About Lilliput Lane

The first Lilliput Lane cottages were introduced in 1982 and they immediately impressed with their authenticity and attention to detail. From then on, whether recreating the intricate thatch motifs decorating the roofs of traditional country cottages, capturing the majesty of Buckingham Palace or reflecting the sacred character of the smallest church, the Lilliput creative team of sculptors, designers and artists have delighted collectors with the miniature designs. With their fascinating insights into many aspects of Britain’s heritage, the cottages evoke nostalgia for bygone times.

Entirely hand-made and painted in the Scottish borders by skilled artists the cottages have evolved over the years. Several designs now include illuminated windows and doors, music or movement whilst the enchanting wintry and snowy themed cottages are of especial appeal during the festive season.

The Collectors' Club was formed in 1986 in response to requests from enthusiasts who wanted to learn more about the background and history of their favourite cottages, how they were made and also to have the chance to meet up with like minded fans. There are as many types and sizes of collections as there are cottages and whether you are just starting out or you’ve been collecting since the earliest days you can be assured of a friendly welcome from Lynne Thomson and her colleagues at the Club.
