This is quite a gem. In this tiny village, there is a miniature railway where, on certain Sundays, you can ride on the little trains between Easter and autumn. Great fun for both children and adults alike! (I went with my daughter last week, and it was fantastic.)

The village hall building (this used to be a train station) serves teas and coffees when the rides are open, and there is a lovely playground outside too. A family day out sorted!
