Why not experience the ever changing miniature world of Babbacombe Model Village. Take time out from the hustle and bustle of every day life and feel on top of the world as you see it re-created in miniature. Thousands of miniature buildings, people and vehicles set in 4 acres capture the essence of England's past, present and future. It's not just the humour, nor the animation - it has a life of its own.

Towering above a medieval village, Merrivale Castle is a miniature tourist attraction full of visitors enjoying a day out re-living medieval England. The whole scene comes to life with superb animated effects featuring all the bawdy, comic events of old England. Dramatically illuminated at night, part of this feature is the Dastardly Dungeon, where characters are stretched to their limit, and hysterical scenes at the Celebrity Banquet- see who's been invited to the feast. After its popularity in 2005, the fabulous Silvers Circus has returned to town - a unique opportunity to see this amazing animated model of a three-ringed circus with over 120 animated effects and moving figures.

Open all year, and summer evenings until late - times vary so phone or check website for details.
