Birkheads Secret Gardens, Coffee Shop & Nursery — Attraction in Gateshead

A lovely peaceful garden. Staff are super accommodating, and extremely pleasant.

Firstly I would like to apologise that we were there past closing time and again this is a credit to you for not chasing us out.

The gardens are arranged beautifully with some fantastic specimens that you would find in large manor house gardens.

Along with formal arrangements there are also wild and wonderful plants to keep the wild life pleased.

We had a coffee in the shop free sausage got the dog, were you can also pick up plants that have been cultivated from the gardens.

It's not huge it's more of a place to spend an hour or so in. And there are places near by to increase the walking like Hedley Hall woods.

A must go I would say if you like nature and gardens. Reasonably priced

Thanks for letting us see...

Buying a season ticket means you will be welome any time on your own or with a friend to see whats in flower( the iris are stunning) and relax in a beautiful area to have tea and cheese cake lol and...

We could spend the whole day here! There’s so many areas to wander around, with benches/seats to stop and admire!! There’s toilets at the back and a nice little cafe to stop for a coffee afterwards! The plant nursery has plenty of plants taken from...
