One of Buckinghamshires top tourist attractions, Bekonscot Model Village and Railway is one of these great days out you remember for years to come. Something to interest all ages with covered picnic seating area, shop and cafe as well as childrens' play area, ride on railway, model boats and the lovely Model Village itself now in its 85th year! Well worth a visit and good to hire their log cabin for Children's Birthday Parties too! School and Coach Groups welcome - please book in advance for special group rates.
A visit to to this historic collection of toys and trains from Sussex and beyond is a perfect way to revive your childhood memories, and/or introduce school children to the delights of play. You will find model trains, teddy bears and special exhibitions galore at Brighton Toy and Model museum..
This museum, it's really amazing. There are lots of beautiful models. The people who work there are always kind and they're always ready to help. With the music and the models, you feel the atmosphere of the past. It's a unique experience!

St. Barbe Museum & Art Gallery can be found just off the High Street in the beautiful Georgian town of Lymington. The Museum is a family friendly museum, with collections and displays that tell the story of the New Forest coast; while the Art Gallery has exhibitions of national significance. Well worth a visit if you are in the area.
Cannot comment on museum itself as we had limited time and came into ask re Tourist Information. Staff could not have been more helpful and the artist section with coffee stall provided us with rest and chance to buy one of the artists' work. Hope the council realise how lucky they are with their volunteers!

Hatfield House, just 21 north of Central London, on the edge of Hatfield in Hertfordshire, is a fine example of a Jacobean house, famous as having been the place where Elizabeth 1st learned of her accession to the throne. A great day out in Hertfordshire.

her small daughter. We were really impressed with the model village
and the railway. The whole area is so well kept and the attention to
detail in the models is amazing! We thought that the cafe offered good
value for money, unlike so many places with a captive audience, and
that the playground was brilliant fun. We also really enjoyed the
light railway. Many thanks for a fun day, even in the rain. Best
wishes, Vicky
