Charlies Stores

I knew the eponymous Charlie from the times that he sold army surplus to bargain hunters until he passed away. His successors have created a modern retail operation that rivals the department stores of the past, with massive choice under one roof. Well done Chris!

Came into the store for a few items with my wife and we were met by a lady called Carol. She told us it was here first day working in store but she would do her best to help us find what we were looking for. I have to say Carol was an absolute delight to chat with, really going that extra mile to help us out. I must say she is a real credit and an asset to the high standards that seem to be the standard of Charlie’s stores.
Thanks Carol for all your help

A portmanteau imperium with plenty of everything for everyone. Warm, outdoor and working clothing galore. Christmas lights, trees and decorations. Loads and loads more stuff! Go ahead and have a look for yourself!

The Store I did not know existed in Newtown only came about via the Charlie's in town the one in town def more geared towards for the women the industrial estate definitely manly 😂😉 oh you had me at 50mm spanners & stainless Steel spades what a way to a man's heart 🤣 Definitely be back

Great store for good prices and a great selection of goods

Great for picking up some gardening and DIY projects!

We use this store regularly for many different products, good service, and a great selection.

Bought a Stihl Chainsaw last year from them, had a problem with the chain and tensioning wheel. Took it back today and had brilliant service from Tom who identified the problems and quickly put it right. Brilliant customer service

Great store, always get what I want, and always find things I didn't go for.

I love Charlie's in Newtown. Ideal for all my gardening and housekeeping stuff. What's more nothing is too much trouble for the staff. Strongly recommend

Very helpful. I have bought so many items from this store. Including expensive power tools and lawn mowers. When I come in for my elderly lady friend to buy something as small as in incinerator, they are just as kind and helpful. They have everything and have the knowledge too!

Nice stores ....as you'd expect ..it's has everything you're ever going to need and then some ....staff are pleased to help ...a good experience 😉

Charlie's is a good place to buy paint/garden items etc. I never knew it was here till Tuesday will call in again. Great for DIY products.

Great store for all gardening/DIY/work wear and tools. Very pleasant and helpful staff. Reserved some gardening items by phone for collection later that week. They couldn't have been more helpful. Great prices too. We live in the Midlands but always visit both Charlie's Stores in Newtown when visiting our daughter. Wish there was a store nearer to our home 😊. Thanks to all staff.

Good selection of goods store arranged well helpful and polite staff.

A one stop shop for almost everything! Hardware, gardening, pet's, agricultural equipment and equestrian. Charlie's has never failed to supply anything that I have gone looking for.
Staff are always polite, friendly and knowledgeable.

years ago when i went there (I don't live anywhere close) I was seriously impressed by the tools. The stock variety was excellent and the carpentry tools were cheapish but none of it was tat that would only last 5 minutes - so 10 out of 10 to the buyer for not filling the shelves with the cheapest rubbish not fit for purpose..

Charlies has served the local area with a massive range of products, for many years. Good range of DIY and garden tools. Expect to end up buying more than you intended to! 😅

Always helpful, we wanted two pairs of Wellington boots but only one of the sizes we wanted were on the shelf but luckily the kind lady went to check in the back and came out with the size we wanted, so two happy customers, thank you

OK, so the Market Street shop is more fun, but Charlie's is still Charlie's, even when it is well laid out and clearly aimed at the more serious gardener, or less serious smallholder. Best place for wellies. Best place for waterproofs. Best place for Christmas decorations. Good range of power tools, and helpful staff.
