Description
Take a glimpse into the past - here are seven different stories
of legends and superstitions from Cornish folklore to enchant you. Myth
or truth - you decide. Also a chance to meet Merlin the Wizard, and to
see his magic.
A Replica of Polperro
As you walk through into the Model Village, you enter a true village
in minature. You will see many of the features which have made Polperro so famous.
All accurately reduced to scale, which enables you to appreciate this giant fishing village, "in a nut shell". There is also a fascinating commentary about the history of Polperro, and the floods which the village has withstood.
The Model Railway
This 00 gauge model is 44 feet long, and 8 feet wide, with various
trains moving at all times. It incorporates village life, farms, a
river, a station and depot, and lots more. There is also a separate
model for the children to enjoy. A visit to this very impressive
attraction is a must, and may inspire you to create your own model
railway.
