A wonderful place to visit. We enjoyed the outside and paid a pound to view the world of miniatures - little rooms/scenes behind glass to peer into. Tip; take 20p's to see the moving exhibits! Finding somewhere to park was very difficult. We circled the numerous small car parks and bays for about 45 minutes trying to find a spot. In the end we got a free short stay parking bay, when someone pulled out. We would have liked more time but had to do the whole visit in an hour and a half.

There a quite a few model villages but this, as far as I know, is the only one that is an actual copy of the village it's in! If a building in the village is changed the model of it has to be changed the same way. I wondered if it worked the other way round. Our hotel was only half built in the model. What if we got back there to discover it had been half demolished??? The model buildings are very accurate and easy to walk around. There is another quirk. The Model village has a model village, which has a model village, which has a model village. Well it has to to remain accurate. I'll let your head get round that one.

We visited 7 years ago and went again with our second son. The miniture village is a copy of the town itself so it has a few new additions. We didn't stay too long and hour but the children had fun walking around and looking at all the properties

Haven't visited a model village in years so decided to take a look. We stayed probably half an hour, we did think it was a bit of a cheek that there was an additional charge to see some other bits inside but the village itself is quite cute. Don't expect it to entertain for a couple of hours though.

The model village is interesting in that it is a representation of the village it is in. That said, it is in generally poor condition and whilst there is some renovation and some new models, the care and maintenance of the village appears to be lacking, especially when you consider the footfall and revenue that must be associated with such a place in this location. It was reasonably priced (which in itself is unusual for the Cotswolds) and we did spend a good half an hour looking round. Kids will probably love it.

The model village is a great representation of the village it is in enjoyed walking around the village after spotting the shops. But …. It was a waste of money in my opinion, in and out in 20 mins. A lot of broken houses, not much in way of ‘decoration’ where were the people etc. some of the houses that did have stuff inside you couldn’t see because the windows were steamed up. Disappointing that you then have to pay an extra £1 per person to see the dolls houses/models inside and as such if you don’t pay you can’t go into gift shop. Wouldn’t recommend or go again.

Having visited a number of years ago, I was looking forward to seeing how things have changed - and they certainly have but not all for the better unfortunately. Many of the models are badly damaged, weatherbeaten or physically and are difficult to identify to the buildings they represent. Admittedly, many are undergoing restoration and the difference between the new and old is staggering. Not sure if the brand new bricks/stone will be weathered but at the moment, it is a hotch potch. We went at a particularly busy period and many of the visitors clearly had no respect for the layouts, with children and adults happy to walk in amongst the models (probably suggesting that much of the damage is by the tourists and their less than controlled children). I was really disappointed with the damage but have hope when I see that significant steps are being taken to repair and bring things back to a semblance of the village I saw 10 years or so ago. To those who run the village, perhaps if what I observed in this visit, is becoming the norm, a price increase allied to introducing some form of security presence would be worthwhile. A sign of the time I guess.

I loved the model village! The care and attention to detail of all the buildings is amazing. The restoration works looks like as though they’re getting the same love and attention and it looks great. It was great to wander round the town, then wander around it again in miniature and see it from a totally different perspective….not something you get to do every day! The lady at admissions was great and we really appreciated her refreshing attitude when we asked about carers rates.

Run down and needs refurbishment the village was obviously once a very nice little model village but now over the years has become badly run down and could do with some work to refresh it. The model village building need cleaning to lift the look of the buildings and the place does need some general tidying up . It’s not expensive to go around but that really is no excuse to let it get a run down feeling as you go though to view. Uneven floors that need attention and repair , walls need repairs but no signs of the repairs on this side of the village however pleased to say a area on the opposite side of the village has some houses cover in plastic with a sign stating repair work taking place but no working being carried out at the time of our visit. Also as we went in we were ask seniors is it and informed well you look it - how lovely what a lovely greeting. Maybe alter this perhaps we do adults or seniors tickets and explained price difference not presume and offend, some may look older but not be . Also having a car park meter installed at the time we arrived we were informed by the people installing it there was no charge for the parking due to the parking meter not being activated as of yet . When it came to me to pay for our tickets for the model village we were informed by yourselves we had to pay for the parking so we did no problem however shame on you for not asking the next people to pay for the parking of their car on your car park . I know this happened as I waited for my husband to put his parking ticket on his on his car . Over all not a good experience 😔but could have been so much better .

We made a slight detour to visit this model village. It is out of this world, we couldn’t believe how amazing it is, the detail is incredible and the houses have all aged naturally. The strange thing was after walking around, I started to feel like I was a giant and had outgrown the houses, it was mind blowing. Better than you can imagine. Loved it.
