Welcome to Whilton Locks Garden Village

We are an award winning family run, independent Garden Centre nestled on the Warwickshire – Northamptonshire border just off the A5, close to Daventry.


Whilton Locks Garden Centre
About Us:

We have been open since 2004 and the site is vibrant and full of interesting products. As we are independent we are able to choose our own stock, which means that we have one-off pieces, and some more unusual items, whilst still catering for all your gardening needs.

At Whilton Locks Garden Village you will find a well stocked garden centre, Brunos Pet Store and our mouth-watering, recently extended, Canalside Restaurant – it’s the perfect place to visit, whatever the weather!

We have a friendly and experienced team who are more than happy to help you with whatever your gardening or pets needs may be.

We know that great customer service, good prices and to stock what you’re looking for is what everyone expects of a great local garden centre. Recently Whilton Locks was voted The Best Garden Centre in Northamptonshire!

We are pet and wheelchair friendly throughout the site too.
Current Opening Times: Monday to Saturday 9am – 6pm, Sunday 10:30am – 4:30pm

SAVE THE DATE…
6th to 8th March. It’s our Birthday and yes, there will be cake.

Harry Potter and the Afternoon Tea.

Harry, Ron and Hermoine were sitting having lunch at Hogwarts.
“Have you heard about the Afternoon Tea at Whilton Locks?” said Harry.
“I have,” said Ron “It’s Saturday 28th February.”

“It’s the last day of February” said Hermione “No leap year this year.”
“I guess no jumping about then?” Laughed Ron.
“Well you can hop over to Whilton.” Harry beamed.

“Boys!” Hermione was getting frustrated, “Tell them about the Afternoon Tea at Whilton Locks.”
“Which bit?” said Harry “The menu sounds amazing: Hippogriff Cold Cuts, Philosopher’s Scones, Chocolate Frogs”
“And how do you get in?” Hermione glared at Harry and Ron.
“I dunno, knock on the Dumbledore and Slither in?” Chuckled Ron.

Hermoine glared at Ron again. “Harry do you know the website address to find out more and to book?!”
“Of course,” Harry smiled “It will be www.whiltonlocksgardenvillage.com/product/harry-potter-afternoon-tea-2026/ - tickets are very limited though.”
“Finally. Thank you.” Hermione scowled.
“Slither in?” Harry grinned. “There is something Ron with you”
“You can’t be sirius!” chirped Ron.
“I am,” Said Harry “I might even Potter over myself.”

Hermione picked up her Time-Turner and decided it was her chance to leave.

Not sure what went wrong, who is who or what the dickens happened to Daddy Pig, who on earth is Captain Monkey Pirate (it was supposed to be Captain Pugwash) or Old Fashioned Train Driver Figure with Weird Cravat and Yellow Shoes (which was prompted as Dangermouse!)
