Pecorama: trains and gardens above Beer
Pecorama's miniature trains run through gardens on the hillside above Beer. For families who love railways, the journey is the activity; model railway enthusiasts can also explore the exhibition. The gardens give other members of the party something different to enjoy between train rides.
From Primrose Cottages, Pecorama can anchor a coastal outing around Beer. Its current programme uses selected opening days and special events, with separate pre-booked experiences and tours. Do not arrive expecting a daily timetable throughout the holiday season.
Choose the right ticket
General admission days can include the railway, gardens and model railway exhibition. Driver experiences and factory tours have their own arrangements. Use Pecorama's event calendar and visitor page to see exactly what your date includes. The site accepts card, contactless and digital-wallet payments.
Dogs are welcome on short leads in the gardens. The miniature railway has specific rules for where a dog sits, so confirm that these work for your dog's size and behaviour. The hillside setting also makes the operator's access advice relevant when planning a visit.
For another rail outing, Seaton Tramway follows the Axe Valley. Its route and vehicles offer a different experience during the same cottage holiday.
