our youngest has broken/dislocated his elbow, and will be in a cast while we are on holiday in woolacombe.
Are there any recommendations of suitable activities around the area people can suggest?
We have a few lined up, but more options would really help distract from not being able to swim/play/fight with his older brother.
cheers
Define youngest 🙂
Rock pooling at Lee Bay. It's also the perfect skimming beach if his good arm's not broken.
Museum of whitchcraft at Boscastle & Tintagel Castle are a bit further down the coast and worth a visit.... One in the morning, other in the afternoon etc.
The Big Sheep near Bideford (I believe there's a brewery on site for the dads!)
Cliff walking
are a bit further down the coast
about two hours...
Define youngest
The most recent one to be born, I guess.
Walk along the beach to Putsborough and watch the surfers
Walk Baggy Point to Croyde (great ice cream shop)
The most recent one to be born, I guess.
Well yes but they could be 35 and still the youngest. Therefore suggestions aimed at say at keeping a toddler entertained may not help 🙂
Watermouth Castle has to be seen to be believed.
The Big Sheep near Bideford (I believe there’s a brewery on site for the dads!)
And potentially for the 'children':

The Milky Way isn’t to bad, and the big sheep as posted above. Don’t get chips from the chip shop next to the arcade in woolacome though, utter rip off, and we’re rubbish.

yeah maybe not coke and hookers for the toddlers...
Watermouth Castle does indeed, need to be seen to be believed.
Sit him on the steps outside the red barn and stuff his face with waffles.
Watermouth castle also the very small museum in morte. cliff walks ect Also Ilfracombe if he is naughty.
Get down the amusement arcade. Plenty of one-armed bandits to play.
nice suggestions...
he's 5.
Ours loved the (small) aquarium by the harbour in Ilfracombe at that age. Also in Ilfracombe the tunnels beach feels adventurous as you have to go through the tunnel to get to the beach, good rockpools and you can paddle in the tidal bathing pool but no good when the tides in.
Also boat trips to look for seals etc.
Museum of surfing in Braunton (maybe not every 5 year olds dream sorry).
Steam train on Lynton and Barnstaple railway (ours was steam train mad at 5 and still is)
Cliff railway at Lynton/Lynmouth
Hope some of these help 🙂
If they let you on the rib boat from Ilfracombe harbor with a busted arm go on that if not the big yellow boat for a more slower trip to see the seal's
And waffles big cheif ftw
Great concrete skatepark in Ilfracombe - he could do the other arm to match
Day trip to Lundy Island? Boat goes from Bideford, not sure if there's other sailings from anywhere else these days
Buy a waterproof cast cover then he can still splash around in the pool.
