Have been ordering my seed tatties from Potato House for 5 years & cannot fault the range, quality & service & the ability to order early & have delayed delivery is priceless!

The best place to buy seed potatoes
I have been recommending the Potato House to all my gardening friends ever since I discovered them. Always loads of choice, interesting organic and heritage varieties, lots of helpful advice and tips, and great service. I’ve learned to order early to ensure I can get the varieties I want but with the convenience of delayed delivery it’s a doddle!

We're proud of our range and delivery service and are glad you can find what you want.
We're here for any questions all season.
Lack of Choice
I've been looking for seed potatoes since November 2024, so I could get ahead with planting out my potatoes at the right time of year. However there seems to be very little if any stock available, leaving very little if any choice on what seed potatoes to buy.
Every item seems to be unavailable for the currant year, delay due to rebag or that their coming soon. I really don't know how a company can run when there's no stock available to turn a profit. For me I'd go back to the shops, at least their more reliable. How rude this company is saying have I got the right company. YES I have got the right company. Over 2 years now and still none of the seed potatoes I look for are available. I saw the full range of stock and none of it was available when I started looking in November and nothing has changed with their availability to this day. I just don't think the company is reliable enough for the customer and to ensure that the regulars keep coming back.

Thank you for taking the time to write a review - however I am completely stumped with it! Serious question - are you reviewing the correct company?
We start to sell our seed potatoes in October each year and have over 80 varieties. If you started to look in November you would have seen the entire range.
We start to dispatch in December, and also offer a delayed delivery service so you can buy your seed potatoes in in the autumn for delivery at any point in the spring.
You can go on stock alerts for all our varieties so you will know when we start to sell in the autumn (or if we are re-bagging a variety in the spring)
We are getting around 100 orders a day at the moment and so we certainly have lots of stock. We have sold out of some of our rarer/heritage varieties and this is the usual time that we start to sell out. We grow many varieties in small quantities.
We sell a seasonal product from late autumn till late spring and we are at our busiest time now.
Notes for stock are explained on a tab on each variety and our FAQ
Coming soon - is for our potatoes to eat varieties. No seed potato has that on it at the moment.
Delay to rebag - means just that - our store are working hard to get varieties rebagged - you can go on the stock alerts for any of these varieties.
Unavailable for the current year means just that - we keep our entire range up so that customers know that varieties could be available in the following years and go on stock alerts - lots of people plan ahead. (we have around 400 people on our stock alerts for varieties that are not available this year)
We have well over 40 varieties available NOW. If you put the "in stock filter on" you will see this.
42 varieties to pick from is an incredible place to be mid season! We're sure that you will find some thing that you like - why don't you drop us a line and we can help you with varieties. Perhaps shops have more choice? Very few have that many even at the start of the season, let alone now!
https://www.potatohouse.co.uk/product-category/all-potatoes/?pr_stock=instock&all_products_filtering=1
Don't worry about the timings - this is prime time to be starting to think about your veg patch.
We're looking forward to seeing what you grow in 2025

My definition of rude is to leave a 1* review which contains false information on a public forum.
Your definition of rude is that I correct this information.
We are proud of our range which is one of the largest in the UK. We had over 80 varieties for our customers this year and they were all available in the autumn and we started to sell out of some in January.
You are conflating 2 different issues - one our range and two we don't have particular varieties that you are looking for within that selection.
What is it that you wish to grow? As stated we do not have all our range every year and so if something stated "not available for 2024-25" then obviously the stock is not going to change. Potatoes are grown, not manufactured.
We would love to supply every single variety every year but we simply do not have the space to do so.
Our regular customers are delighted with our range of 80+ seed potatoes in the autumn and the fact that we still have over 40 varieties available for you to grow right now.
You can go on stock alerts for any variety of seed potatoes and we will send you an email when they are available to purchase for 2026 (assuming that we grow it and it passes inspection)
Please feel free to continue this conversation on Facebook letting me know what variety you are looking for - I can perhaps guide to to one of our colleagues in the potato industry who may be growing the variety that you are looking for this year. As I don't know what you are looking for, I can't suggest anything.
Have a lovely weekend - sun is out. Get the spuds chitting.
Best quality organic seed potatoes
Potato House offer best quality seed potatoes and excellent service from Amy. Their Skea Organics brand sell dozens of varieties of organically certified tubers which I have been ordering for many years. This years tubers are great quality and a decent size, prices are good and the first earlies arrived already starting to chit. Excellent all round!

Caring business and great selection
I don’t normally write reviews, but I’ve used Potato House for a couple of years now and I’m very impressed. They give a lovely personal service and have been really quick to amend an order after I put the wrong delivery date in! They have a great selection of spuds - last year I tried Cara and Swift and was pleased with both (not sure what a normal yield is but we harvested 26 kg of Cara from 2 kg of seed potatoes which feels pretty good). Highly recommend!

We work with fresh produce and deliveries, so there inevitably are a few orders when things aren't quite right. We strive to make these orders perfect for our customers and really appreciate your kind words acknowledging this.
We're here for questions at any point and hope you get a great potato patch.
The Potato House offers outstanding choice, price and service.
The Potato House offers an exceptionally wide range of seed potato types, mostly organically grown. It is possible to buy in very small quantities to suit smaller gardens or people wanting to experiment with different types. Pricing is very keen as it includes delivery and relatively small bulk orders attract a worthwhile discount. Finally, it offers to deliver in the customer's chosen week. After our own experience of the great choice, pricing and service, we have arranged group bulk-orders for our allotment site for two years now and strongly recommend.

Order not received / no customer service
I ordered some potato bags to arrive asap and I’m still waiting - a month after I ordered them. I emailed to let them know I needed them asap as I was moving house. I got a reply to say my email would be looked at but not to email again as I would ‘loose my place’. I phoned but got a voicemail to say the phone wasn’t always manned so left a message. I’m now moving house in 2 days - no bags, no reponse. Now I would like a refund… what are the chances of that happening?!

Hi Lorna
There seems to be a crossed wire here and I am sorry if you are feeling ignored and that you think your email was not answered.
You ordered on 19th October and we state at check out and on your confirmation email that we will start to dispatch in December.
You emailed us on 3rd November wondering where your order was. Our auto reply states that we will reply within 2 days. I replied on 3rd November. Perhaps this has gone to junk? It certainly is in our sent items. Please check your junk settings and ask your email provider if you are not sure how to add an email to the safe list.
I stated in that email we could change the delivery to the new address.
After your email and feedback, we realised that people ordering just grow bags in the autumn may want them earlier than our December date. We always strive to improve our service and thanks to your message, I have since put a note on all the grow bag product pages to say:
"Note if buying grow bags in the autumn.
If your order just has grow bags we can dispatch immediately. Please email us if you would like us to do that. They will be dispatched in December when we start to dispatch if we don’t hear from you. If you also have seed potatoes in your order, the bags will be dispatched when you ask us to dispatch the seed potatoes."
As you have not yet asked for a refund or for the order to be sent to your new address, I have not done anything as I know how stressful moving can be. I did not send the order as I did not want it to be lost if you were moving (your email did not mention the move date, just that you were moving). There is a note on your order to check delivery address prior to sending.
The message on our voice mail states that we prefer to have everything on email and NOT to leave a message, as only one person handles the requests. This way, we are sure that we are dealing with queries in order, and are not distracted by the phone ringing when in the middle of answering another question or doing a financial transaction. We are a small company and don't have a large 24hr customer service team.
Please email amy@potatohouse.co.uk with your new address or to request a refund. Please note that we need correspondence to our email address about refunds, and I can't take the request you make above as official.
All refund requests are dealt with within 48 hours. Please note as you paid by PayPal, you have security with them and are welcome to take it further if your request is not honoured. So the chances are very high that your refund will happen.
If you reply to the order confirmation note as you did on 3rd November that would be fine.
Thank you for your order, I hope the move goes well.

Bought 5 types of seed potatoes
Bought 5 types of seed potatoes. Maris Bard, Heidi Red, Alouette, Pink Fir Apple and Blue Annelise. They all did really well. The first 3 which I planted in containers... I could have waited longer but dug them up bit too soon. Pink Fir and Blue Annelise did exceptionally well as they were in the ground. Blue Annelise: Slower than the rest which is great as we now a big haul over the festive season. Kids love the blue. Tasty and healthier!

Hi
Thank you for your order.
Our prices are well advertised on the product page and at checkout. We also give a lot of information about what is in each net on tabs on each product. If anything is unclear, it would be helpful if you could let us know (what and where) and we shall take a look. Please email your concerns to amy@potatohouse.co.uk
As you completed your order, it is assumed that you are ok with the price at the point of purchase. If you had any concerns about the price during purchase, we would have given you an explanation if you had contacted us.
I realise that you think these are expensive, however they are late season potatoes, and we have extra storage costs on these - we need to have them in cold storage all spring.
For future information - it is cheaper per tuber to buy a net of one variety. You have got the variety pack which is 3 tubers of 3 different varieties.
We have nets of 6 tubers as well as 1kg (and in the spring we also have 10kg and 25 kg sacks)
Remember, our prices include postage.
We hope that you will get a great potato patch and we are here for all questions - hopefully, next time you can ask us before something becomes a problem!
