Updated 2 February 2002
 2 brand new collections for 2002 have been announced.

 All these cottages should be available from January 2002 onwards.

 
The Dinner Party Collection
 
 Each pub, inn or guest house in this collection has had a previous life and has an interesting history to unfold. Furthermore each model in this collection comes complete with its very own place setting 'pub sign'. (Please also see below for their pictures).

 The collection comprises of the following six pieces each priced £27.50. Collect all six, and you have a table setting fit for the very best David Winter dinner party in town!
 
The Bombay Duck This once floundering pub has been completely refurbished in an elaborate Indian style - complete with onion topped tower. It has been renamed and is a run-away success. People travel many miles to sample its exotic culinary delights. (Height: 10cm)
The Cheshire Cheese Previously, a rather shabby looking building, until a retired thatcher purchased our building. He utilised his skills, to crown the pub with a thatched roof. What a transformation! Its top selling lunch? Cheese ploughman's, of course! (Height: 10cm)
The Harvest Moon This pub certainly lives up to its name! Its main attraction is the camera obscura built into its conical roof. At the time of the harvest moon, light to passes through a small hole in the roof's finial - whereby an inverted image of the moon is projected onto the middle of the floor. (Height: 10cm)
The Hot Pot What at first resembles a medieval castle, is actually a Victorian folly. Why was it named The Hot Pot? For hundreds of years, the hill on which it stands has been known locally as Hot Pot Hill. There are no prizes for guessing what their speciality dish is! (Height: 10cm)
The Smoked Salmon The charm of its rickety appearance has made it a talking point among visitors. It may be small, but it serves some of the finest seafood in the country. It's destined to continue to brave the constant battle against the elements for many years to come. (Height: 10cm)
The Wheatsheaf Although its huge sails have long been removed, this converted windmill has retained a lot of its original charm and character - and ghosts! Whether the local stories be true or not, The Wheatsheaf is a great place to spend an evening, even if the only spirits you'll see are the ones behind the bar! (Height: 9.5cm)
