Good models, pity you had to pay to park, enjoyed the 4d film also enjoyed the birds of prey show. At the end of the walk there was some excellent refreshment in the cafe.

We visited the Model village on recommendation from hotel owners where we were staying - The Downs Hotel - and we weren't disappointed. So very clever & how we laughed at some of the names.

The entry prices may seem a bit steep but a visit could easily occupy 2 -3 hours as there is so much to see...

Lots of miniature displays set in lovely gardens - pay the extra £1 per person for the 4D show - it is well worth it,
The title 'Model Village' usually means that I do a swift backtrack and head in the opposite direction - so I entered this attraction with very low expectations. However, I was 'blown away' by the size, scope and detail of the lay-out.
Set out on many levels, it covers everything from village streets, town centres, farms, garden centres, football stadiums,...
