Transform Your Home, Transform Your Life
Welcome to Heaton Park Garden Centre, an old-fashioned, traditional garden centre located in the historic grounds of Heaton Park in Manchester. We are dedicated to providing our customers with a unique and enjoyable shopping experience, where they can find a wide range of home-grown plants from our own nurseries.
Our garden centre is situated within the 18th-century walled garden that once supplied fruit and vegetables for the whole estate. The brick walls create a microclimate for the cultivation of crops and were used for supporting fruit and climbing plants. Today, we continue to grow our own plants on site, allowing us to pass the savings directly to our customers.
