Situated on the hillside above the picturesque fishing village of Beer, East Devon (on the south-west coast of England), PECORAMA has something to offer every member of the family. The attraction, having a railway theme, includes a fascinating Indoor Exhibition of modelling in various popular scales, whilst the Gardens are home to the famous Beer Heights Light Railway. This 7ΒΌ-inch narrow gauge passenger-carrying line, powered by miniature steam and diesel locomotives, winds its mile-long way through tunnels, loops and cuttings giving wonderful views of Beer and Lyme Bay en-route. Visitors will find the grounds also offer imaginative children's' play areas, crazy golf and full catering facilities. PECO Millennium Garden: A garden like no other, the breath-taking design incorporates a ruined tower enclosing the Roof Garden. The waters of the lush and leafy Moat Garden trickle down over granite boulders into the multi-coloured flower beds of the Rainbow Garden. On to the silvery foliage and blue flowers of the Moon Garden before making your way to the gloriously golden yellow, flower-filled Sun Garden. A Lecture Theatre completes this marvellous project and here, our own staff give talks and demonstrations on both the gardens of PECORAMA and the Model Railways of PECO, brand leader in Model Railway track manufacture. Prices: Please note Crazy Golf and extra train rides are both additional costs. BARGAIN COMBINED TICKET (Including the Gardens, Activity Area, Wildway Walk, Entertainment as listed, one ride on the Light Railway and entry to the Model Exhibition).
