What People Say
This site seemed so quirky we had to try it. My daughter is 22 and we both loved it! It’s great for kids of all ages. The villages are remarkable. The landscape and flowers are so lovely and the train ride around Clonakilty was informative and fun. Give it a try.Faith, July 2024- Our family (from 18 months to 69 years old) had a fantastic afternoon at the Model Railway Village. The model towns and train lines are fascinating the addition of the Alien Hunt had the adults (more so than the kids) really enthralled! The cafe and gift shop, indoor and outdoor play areas and train carriages are added bonuses. A trip round Clonakilty on "Choo Choo" the road train, is a must!Naomi Don, August 2023
This is just adorable seeing the villages/towns in miniature form. Beautifully maintained. We were two adults visiting but would recommend for kids.Garfield, January 2024- We loved this family experience with our 3 year old twins, well kept indoor and out door playground/playroom. Lovely activity with boats and diggers. Friendly staffEmily O Donovan, April 2025
- Absolutely beautiful! Loved it so much! Brought my 80 year old grandmother and my 10 year old son! They both had the best day! ASD friendly and not too big so easy for them to get around! Girls behind the counter were super nice too! And the man driving the train was a great laugh! Overall it was a Great day out!Nikki Laffan, May 2024
