The Weather & Your Visit - click here

The Car Park adjacent to us is a council operated pay and display car park accessed from St Marychurch Road (A379).  We'd recommend using the RingGo App (Hampton Ave. 15829) as it operates start/stop. More parking options  

TOP TIP - Allow at least 2.5  hours and take your time!   The Model Village is much bigger than most people anticipate, as everything is in miniature you will miss a lot at a fast pace. The attention to detail is amazing with lot's of 'hidden' and subtle detail, puns, humour and animated scenes at time intervals.  Take a slower pace and/or go around twice, it will greatly enhance your experience. 

What's New - check out some of the recent additions  and what's coming new - details here
