Had a look on the website and it's £5.90 for adults...wondered if it was really worth it?
I think DS (2.6) would love the model trains but the question is, will the adults be bored out of our trees?

I loved it . I went as a child so it brought back memories .I think it is worth it . You only have to go the once .

peasinapod · 18/06/2006 10:05

PS I really dont think you would be bored .

I like it there. If you have a ds who loves trains it is well worth it. The model railway network is very good. My son is crazy about trains and he loved it there.

No, it's lovely. DS will love it. I've been going there since I was a similar age to him and used to love peering in the windows and watching the fairground.

Could meet you there one day...

I like the village cricket scene and the boy scouts tent .

It's charming, definitely worth £5.90.

I took my son when he was 2 and it was torture for him not to be able to touch anything as he had never been to a hands off place before. I lost him at one point in the playground and found him in with the models playing with the people. I really liked it but I would only take a non tactile/investagative child again.
