The Village Café

After exploring the Model Village, take a break and unwind in our welcoming Village Café. It’s the perfect spot to relax with a cup of Fairtrade barista‑style coffee, or choose from a selection of Barry’s or refreshing herbal teas.

Pair your drink with one of our delicious cakes, a creamy ice‑cream, or a variety of chilled soft drinks — all served in a cosy and friendly atmosphere.

The Village Café is open daily throughout the year, making it an ideal stop any season. Don’t forget to browse the Gift Shop, where you’ll find a wide range of souvenirs to take home.
