Highly recommend. The kids loved it. Unfortunately there were unsupervised kids running through the villages but that's on the visitors not the owners here. Only thing that knocks it down a point is portion size for the ice cream 🤣 £3.20 for barely a scoop!

Excellent little attraction. The village is packed with models in a relatively small space. Narrow path arrond village...so on busy days customers will have to be mindful of others with mobility issues. Tearoom is quaint and staff were very polite and helpful when I visited...even still willing to serve me a cuppa and slice of cake 5 mins before closing times. Small gravel carpark with a few invalid spots. I found it a very enjoyable visit and would thoroughly recommend this place.

Came here with my partner, 5 year and baby. Father's day meant father's got in free which was an added bonus. The staff were lovely, we wasn't sure what to expect but it exceeded our expectations. This little gem is a brilliant place not just for kids but for adults too. You get a clip board to go around with and have questions to answer which was really fun and kept my son engaged. Once we completed it and finished we then went around again and saw things we had previously missed and was able to really take it all in properly. Once you have paid you can leave and come back as long as it is on the same day. The attention to detail is fantastic and the settings are lovely. We will definitely be visiting again when we are back.

We visited this week, and arrived after the last entry time, fully expecting to be turned away. The staff were amazing. Despite the tills being closed and the day officially over, they let us in because they didn’t want to disappoint my 6 year old, and 1 year old children. We genuinely can’t thank them enough. The kids had the most magical time exploring the miniature village and would have been heartbroken if we’d missed it. It’s the kind of kindness you don’t forget. And beyond the brilliant staff, the place itself is wonderful. The care that’s gone into the model village is impressive, and it’s one of those spots that captures kids’ imaginations instantly. If you’re in Bridlington with little ones, this is a must-visit. Highly, highly recommended.

First visit to Bondville Model Village and loved it. Took my granddaughters and they also loved it. The little quiz finding the rabbits etc kept them entertained throughout. We then ate at the cafe and the food was delicious. Everyone we interacted with was so friendly and the staff obviously love their jobs and environment. A must visit when visiting Bridlington.
