Babbacombe Model Village and Gardens

Babbacombe Model Village is set in an place of outstanding natural beauty and one of the prettiest areas on the English Riviera. A visit to the Model Village can easily be combined with the Babbacombe Downs offering its famous stunning views and the cliff railway to Oddicombe beach. The Babbacombe Theatre  and award-winning Hanbury's Fish and Chip shop are close by too.

Children enjoy the miniature scenes, animation and fun character hunt trails. Adults also love the character hunts along with the gardens and the representation of English life through the last 5 decades offering a touch of nostalgia and some very English humour.

Explore a World in Miniature, sound & animated effects!

Hundreds of models are on display featuring many architectural styles including Medieval, Tudor, Georgian and Victorian, along with many familiar scenes such as the picture-postcard thatched village and the iconic Stonehenge. Our new talking animated 'Arry miniature resident and a fire-breathing dragon on the medieval castle, never fail to surprise!

Set in Award-Winning Gardens 

Wander through four acres of beautiful award-winning gardens, past meandering streams, waterfalls and lakes. The carefully manicured gardens have led Babbacombe to be acknowledged as one of the best Model Villages in the world.
