Sidmouth Toy & Model Museum

About Sidmouth Toy and Model Museum

Welcome

The museum was founded by Ian Gregory in 2020 and contains his model collection which has been accumulated over many years, together with other toys and models which have been donated to the museum or which are on loan.

The collection is housed in a beautifully converted chapel located in Chapel Street, Sidmouth in the heart of the shopping area and 50 yards from the beach.

We proudly won a TripAdvisor Travellers' Choice Award in 2025 and are delighted to enjoy a 5* TripAdvisor rating.

Who should visit?

A visit to the museum is a perfect way to reconnect with your childhood. We are an ideal destination for all ages and we welcome individuals, families, schools, coach parties and groups. Well-behaved dogs are also welcome.

The museum is much loved by children too! In addition to our impressive Star Wars and Sylvanian Families displays we have fun quizzes and a hunt for Lego mini-figures around the museum to complete (with prizes of course!)
