Hullo!
Welcome to Bekonscot - the World’s oldest model village. We are now OPEN EVERY DAY from 10am-5pm for a big day out you’ll never forget. Hilarious, eccentric, exceptionally English, full of big model trains and crammed with thousands of little model people, houses and moving stuff, it’s time you made a visit.
Next events:
Sat 21 & Sun 22 Aug: Falconry…
Over the years we've made quite a few films of the model village. Well, we would, wouldn't we? Lots of people have made their own films too. Below are our favourites, but you'll find even more in History.
Bekonscot is the perfect fun eductional trip; more than 100 schools visit us annually and most of them repeat visits. The model village is a unique and stimulating teaching aid for nursery, infant and junior children with wide application to the curriculum.
So that it's fun for you too, we have lesson plans, activity sheets and online resources all ready for you to use.
