Best Landing Spots

As you'd imagine with a Fortnite point of interest, Holly Hedges is a location where the best loot is found centrally.

In fact, while each of the houses around the area offers fairly standard loot, the ideal spot to drop in is into the central Garden Centre building.

Within its walls, you'll find plenty of weapon spawns as well as a chest in the Northwest corner.

If it's a little hot to handle, though, the building to the immediate Southeast of the Garden Centre (surrounded by hedges) offers plenty of loot for players too.

 

Loot Locations

Believe it or not, there's an average of around 10 loot spawns per building. 

You can find 13 chest spawns and 64 pieces of loot on the floor, making it an ideal place to gear up.

Material wise there's plenty of wood around, as well as bricks from the buildings.

Finding Cover

The titular hedges dotted around are ideal for tucking behind, but you'll want to be careful when crossing the street in Holly Hedges.

That's because at street level you're at the mercy of any snipers that might be perched inside buildings or on rooftops.

 

Best Weapons

If you end up being one of the lucky ones that end up in said buildings, you'll want a decent long-range weapon like a sniper rifle.

If you're dropping into the Garden Centre or planning to assault a structure, be sure to grab a shotgun of some description so you can clear rooms with relative ease.

 

The Flip Side

Because Holly Hedges is tucked away on the West side of the map, you'll want to be prepared to move across to the circle if it shrinks.

Unfortunately, with no bodies of water nearby, you won't be able to rely on a boat for transportation – or a speedy getaway.
