Child friendly family holidays on Dartmoor in Devon.

 

   

 

   

Who wouldn't want to come and see new lambs in spring ? Children can cuddle small creatures at most farms.
All of our Devon farm B&B's are very happy to take children, and every child deserves at least one farm
holiday - don't they ? Come and help at feeding time to see children smile.

This is just a handful of the stuff inside one of the self catering accommodation dressing up boxes !

Dartmoor is BRILLIANT for children, with 356 square miles of Moorland to discover.Climbing up on one of the great granite tors will give a child perspective of how the world is and all the pure fresh air taken in will be of huge benefit
to the child's body. Dartmoor is a place for exploration. With hide and seek at a rock circle, a chance to kick up multi coloured golden leaves in the Autumn or pick up a piece of fallen tree bark to see what joys there are beneath.

Children use their imaginations to the full when they climb aboard a pile of logs or fiddle around with a bucket

and net in one of rock pools on one of Devon's many beaches which are all within less than an hour's drive from Dartmoor. Logs in the forest, sit on the front and it becomes a bus to ride. Search in the nooks and crannies to find

all manner of bugs to watch. Take the kids up onto the Moor as evening falls to a high place, maybe with a flask

of hot soup and let them watch how beautiful it all gets as the sun goes down. I'm not going to tell you about

not staring into the sun and watch out for boggy places and all the other gibberish that this Nanny state insists on.

 

Most kids enjoy dressing up and Lustleigh Show this year had a large entry in it's fancy dress section.
So you might like to remember to bring an outfit if you have a pretty little lady like this one who wants to join in.

 

Take a look at our swimming pools on Dartmoor page. We have plenty of swimming pools to visit.

 

Life's a journey of discovery and time spent mucking about in a puddle of frogspawn with your toddler will stay in your memory and his much longer than an hour in a junk filled slot machine arcade and what will it cost you ? Nothing.
