Bekonscot Model Village |
||||||||||
|
Bekonscot is the oldest model village in the world. Portraying rural England in the 1930's, time has stood still in this wonderland of make-believe for over 70 years.
Visitors meander through
six villages, each with their miniature population going about their daily routines. There are many moving models including a fine Gauge 1 model railway which runs throughout the 1.5 acre site. There is also a sit-on railway running weekends and school holidays (small extra charge).
Bekonscot Model Village is an ideal place to hold children's parties.
The village has been featured many times on television. All surplus profits are given to charity.
Please note that we are only able to admit Assistance Dogs into the Model Village. We apologise to other dog-owners for this restriction.
