From their website. ARE DOGS ALLOWED IN THE MODEL VILLAGE? Yes, well behaved dogs are allowed, with some restrictions - Dogs are welcome throughout the gardens, indoor displays and gift shop. They strictly cannot go into the coffee shop, except for guide/assistance dogs This is partially due to its limited size and restricted space. We do have seating outdoors on the terrace with a few sheltered tables. This is a no exceptions rule, so if you are planning to use the coffee shop we advise visiting us on a dry day! They must be kept on a short lead and you must stay with them the whole time. You must come prepared to pick up any doggy dos!
