The place is really a must visit. It's amazing to see the details of the structures. Definitely this was built with a big heart to bring inspiration and entertainment to the public.
I STRONGLY suggest you to BUY TICKETS ONLINE (admission and TRAIN) as for sure, your kids will definitely do not want to miss out on the train ride. The customer service is totally not up to standard, the staff(Natalie) and the rest of the staff will not mention to you that the train tickets are sold out because it's not their concern what your kids will feel to be left out on train rides. The staff at the entrance MUST mention especially if there are kids, before getting the admission entrance fees, that the train tickets are sold out, for the kids and adults to know that there will be no chance nor an option to buy train tickets when you visit. Some parents complaint at the entrance staff, no show of compassion and admission of their mistake not even heard a sorry. At least inform the visitors the alternative for them to buy tickets online with train tickets. I believe one of the interests of the founders of this place is to bring joy and entertainment and it's in their least intention to make the kids feel left out and disappointed in missing the train ride. Your staff at the entrance first said to buy train tickets at the gift shop and then the gift shop staff said pay cash to the train drivers and the train drivers is just pointing at the signboard prepay train tickets only.

Read more🌟 A Magical Experience at Cockington Green Gardens! 🌟
I recently had the pleasure of visiting Cockington Green Gardens, and it was truly a delightful experience from start to finish. The place is absolutely wonderful, a hidden gem that combines charm, creativity, and warm hospitality in the most beautiful setting.
From the moment we arrived, the staff and customer service were exceptional—friendly, attentive, and genuinely passionate about the place. The gardens themselves are immaculately maintained, and it's clear that a lot of care and effort goes into keeping them pristine.
One of the highlights was the collection of miniature replicas of houses and scenes—each one crafted with such precision and detail that you feel like you're stepping into a magical little world. The mini steam train ride was a huge hit with the kids (and adults too!), making it a perfect spot for families, especially those with children aged 2 and up.
The history of the gardens, dating back to 1972, adds a nostalgic and inspiring layer to the visit. It’s amazing to see how much creativity and dedication has gone into developing and maintaining this place over the years.
A huge appreciation to the maintenance team and the visionary minds behind Cockington Green. Your hard work truly shines through in every corner of the gardens.
