Pecorama (or Pecorama Pleasure Gardens) is a tourist attraction on the hillside above the village of Beer, Devon, in southwest England. In November 2025; the owners Peco announced the site's closure for the 2026 season, citing falling revenues and lack of profits, despite a busy year in 2025. [1] It included a display of many model railways, gardens, a shop, and the Beer Heights Light Railway. [2] [3]

Contents

The attraction is owned and run by PECO, a UK-based manufacturer of model railway accessories. The factory is on the same site.

Pecorama is also home to "Teddy Mac and the Railway Bears", a series of children's books written by Margaret Edmonds. [4]
