Ordered online. Delivery arrived immaculately packed and quickly. Beautiful, healthy plant and a generous size for a 7L pot, very competitively priced. I couldn't be more pleased. I would not hesitate to order again, thank you so much

M. B.

Not visited Cowells Garden Centre for some time, what a great place! Biggest selection of plants ,remembered and beautiful new and unusual ones . Everything being very well attended to by very caring staff,who were happy to tell us anything we wanted to know. Well done.

M. W.

This is my favourite garden centre. It's a family run business and you can tell, as it has lots of character. For a small garden centre it has a lot of interesting worthwhile plants at good prices. It's a visual delight for me going through their glass houses because some of their plants are so exotic and in such good condition. It's won awards and I'm not surprised as it's in a different class to garden centres that are much bigger. As well as plants it has a tasteful selection of water features and some outstanding outdoor plants. The staff obviously know what they're doing and have good caring houseplant skills as the plants are always in tip top condition. There's a full range of solid garden products as these people really know their stuff. I heartily recommend this garden centre as you're certain to enjoy yourself seeing all of it's interesting features along with it's overall beauty and charm.

J. L.

Very good garden centre, lovely staff and huge selection of ornaments, tools and plants. Highly recommend this garden centre whatever your needs!

A. A.

Nice and good quality stuff but a bit overpriced

G. J.

Well worked Covid friendly garden centre. Good staff, easy parking, plenty of reminders to keep ones spacing throughout. Plants are pricey though compared to other places but with its location...... Well worth a visit. If only they would offer more of a discount on their plants in need I would give them 5⭐.

J. C.

The only place I will go for gardening materials, tools, pots and plants. Everything is fantastic quality and those who work there are both helpful and friendly.

O. T.

One of the best garden centres in the region.

C. H.

Great selection of plants and BBQ equipment

A. H.

Never been to this Garden centre before but I must say it's by far the best I've ever visited .....every plant looks healthy and beautiful and not at all expensive...the set up is so tidy & uniform... plus the gifts & ornaments are unusual, unique & a very reasonable price.. I sat in a beautiful covered garden bench that was nearly £200 cheaper than the garden centre further along( beginning with D !!) they were identical !? . Just goes to show that larger businesses aren't always cheaper...Would highly recommend Cowells Gardwn Centre......

G. B.

I used their online ordering service,the whole process was easy to use and a follow up telephone call to confirm the delivery date. The delivery guys were also courteous and cheerful.the garden centre itself has good quality plants and other sundries as well.

J. T.

Really good quality plants with lots of choices. Nice little coffee van situated inside now instead of in carpark

D. “. B.

Wow! So big! Beautiful garden centre with a wide range of plants, flowers and shrubs. Good offers (3 for £10 that kind of thing) and well layed out. Staff are always busy but happy to help when asked.

R. P.

One of the best garden centres the staff are exalent and friendly and there stuff 👍 …

N. S.

It's great to have an independent and large garden centre around Newcastle. The plants are great quality with a huge range, staff are helpful, friendly and knowledgeable. The safety precautions in place for Covid-19 are good with clear markings and good signage.

G. G.

Searching the Internet for a particular variety of poppy I found Cowells and ordered the poppy plant at a very competitive price. Within 48 hours of ordering it had been delivered in perfect condition with buds ready to open, beautifully wrapped to protect it and potted on my patio. I’m browsing Cowells website to see what else I can order! Fantastic products and excellent customer service.

D. M.

Ordered online during lockdown 3,couldn't be happier with the communication, delivery, plants and pots. Will definitely order again. The delivery cost of £6.99 slightly put me off initially but you get what you pay for - excellent service. Thank you so much guys 🙂 …

L. R.

Ordered 10 house plants online from Cowell's. The plants were all excellent quality, carefully packed and arrived quickly. Their website was also very easy to navigate and order from. Much cheaper than a lot of online plant sites! I'll definitely be back 😊 …

R. T.

Helpful Jacob in the outdoor section of plants, did his best to help me sort out what variations of perennials I wanted and took them to the car for me too. Excellent service.

J. M.

Very impressed with quality and variety of plants. Beautiful displays with areas pairing plants. Very inspiring!

T. L.

Cowells is a true gem. A lovely place with plenty of parking. Well laid out and lots of things to look at and the real reason to go, the plants. I challenge anyone to find better quality and better priced plants anywhere. What's more they are consistent, every time we visit the quality and prices are excellent.

S. M.

Love this garden centre been going for years, Got some brilliant plants some very good indoor plants lots of daffodil bulbs tulips crocus and lots more, some beautiful Orchids and there's plenty more things to buy we think it's one of the best garden centre around brilliant x

K. B.

Very good shopping experience with lots of plants and gifts to choose from. Friendly, helpful staff too.

S. P.

Amazing selection of plants and garden bits and bobs. Staff are super friendly, knowledgable and always go the extra mile to help. I new to gardening and with their advice I am hooked.

H. G.

Fabulous, excellent knowledge staff - Lewis was a real help, thank you.

R. S.

Great garden centre with a lovely coffee van five star

G. P.

Really good variety of plant selections, but felt its slightly pricey. Was disappointed they had beautiful show case hanging baskets but there were only 3 or 4 inside the store. Otherwise, great and as said had a massive collection and social distancing was well maintained.

M. H.

Always good quality plants and expert advice

D. C.

Great indoor plant section. One of the largest in the area. Plants are beautiful and well looked after. Customer service is brilliant. I been offered help with my large Monstera, given paper to lay down in my car etc. Team was very helpful and genuinely happy to assist in any way. I will be returning in the future.

K. M.

great flower shop and prices are really decent. I go back there often

P. W.

I order many plants on line and this has been one of my best experiences. They read and understood my special instructions! The plants arrived promptly. The packaging was excellent as were the plants.

G. M.

Great variety inside and out but not inexpensive

S. D.

Great service!! Fell in in love with a friends plant that looks lovely by her front door during lockdown ( Social distanced delivery of essential goods) . Found on it on website and delivered in 2 days. Well packaged and cared for .

S. C.

I have bought several anthurium plants from Cowell's and all of them from XXL to medium to small plants are superb. They have excellent stock of various coloured anthuriums. Sam was kind enough to order some specific coloured anthurium plants for me from Netherlands. The customer service is excellent, packaging is great and I highly recommend this company for quality plants. I shall be back for more!!

J. “.

A huge range of healthy, well tended plants and young trees. Staff in constant attendance, helping customers and looking after the plants. Great indoor shop too.

E. G.

This is a great day out if you have plants that are getting bored around the house. I took my youngest piece of foliage here to explore the terrain and we had a lovely time. We took some chips to feed the carnivorous organisms but after a few tastes all the mouths closed up, maybe they only eat organic food? We shall return here for my Christmas tree’s birthday next month. Don’t tell her though... it’s a surprise 🤫🥳

P. P.

Visted cowells garden centre today for first time to buy a heritage wall planter while looking for summer bedding plants to put it while discussing what to put in with my wife. A gentleman offered me some good advice as to what to put in when i asked him if he worked there he replied nicely i own it excelent old fashioned customer service he even gave me some gardning tips a very nice knowledgeable man who goes the extra mile

J. B.

I ordered plants via mail order from here early May. They arrived quicker than I expected due to the current circumstances and they were all lovely, healthy plants. They were also excellently packaged. I would certainly order plants from here again.

D. M.

Ordered online from Chester for delivery to a relative in the North West. Excellent service. Brilliant communication and top quality plant. Thank you so much for everything. Especially the gift card which was a wonderful surprise.

L. H.

My go to garden centre for years, staff are always so helpful and knowledgable which they were again today and their selection of plants and quality is fantastic

O. N.

As a garden centre owner it is easy to see what sets Cowell's apart. The love and attention that goes into the plants, and the smiles on the faces of the team says this is Plant Lovers Heaven. Speaking with Martin and the team only confirms this as they are so keen to improve on an already great centre... and the future plans are very exciting! An excellent and highly enjoyable visit. Thank you!

C. B.

Lovely and well stocked place. No cafe, just a hot drinks van.

m. g.

The plants I buy from here are always healthy, and seem to thrive better than some I have bought elsewhere.

I. C.

Excellent non-chain local garden centre very much with the personal touch and keen to advise and help with all sorts of tips. We have spent a forune here over the last few years and never been disappointed.

D. S.

What an amazing independent garden centre. I have already recommended it to several people. We came over from Carlisle after having it recommended to us. An incredible range of plants all in excellent condition. We will definitely be going back again. If you haven't been you really need to get your self there. There's nothing to compare it to, definitely a 10 out of 10.

B. P.

Lovely garden centre. Family run Restaurant. Plenty of parking.

S. L.

There are aren't many "old-fashioned" garden centres left in the north-east with an emphasis still firmly on the selling of plants but this most definitely ticks all the boxes and many of the bedding plants here are actually homegrown (quite a rarity these days). If it's high-quality greenery you're looking for with a wide variety of plants to choose from this is most definitely the place to go, with colour-coordinated and multi-textural displays that will give you more than a few ideas when it comes to laying out your own garden. A real delight just to wander round in spring and summer with something to suit all budgets if you don't mind buying plants that will take a year or two to reach their full potential. Very highly recommended.

K. B.

I've always enjoyed my visits to Cowell's. The plants are good quality and well cared for while at the store. The staff are helpful and pleasant with good advice about which plants are best I'm looking forward to the store reopening on saturday.

K. L.

I've been buying plants from here for over 20 odd years, I've never been disappointed, I've probably spent thousands over the years, the quality of the plants are always premium and I've had more than my fare share of reduced bargains too that have flourished once planted. The service from the staff has always been helpful, they given me good advice and tips over the years. Maybe the reviewer whose hanging baskets died didn't water them enough. If a plant I've bought doesn't flourish enough I move it and always with success. This is mine and my parents favourite garden centre. I've recently moved house and started a new garden by far the majority of my plants will be bought here, I love the place. From a very happy gardener, Karen Lowden.

T. C.

Checked on there website before i travelled and i have to say the most amazing selection of plants,Great quality Covid Safe and will not be my last visit...Lots of car parking spaces too

X.

Nice friendly store. Excellent selection of plants,shrubs and garden features. Very good prices. Wheelchair friendly all on one level. Public toilets and free carpark. Doesn't have food apart from vending machine. However there is a local Tea room. Close to airport. A1 and local pubs

e. s.

I have been a regular Cowells customer since they first opened. I buy all my plants from them as they are consistently reliable and seem to be suited to our local soil. Yesterday, for the first time ever, I spoke to one of their staff because I had lost a small Acer tree over this past winter. Without hesitation my tree was replaced. I was treated with such courtesy and patience that my already high opinion of Cowells went up another notch. Thank you Cowells.

C. C.

Large garden centre, with a great range of plants and pots, plus a lovely range of Christmas decorations. It's an independent garden centre so nice to support local businesses, bigger and better than Dobbies too!

S. S.

My favourite garden centre. Always has a great selection of indoor and outdoor plants.

S. Q. (. Q.

Cowell's is a gardeners garden centre. Very good quality plants, knowledgeable, helpful staff. No rip off prices here. Just quality and plants you know have been looked after. There are some of the usual garden centre type gifts, books, cards etc, but no coffee shop with loads of screaming kids which is always welcome.

G. H.

I love this place, it my favourite local houseplant supplier and the staff know their stuff! The lady in the houseplant area was very helpful and they have a wonderful selection of rare and unique plants. As a person who has 30+ houseplants, I still find lovely new plants here!

Y. D.

Excellent speed of delivery; quality of plants; and packaging. Will definitely be buying from again.

C. W.

Great selection of plants and usually good advice. Everyone was doing their best to keep customers safe and still provide a good service. One way system in the plant area was a bit confusing though.

M. S.

Good selection of plants, veg and garden accessories. One way system has been installed around the in door areas to ensure social distancing. Outdoor areas are extensive and well stocked

R. G.

I enjoy a bit of gardening, but I'm not very knowledgeable. At Cowells when I ask questions about the plants, acidic soil, pests etc etc. There is always a good answer, full of useful advice, and I feel I have learned something. I have had blank looks at other places. Also, you don't get drooping and wilting with Cowells stuff when you get it home. I think that indicates that their stock is well kept. Thumbs (green ones!) up for Cowells. In my humble opinion they are the best in the area. Not always the cheapest, but the best.

M. A.

Fantastic garden centre. The choice of plants is huge! Great independent centre. I’d not go anywhere else now. Good selection of pots & planters. Also plenty of ideas for your garden in the indoor shop. Loads & loads of things to look at.

K. M.

Popped in to Cowells Carden centre, as I was told it was good. They had a great selection of out door and indoor plants compared to other centres during COVID period. I have not given them 5 stars as it is pricey.

M. T.

Just been to cowells garden centre, first time since last year and I have to say they are the best in the region for stock, layout and variety. Very helpful staff. Well see they are a family run firm Excellent

A. H.

The best garden centre I've ever visited.

J. T.

This is what a garden centre should look like. You are surrounded by rows and rows of healthy plants and staff who are proud of their work. We'll done!

A. L.

new place for us; nice selection and quality; not the cheapest though. Took an hour to select what we wanted and didnt have a card to pay with - they dont have contactless so had to leave the plants there!

C.

Fabulous garden centre. The two plants I received were top notch. You can tell they have been well cared for. Delivery was quick & plants were well packed & fresh too. Very pleased. I would not hesitate to buy from Cowell's again. Thank you!

N. H.

Good healthy plants cost little bit more but they survive so wife happy to pay

J. B.

All staff are very helpful and knowledgeable.

S. B.

Really nice garden centre.

J. C.

We love going to Cowells, their plants are excellent quality with a wide range. I could quite easily spend a fortune on loads of plants. The staff are lovely and helpful

J. B.

Excellent garden centre, Hugh range of plants and all the plants are very healthy, is a little bit more expensive than other garden centre but I think they are quality sound and with the extra couple of pounds. Staff are very knowledgeable so don't be afraid to ask.

L. “.

Ignoring the woman at the entrance being short with me for bringing in a coffee Because of Covid, (makes sense). Apparently there is a sign... i looked, its out of the way and behind a plant, oh and the coffee machine in the store is still on, but whatever. Besides that i love this place. Staff are verry helpfull and extremely knowledgeable.

T. D.

Goodness me... Cowell's, Cowell's, Cowell's. You are heaven on earth, and happen to be one of the only places in the dreary island we live on that gets me genuinely excited. Best plants, best choices and best day out ever.

S. L.

Visited Cowells to purchase some mature shrubs. Whilst I believe Cowells to be quite expensive the quality of plants and expertise of staff more than justifies the prices charged. We received really good advice from Dillon on the shrubs we were looking to purchase and delivery arranged promptly. A really satisfactory experience

p. r.

Best Garden Centre around, plants are of good quality, good choice. Just love the place.

r. w.

Best in the northeast imo . Plant quality outstanding

K. S.

Fantastic local family run garden centre. Reasonable prices. Massive range of plants and other products. Lovely little coffee shop on site. Friendly staff and service. Highly recommend you give this place a try over other chain garden centres.

B. P.

Cowells is a great family owned garden centre and is very popular due to its personal service, if needed. Due to corona virus they have Tolley and hand sanitizers at the entrance and a one way system in place. We bought three perennials for £15.00 and a lupin at half price. We have been going there for years and would highly recommend them.

L. D.

I love Cowells. They take great care of their plants. Staff are helpful and ready to offer advice and guidance. Large range of plants and also some tools, gifts, garden furniture and accessories, and pond plants too. And bird food. Good car park but no cafe, although there is a machine availsble for hot drinks.

P. S.

Not too busy & plenty of winter flowers left. Not too much in the way of artificial Christmas trees left but plenty of real ones. Pleasantly surprised by the addition of a coffee van outside.

T. “. G.

Very well organised, knowledgeable staff and excellent quality of plants. Alot of good quality plants in display. Queues at checkout which is expected during the lockdown and social distancing requirements.

M. S.

Love this place. Very helpful staff. The Christmas stock is like Santa's Grotto. Even at this time of year there are plenty of plants to choose from

J. F.

Lovely plants for garden, patio and house. A great range of planters and pots, it's well worth visiting for all your gardening requirements.

A. T.

Great range of plants and highly knowledgeable staff members. Was assisted by Dylan who sorted all our problems in getting a perfect tree. Thank you

C. C.

I am always happy with the quality of Cowell’s plants and on line service. I have no hesitation in recommending. Five stars.

y. s.

I am very satisfied with my order from online, plants were delivered as perfect condition. Thank you so much I hope I could visit the garden someday for sure :-)

E. P.

Once again a very successful visit to this garden centre, friendly and helpful staff from Elizabeth who helped us choose plants to Mark who potted them for us and the staff on checkouts. Also thank you to the lady who got the the two vases off the shelve for us

H. T.

Ordered a plant for a friend and it arrived the next day! Beautiful healthy plant packed so carefully. Can’t give enough praise. I have ordered from several of the ‘big’ companies and never had such a first class experience. Thank you.

c. t.

Fabulous! Not the cheapest but the best, unusual plants all well grown and helpful and knowledgeable staff. Bonus of an artisan coffee stall outside. Win-Win xxx

D. W.

Good quality plants and a great selection, staff very helpful

J. S.

Best plants I have received online. Top quality and carefully packed. Staff are superhelpful - they call you about substitutions. Best online service I have experienced.

S. A.

How a garden centre should be ....perfect.

D. L. B.

I got a damaged plant and they replaced immediately. Nice company to buy from . Will definitely use again

J. F.

Love Powell's Garden Centre. Prices are reasonable. Beautiful Hybrid Tea Roses I've got my eye on. Eraceaous soil is CHEAPER than DOBBIES which is just along past Newcastle Airport. It's a no-brainer. I'd shop at Cowell's Garden Centre because it's MORE like what a Garden Centre should be and beautifully set out. 5 stars 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 …

R. C.

Very good garden centre, everything you want.very friendly,and helpful staff.

J. D.

As usual Cowells is absolutely excellent. If you want plants, that's the place to go to. The range of 'accessories' is quite eclectic.

I. I.

Well laid out garden centre. Plants look very healthy. Friendly helpful staff. No coffee shop.

D. C.

By far the best garden centre. Been going there for 41 years! Great plants and great staff.

A. R.

A very neat & tidy place with good selection of the most beautiful border plants, shurbs & trees. The staff are kind, helpful & patient with their advice. Well worth a visit.

C. O.

Very knowledgable and friendly staff. Great selection of plants - fsr better than the "boutique" type garden centres.

K. M.

Really friendly staff. Nothing seemed too much bother when asking for help with product knowledge. Has a nice family feel to it, either that or I am feeling christmasy at the time of visiting!

S. S.

Well stocked and great selection of plants. Been going to this garden centre for years. Always like the gift selection. A must see at Christmas for the Christmas decorations.

P. M.

Great independent garden centre, well worth a visit. Plants looked to be top quality, and displays are really well laid out. Plenty of free parking, dog friendly.

B. M.

An excellent garden centre with a large variety of quality plants, plus all usual extras (gift cards, conserves, biscuits etc). Also good for bird food, bird tables and feeders.

Z. M.

Best Garden Centre I've been to, terrific choice of plants. Staff friendly. Will definitely be back.

J. W.

Knowledgeable, informed, expert staff helped us greatly, definitely one little gem of a center.

S. H.

I was recommended Cowell's by a friend and we were totally impressed, all the staff were amazing, friendly, knowledgeable and particularly Stefan gave us great advice on trees, Janie was very friendly while we were buying a bistro set but there is always one grey haired mature lady who was very dismissive of keeping trees in pots, after speaking with her we nearly walked out, but my husband said let's try someone else that's when we met Stefan and spent another £300 on trees our total spend was £775 thoroughly enjoyed our visit and we'll be back

a. i.

Fabulous experience. So use to garden centres but this one, somehow, blew my mind. I felt as tho I'd been transported into a tropical forest in the tree section. I wanted everything. So hard to decide as everything looked super healthy n super large. I'm definately going back once builders have finished, to get my trees. Loved it.

T. R.

Fantastic place with very friendly knowledgeable staff. Would definitely recommend a visit. We will be heading back in the spring 🎍 …

J. F.

Great choice of plants in good quality.

X. H.

My favourite garden centre in the Uk. It has a variety of plants.

K. H.

Great choice of plants & garden accessories. Only suggestion is they could do with a cafe which would attract alot more customers.

c. F.

Not the best customer service here. Staff on till who served us on Saturday 15th May 2021 @ 11am in the morning was very rude and told not to touch the goods in our trolley until she had scan them and stand back behind the line whilst she did it. 3/10 related only on that alone.

m. n.

Ordered via webshop last week. Got plants within the week. Extremely helpful staff when I rang several times with queries. Lovely plants

P. G.

We have to be careful here not too spend too much, best plants hands down. Most of the indoor plants we buy last months more than anywhere else. Don't bother with dobbies this place is much better value and quality

J. H.

I can’t recall visiting a healthier looking garden centre

B. M.

Great. Sells all kind of plants. Cacti, fruit trees, seeds (vegetables). Definitely a must visit if you're looking to plant your own things at home.

J. B.

I'm sure it's a good garden centre, but I was surprised to see they charge twice as much for their fruit trees as Dobbies do!

A. F.

Lots of Christmas decorations and plants/xmas trees. Busy, but plenty of parking. A complicated one-way system in place around one area , which made it difficult to shop and double back, as you often have to when xmas shopping. At least they also take cash as well as cards!.

W. H.

Plants are always good, but today I need a few cards to post and did not want to go to a large supermarket. It was quiet and safe

c.

Family run garden centre. Concentrates on plants and gardening items with a smaller range of other bits. Well established with a good range of gardening products at a fair price.

j. m.

Very nice here plenty of choice and quite good prices bought some plants for around my new pond project ongoing

J. W.

This is one of the best Garden Centres I've ever been to. Quality plants and good advice. Has not become just another retail / food experience.

L. G.

Bought a tree last week and it had already started to die! Called them up to query it and within 2 hours had a new one delivered, they also set it up and took the old one away! Amazing customer service

P. M.

Excellent garden centre. Superb selection of plants, well laid out, properly looked after and reasonable price. Highly recommended.

O. F.

Fantastic plants and a lovely choice. Good quality. Staff helpful. A proper garden center. Hanging baskets outstanding

C. S.

One of the best garden centres I know. Always have very good plants & knowledgeable staff.

S. H.

Once you've been to Cowells no other garden centre will suffice in my opinion. They have a much wider selection than most and really look after the plants so they last a long time

T. H.

Great place for a visit not to many people..car park small ..visit Early are late for best visit plenty of plants and staff very helpful. They know there stuff.

S. B.

Went for the first time today, best range of plants in Newcastle area by a long way. Instantly my wife's favourite

C. G.

Amazing Garden centre with plants for everyone, indoor & outdoor plants. It's difficult to buy just one plant, well at least for me as I'm an addicted 😅 …

A. R.

Ordered on saturday recived on Tuesday morning, Ordered a tomato plant and didn't have what i ordered so they sent me a choice of plants to pick from as I missed a call from them the previous day to inform me that the one I wanted was not available Delivery drivers let me take both plants and said they would add it to my account they were perfect ambassadors for there company will use this company again

s. f.

Unbelievable plant quality and one of the most extensive ranges you’ll find - to see this in October is incredible. Amazing place, must have a very special Plant Manager

K. T.

Very nice garden centre, laid out very well and has a good variety of plants and other gifts.

C. M.

The best garden centre in the area by a mile. Superb customer service especially from managers! Not the cheapest but you do get what you pay for and will actually save money in the long run.

V. l. D.

Wouldn't go anywhere else for my plants. Such great care is taken in Cowells to give the best quality. As soon as you walk in you feel inspired and relaxed as you walk around. Cowells is a little piece of tranquillity in a busy world.

T. C.

Excellent range of plants..pricey compared to Debbie's,Plants for us...but very good visit

D. I.

Best Garden centre in the nort East.

J. H.

One of the best places I've been to so far for houseplants. A very large selection with quite a few unusual varieties.

Not a serious gardener but never seen such an extraordinarily wide range of plants, amazing!

S. M.

Great stuff, very kind and attentive staff, will certainly be back again to this wonderful garden center.

Love this garden centre the plants are fabulous. Staff are very friendly and helpful. In the summer the plants attract bees and all different types of butterflys.

P. H.

It's a fantastic garden centre very colourful a little more expensive than the likes of Homebase but worth every bit the staff are very friendly and extremely helpful and actually know what they're talking about the ornaments for garden are unique

T. J.

Nice cosy garden centre, quite expensive but I think all garden centres are pricey. Such a shame there is not a coffee shop or restaurant on site, however there is a coffee machine in a corner of the shop. Staff seemed pleasant

d. s.

Amazing garden centre,loads of variety and house plants. Lovely coffee van outside, always a must, especially as they have oat milk.

J. H.

Brilliant place, they have everything and the staff are so helpful. If anything to be wrong the price of their pots expensive

a. k.

Hugeee collection of plants!!! Very good quality plants.

Best Garden Centre in the area. Top quality plants, with guarantees. I like how their displays are colour-defined so, if you want a purple flowered plant, Cowells show them together with complementary shades of purple. Never seen that before - such a good idea! Their reduced price stands have many bargains to bring back to life. Absolutely recommended (just wish they had a cafe).

S. S.

THE place to go . Visited for many a year , always an excellent selection of everything a gardener needs. All stock in excellent condition ( nothing dying from lack of water like some places ) and free expert advice all part of the service . You may find cheaper but imo you get what you pay for . 🌱 …

E. V.

Best garden centre in the area. It might not have aquariums and fish ponds like Dobbies further up the road, but it has huge selection of fabulous healthiest strongest plants and great row of garden structures and various sculptures.

D. R.

The best garden centre around here. It concentrates on plants, shrubs and trees. There is nowhere to buy second-rate books, soap and shower gel. The staff are superb: knowledgeable, very pleasant and professional. Overall, a gem littered with other 'also rans'.

A. R.

Bestest place for plants always great but you are paying a premium.

R. H.

Probably one of the best garden centres in the UK. A large range of beautifully merchandised products at competitive prices supported by highly knowledgeable, helpful & approachable staff. The product range covers both garden & home needs & there's a little café for a rest before, during or after your visit.

j. k.

Great plants, service and fast delivery. Good packaging too.

J. S.

Good value Xmas trees, very helpful staff and dog friendly to boot!

S. H.

Great local garden centre with friendly staff and immaculate products presentation - fab coffee on site too!

B.

These guys offer such a huge range of houseplants. I've also seen some rare ones on here as well. I ended up buying a Pilea 'White Splash' (they seem to be the only one in the UK who seems to stock this) at decent enough price for a rare plant (£20). I was shocked when I opened the box. IT IS HUUUUGEEE!! There are at least six pups growing as well! I'm so amazed!! I even emailed in to ask when they were going to restock their Begonia Rex's as they were out of stock due to reopening of the store. Their initial response explained that they didn't know when they were going to get them in next. A few days later I got a surprise email saying that they had a delivery and were going to put them on the website that evening. I bought the plants that evening. Again, these plants are hard to find and they sell them at such a good price. I got an email the next morning saying my order has been dispatched and I've received the box all in all a total of two days from ordering to receiving. They have such a quick service, I can't recommend enough. 100% I will be buying from these guys again. Thank you so much!

B. L.

I just wanted to thank Cowell's for such a brilliant service, fast delivery and superb plants. I've never had plants so well packed and in such great condition. I will certainly be purchasing from them again in the future. Faultless service, highly recommend.

l.

Shopped online for some geums and they arrived really quickly. The plants had been very carefully packaged and were in great shape and a good, healthy size. I'm very pleased with them.

D. C.

Lovely well kept garden centre. Slightly expensive for simple planters but overall quality plants. Well thought out a-z of plants

L. J.

Best Garden centre in North east for rare and more usual houseplants. Nice coffee cart too.

p. w.

Great service ordered Sunday delivered Tuesday, great communication, plants packed well & received in good condition. Have already recommended the company to a friend. Couldn't wish for better service well done, especially to Jacob.

C. K.

Everything from gardening to fashion to furniture sold. Prices not bad. Decent restaurant. Decent menu.

J. C.

Best Garden Centre I've ever visited! Amazing selection of outdoor and indoor plants, well laid out, anything you'd need! Staff are also so kind and willing to help, I was served by Victoria and she was very understanding and had more than enough time for me even with a large queue! Helping me with my compost choice and when my gift card wasn't working. Customer service was outstanding. Definitely will recommend this garden centre to anyone and so worth a little extra time on a journey

A. O.

Been coming to Cowell’s for 10 years plus and a huge fan! But wanted to make a point of thanking the young man who helped me today with my selection of plants for a new west facing bed created in my garden. Very patient throughout, he made the whole design process simple and effective and the recommended grasses and Sorbus tree look absolutely amazing now they’ve been planted out! Couldn’t have done it without him!! So sorry I didn’t get his name - but a true asset to the team!! Thanks again!!

c. 1.

I ordered online a monkey puzzle tree, and went and picked it up today. The staff were very friendly and helpful. My tree is brilliant. A perfect specimen. Thank you

D. S.

Lovely garden centre, had hot chocolate at the coffee van. Best hot chocolate I have ever had.

D. B.

Lovely garden centre with everything you could want including polite and helpful staff.

F. F.

I shopped online from the website and I have to say I will definitely shop with them again. The plants arrived in perfect condition in 2 days. Really well packaged and obviously well cared for plants.

M. P.

We think that this is the best looked after garden centre we've been to. We will definitely be back

P. G.

Not cheap by any means..but good plant collection ...lots to keep a keen gardener happy! My only gripe is that sometimes the perennials are in big pots only..ie expensive and the ones in smaller pots don't have a great root system. Good selection of vegetable plants herbs and annuals. No cafe.

A. T.

The best garden centre in the Newcastle area. Their emphasis is on plants,all year round

L.

What an amazing garden centre! Such a variety of plants, all of them were super healthy and worth what you pay for them. All of the container-grown plants even come with a 2-year guarantee (unheard of?!). The staff were so polite, professional and well turned-out. Great place and I don’t think I’ll bother going anywhere else for garden plants.

M. G.

Excellent place - super for hellebores and frost-proof ceramic pots.

E. P.

Very good, excellent healthy plants and friendly staff.

M. B.

Hi so I got this and there are tiny worms in it before I've even put it in a pot? Is this just from the worm castings or is it a pest? The worm was small and thin and I couldn't tell the colour because it was in the dirt but I don't think it was white. It was about 2 cm long. If anyone knows what this is and if it's harmful please let me know!!!

M. A. H.

Large and well stocked, lots of variety and large rose selection as well as hanging baskets.

H. P.

If you have never visited, you are really missing something. If you love your garden and planting, there is no place better. Great range and quality, lots of experienced staff always available with the best help and advice. There may not have a cafe, but I don't go to coasta to buy plants! (Spelling error on purpose)

E. W.

Good range, a cut above most other local garden centres

D. P.

Well kept plants and variation extremely good. Visit very often. Staff very well informed.

K. P.

It's a nice garden centre but a can be pricey on plants and other things

R. C.

This is the best service I have had from ordering plants online. Very fast delivery well packaged,plants in excellent condition. This company will be my first choice when I next order plants Highly recommended

K. W.

Excellent selection of plants to purchase as well as a gift shop area.

S. F.

I bought two varigated Skimmias from Cowells months ago,for in planters near my front door.They are the best quality shrubs Ive bought online,are now full of flower buds and being variegated just look gorgeous. Highly recommend Cowells.

G. M.

Big shop with variety of plants. Highly recommend for all you garden enthusiasts. It is cheap and they sell large trees as well as small plants + garden furniture. Love the shop.

J. B.

Beautifully-packaged item. Couldn't find it in my local area so ordered online via a random google search. Arrived promptly and safely because of its careful packaging. Lovely healthy plant. Thank you.

B. B.

I purchased a Hydrangea Arborescens 'Incrediball' online. I had an email very shorty after, thanking me for my purchase and later that day saying my item had been dispatched. I recieved my plant the very next day (was also give a time frame for delivery) It was superbly packaged and on unpacking it, found a very health specimen! I would not hesitate to recommend Cowell's service and quality, will be certain to use them again. Thank you!

S. L.

I got great service from the information shed situated in the middle of the garden centre. I bought gravel, compost, a mature honeysuckle and a pot. Helpful and knowledgeable staff, and you can get it right to your car. It's not the cheapest in the world but not the most expensive either, and the choice and service are worth every penny.

T. H.

Lots of different plants. The staff were very helpful.

E. P.

Lovely place. Flowers etc are always in excellent condition.

C. A.

Excellent garden centre! After visiting a number of garden centres in the North West and North East this wonderful place outshines them all. A very wide range of plants despite the current difficulties with Covid etc but also the very friendly and the most knowledgeable staff who are willing to spend time to discuss options that work for the customer. I will be visiting again many times in the future. This is everything a good garden centre should be and would not waste my time anywhere else.

L. T.

Exceptional plants with lovely helpful staff

b.

Not cheap, but a nice location with plenty of parking and a great range of plants. Staff friendly & helpful.

A. S.

Probably one of the best garden centres we go to, very well stocked and so many varieties to choose from. Staff are very knowledgeable always ready to help

L. C.

Dropped by Cowell’s on a Wed afternoon as we were holidaying in Northumberland. Amazing selection of indoor and outdoor plants, even succulents, at great quality and reasonable prices. Compared to other garden centres, the plants area are kept very clean, staff is helpful and polite. It’s not too busy when we were there which is nice as we could walk around not having to avoid too many people! I could easily spend the whole day here and it’s so hard to decide which plants to get. My most favourite garden centre!

K. M.

So much variety and plants very well looked after, staff super prepared friendly and helpful, every corner is spotless! I didn't get the chance to see it all yet as its really massive and all worth it

S.

Unfortunately I live in Manchester so haven’t had the chance to visit the garden centre buttt I love browsing their website and have placed several orders with them! Customer service is spot on and are always ready to resolve any issues. Highly recommend for online plant shopping 10/10 service.

g. J.

Love this garden centre. So much choice I always spend more than I intend to!! Very helpful and pleasant staff.

W. S.

Great selection of plants, very reasonable prices. Best arranged Garden centre in the North East.

S. J.

It is the only place I buy plants from . Staff have a wide knowledge and are always available to answer questions . The whole site is well arranged and clean.the plants are always healthy and cared for

J. F.

Love cowells the plants are well established and lots of bargains staff are lovely

S. D.

Brilliant garden centre. Huge variety of indoor and outdoor plants plus everything else you'd need for the garden. Everything I have bought has done really well in the garden

l.

First time I have been after a friend reccomened it. I have been using other local garden centres, but after this Cowell's will be #1 preference. Fabulous choice of plants and products and some great deals. I bought some bamboo canes at a snip of what I paid recently at a competitors. Staff were so helpful and friendly.

B. T.

Great quality plants, and very polite people

S. D.

A wonderful place! The plants are absolutely stunning and so well displayed it is an absolute pleasure walking round and choosing something suitable for your own personal preference.

R. H.

Massive selection online of indoor and outdoor plants, great prices, brill customer service and super fast, DHL delivery. highly recommend, stunning plants and pots, over the moon with what I received today - the packaging was awesome, not a single grain of soil to be found anywhere. I only wish there were multibuy / large order discounts or deals for customers but still, delighted with my first order. Cheers.

G. W.

This garden centre is one of the best in the country. Well staffed with plenty of good healthy plants for bedding, baskets or anything else. Prices are not cheap but the quality is good. Anything you could want for the garden you can get at Cowells.

S. A.

Can always find what I want (and more!) when I visit here. Trouble us I always end up spending a lot more! Just wish they had a cafe and a loyalty card!!!! Toilets were closed when we visited, which was a bit awkward. Edit: Second visit in 4 days! As always we managed to get the plants we wanted but we were very unhappy with the woman who was serving us on the till at 2.30pm. My friend and I were chatting with (to) her - just saying that we loved the garden centre but wished they had an on-site cafe but the staff member with cropped grey hair just glowered at us as if we had come in on the bottom of someone's shoe and said "go next door!"! Definitely needs an injection of smiles and customer service training! What a grump!!!! After personally spending £100-plus I may well go elsewhere in future...

I. J. C.

Best place in the area for buying healthy plants. No coffee shop but there is a machine available if a caffeine fix is a must!

p. w.

My first visit. Lots of variety of plants, very healthy too. Lots of helpful beautiful ideas on display. So many Pots too. Decent prices. The yoing lad on the till was just lovely So helpful. Well worth a visit..

P. D.

Overall rather disappointed. Cowell's is normally a very good garden centre with good quality plants that are reasonably priced. However on this visit it was very, very busy. However, to be fair the long till queues were socially distanced and well marshallled. I was disappointed that the plants that we had identified online as being in stock were not available when we arrived a couple of hours later. We were also disappointed by the off hand attitude of some staff when we asked where the plants we wanted were located.

I. G.

The extra mile and more is the way to describe this superb garden centre. called in yesterday about some furniture. The help and advice from Clare was exceptional and way beyond anything we have ever seen anywhere. Many thanks to Clare and all the staff. There really is no need to go anywhere else once you've found this place.

D. 1.

The perfect garden centre. Plant choice and quality are excellent. Staff are very helpful and knowledgeable. Always walk away with lots of new ideas and wishing I had a bigger garden !

M. F.

A wonderful garden centre. A huge variety of all plants, flowers, trees etc. Upon first inspection it's easy to lose track of what is available. Thankfully there is enough staff there to giving a helping hand and advise. The parking lot is not too big (compared to other places). Will certainly go again.

C. S.

In my opinion one of the best garden centres in the North East. Had help and advice from a lovely gentlemen called Jack W who advised us on some plants and compost. The customer service is always very good and Jack certainly went above and beyond to help.

R. D.
