Cockington Green Gardens

Cockington Green Gardens
Created by Doug Sarah and his family, the Australian Tourism Award-winning Cockington Green in Canberra features meticulously crafted miniature buildings of Great Britain set within superbly landscaped gardens.
Since 1979 everyone at Cockington Green Gardens has been working extra hard to create somewhere magical just for you to visit.
It started with a fascinating collection of miniature buildings from all parts of Great Britain, all constructed down to the finest detail and in perfect scale. Cockington Green Gardens also features a miniature steam-train – but this one’s big enough to ride on. Cockington Green Gardens’ new international and Australian section, whilst in its infancy, features buildings from South Africa, Columbia, Chile, Holland and Czech Republic with a number of others to be included in the months ahead.
Construction of a fascinating visitor operated train is just about to commence. Also, with the onset of the warmer months remaining work will get underway on the water features in the new display. Cockington Green Gardens is a unique experience, a really magical day out for everyone.
