites, whose function was more similar to churches or cathedrals, where burials were incidental.
