Why visit

Choosing a building is easier when you can stand in it

Ponteland Dobbies is set in its own extensive grounds with ponds and landscaped areas, with a small rolling hill at the back of the plant area featuring a beautiful picnic spot at the top with picturesque views. Located just off Ponteland Road, a few minutes from Newcastle Airport, we are just a short drive from Newcastle’s bustling city centre.

Step inside: Every building is fully built, so you can walk in, check the headroom and picture it in your garden.
Feel the quality: See the timber, glazing and fixings for yourself and compare brands side by side.
Expert advice: Our team can help with sizes, bases, planning and delivery, with no pressure to buy.
Show-site offers: Ask about offers only available on the day, and ex-display buildings for sale.

Very happy with my greenhouse, Paul from the Ponteland branch was very friendly and helped us pick the best option for our garden. We assembled the greenhouse ourselves which took about 2 days, fyi the instructions can be hard to understand but it’s worth assembling it yourself.

The greenhouse and conservatory display at Dobbie's Ponteland is fantastic and Nathan was brilliant in explaining the options and assisting us to choose our perfect greenhouse. Nathan and the office staff at The Greenhouse People were all very helpful both pre and post-delivery and we are delighted with our Evolution octagonal greenhouse, an asset to our garden. We would highly recommend this as a great place for the range of products and customer service.

Absolutely brilliant customer service with Nathan Wood, Site Manager at the Ponteland site. He's always friendly & courteous and couldn't have been more helpful. We ordered our Malvern shed yesterday and hope to have it installed as soon as possible. We'll be back for a greenhouse and possibly garden room soon. Thanks again for outstanding service and going the extra mile to ensure we are happy with our choice. Photos to follow once its installed.

I’m so glad we decided to buy our Robinson Greenhouse from the Ponteland branch of “The Greenhouse People”. The Greenhouse is perfect and looks great in Sage Green, but what stood out was the customer service from Nathan (& Paul) to ensure we got exactly what we wanted. Nathan is a true enthusiast in all things gardening and is utterly reliable and committed to giving the best customer service. Nothing is a problem, and he provided a seamless link to “Head Office”. The Greenhouse was delivered spot on time and within one day of Nathan’s original estimate. Even the gentleman that delivered the greenhouse was a true professional, insisting he carried everything with care. We had an issue with the company installing the Greenhouse (not the Greenhouse People), but even though it was out of their control, they helped resolve the issue and ensured we weren’t out of pocket. Overall, I couldn’t be happier with this company, and if you want a Greenhouse, no matter where you are in the UK, go to the Ponteland Branch and ask for Nathan ????

I recently purchased a Shugborough greenhouse from The Greenhouse People in Ponteland, and the entire process, from the initial purchase to the final installation, was absolutely effortless, efficient, and smooth. When buying the greenhouse, the team at the Ponteland branch was incredibly helpful. They didn't just try to sell me a product; they gave me excellent, practical advice to ensure I was getting the exact setup that would work best for my garden. The installation process was just as seamless as the buying stage. I want to give a massive special mention to Dave Parkin, who came to install the greenhouse. Dave was punctual & polite, he arrived exactly when promised and was a pleasure to have working in the garden. It was immediately clear that he had extensive knowledge and experience in building these structures, working with absolute precision and efficiency delivering a high-quality greenhouse that looks fantastic and feels incredibly sturdy. If you are looking to buy a greenhouse, I cannot recommend the team at Ponteland and Dave Parkin highly enough. A stress-free experience from start to finish.

We're really pleased with our experience with The Greenhouse People in Ponteland. This is our first greenhouse, something we'd wanted for a long time but knew very little about, and we chose them after reading their reviews. We weren't able to visit in person, but one phone call was all it took. Paul answered and was so helpful and kind, explaining everything and patiently working through all our questions. The whole process was smooth from that first call through to delivery, which arrived safely with everything we'd ordered. Paul even suggested people who could assemble it for us, which was a great help. We'd definitely recommend them.
