Ideal Home Show 2025

I was very disappointed this year as I hoped being as it was an ideal home and garden show they would be something actually for the garden and there wasn’t there was plenty of garden furniture but the...re was no plants flowers basket except with nothing. The only thing there was was a few pots you could purchase And a couple of tools and that was it. There wasn’t really anything that was particular you and exciting it was the same old thing mops, shamus, handbags , teeth whitening, plastic covers for your containers and such like I would however say it’s always nice to visit the food hall but again even that wasn’t very Inspiring real disappointment I did expect at least being as it was a spring show there would be stuff for your garden other than garden furniture just a load of beds and sofas and the usual hot tubs, ectMehr lesen

Don't bother going. It was a load of tack. We will never go again

Went with my man as we are both looking for ideas as we refurb our homes. Shocking. So mediocre and disappointing. More choice on our failing high streets than in this environment. What do teeth whi...tening stalls have to do with Ideal homes? There were a couple of those. Wigs? Yup, bling jewellery, festival clothing.... was I in the wrong place? Also billed as a food festival - the Greek stuff we had was appalling quality and massively overpriced. Only the cool temperature was authentic. There was one house built inside the venue - eco living. Big take away from that was to buy stuff on eBay. Had I not gone in such delightful company it would have been awful. Mehr lesen

I’ve always wanted to visit so we did this year. I can honestly say it was a huge let down. It was more like a rubbish market selling tat upstairs to cheap and nasty chrome bling pictures downstairs. ...Some of the garden displays were good but not worth going just for those! We went in for opening at 10am and left at 12. We had seen it all! The first thing that greeted us on entry was cat food 🙄. Then there was dog food. Nothing wrong with either but not what I expected to see at an ideal home show. We were then pestered to donate to a charity we already donate to and then felt awful when we didn’t “sign up”.It wasn’t a comfortable or welcoming experience. We travelled from Cumbria especially to visit and I won’t be going again. Save your money if you haven’t already bought tickets. Mehr lesen
