Berwick Garden Centre is the most northerly garden centre in England, attracting customers from both sides of the border. Forty years ago, we opened our doors for the first time as a small, retail plant nursery. After much growth, we have developed into a multidepartment garden centre and restaurant and are now the largest garden centre within the Berwick area.

This independent, family owned business

has gone from strength to strength, with the result that we were able to add a further two garden centres to our group – Dunbar Garden Centre in East Lothian and Plantsplus Garden Centre, near Newcastle-UponTyne. All three garden centres are situated close to the A1 main trunk road.

As a business we always strive to provide the highest quality products and offer the highest standards of customer service.

Plants

Plants are what we do best. Our very impressive plant area is full of stunning displays that change almost weekly. Stocked full of high-quality produce, we pride ourselves on having a large variety of both common and unusual plants to suit all levels of gardening abilities. If you need any advice on plant care or gardening suggestions, ask our very knowledgeable plant team – they will be happy to help!

In our ’Grow your Own’ section you can find everything you need to grow your own fruit and veg at home – we have a large selection of trees, bushes, shrubs, seeds and bulbs. As well as any larger items you may need such as raised beds and greenhouses. We also have a large selection of garden sundries and tools, where you will find everything you need to look after and manage your garden space.

If you would like something that we don’t happen to have in stock, please get in touch and we can try our best to order it in for you.

‘Huge selection of a wide variety of goods, along with a stunning variety of plants and shrubs. Very reasonably priced and fantastic staff assistance where required. Highly recommend.’

Farm Shop

We proudly sell a very wide variety of local products in our Farm Shop. Our range is so extensive you’ll be sure to be able to get everything you need for your weekly food shop in one place. Whether you are after meats or cheese, chocolates or cakes we ensure we provide the highest quality produce possible. Our talented inhouse bakers also package up their cakes and traybakes, so you can enjoy them from the comfort of your own home.

Our thriving restaurant has been serving the community for over 35 years. Whether you are after a spot of lunch or an afternoon coffee or tea and cake break, the staff will be only too pleased to assist. Using local produce where possible, our talented chefs have a large menu on offer as well as changing daily specials.

The restaurant spans two floors and offers seating for up to 200 people. Enjoy lunch on the balcony overlooking our beautiful plant area, or during the warmer weather admire our flowers whilst dining from our patio.

Our afternoon teas make a super treat for special occasions. We also offer afternoon tea gift vouchers, which can be picked up from our restaurant.

Pets & Aquatics

We are home to one of the largest pet stores within the area. We stock a large range of live animals and all of the regular care items that you will need to look after them. Aquatics, reptiles, rodents, and birds – we have the lot. You’ll also find everything you need to look after your furry friends. Stocking a large range of dog and cat food, toys to keep them engaged and treats for when they’re looking extra cute.

Our aquatics range is very impressive – we have a huge range of fish in stock, which is constantly being replenished. If there is a species we don’t stock, ask one of our team and we will try to order it in for you. If you’re just starting out or looking to upgrade your set up, we stock tanks, chemicals, and even aquatic plants.

Looking for your first pet? Our extremely knowledgeable team are happy to put together a starter kit for you, complete with everything you will need to look after your new best friend. We can also provide you with a care sheet and offer advice throughout your pet’s life.

You don’t need to own an animal to enjoy our pet department. Enhance the wildlife within your garden by purchasing bird tables and feed. We even stock bumblebee towers and hedgehog homes!

We proudly stock some very well known names within the clothing industry such as: Hoggs of Fife – a high quality brand with an excellent reputation within the field-sports and farming community. As well as Jane Austin, a ladies’ fashion retailer providing you with looks to keep you glamourous all year round.

Furniture & BBQ

When the warmer weather makes an appearance, we all want to get out there and enjoy our garden. To many this means entertaining and dining alfresco with their friends and family. We stock a range of different furniture styles at different price points, to satisfy all tastes. From 2-seater bistro tables to 6-seater outdoor dining sets, there is something to suit all. For when the nights start to get a bit chillier, we have fire pits and chimineas available.

For when you’re entertaining, a BBQ is a great addition to your outside area. Again, with different sizes and price points, there is something to suit everyone. Along side this we stock fuel, and BBQ accessories so you can pick up everything you need in one spot. You could even pick up some sausages from our Farm Shop!
