This sets a new benchmark for kid-friendly! I can imagine my children enraptured with this wonderful village, so well suited for their perspective!

Hi Marina, I know it looks unbelievably real! The model village is actually in the Old New Inn’s garden and was built in the early thirties by an earlier inn owner and a team of local craftsmen. The replica of the inn actually has the reproduction of the model village itself in the garden including the river and bridges.

My god it looks so real. If you didn’t have pictures with people in them,I would never think this was a model.

I’ve been here! It’s one of the more touristy places in the Cotswolds but it’s fun with kids.

Came here via DeliciousBaby. May I suggest that you link your most recent post rather than the main URL of your site to the PhotoFriday posts? This is what Debbie asks people to do and it also means that latecomers will still go to the right post rather than being confused if they come a few days later and there are new posts on top.

Wow..I didn’t realize at first how small this was. Pretty amazing reproduction I’d guess!
