Things to do on site and in the Tiverton area
The private riverside meadow is a great place for children to run around, complete the nature trail and burn some energy! There is a picnic area with benches right on the bank and a fire pit so you can toast marshmallows and enjoy a sundowner here too.
In the summer months it's a great spot to paddle and go wild swimming and keep an eye out for the wildlife where kingfishers, egrets, salmon, trout and even the elusive otters can be seen.
A two-minute walk will take you to the Devon Railway Centre where you can hop on a train ride, see the model railway and explore the indoor play coaches and soft play. Alternatively, you can take a stroll down the Exe Valley way.
A traditional Devon cream tea can be experienced next door at Bickleigh Mill or at National Trust properties Knightshayes or Killerton, or local home Fursdon House. In Tiverton visit the museum and castle or take a horse-drawn barge along the Great Western canal. Stamina and endurance can be tested at the Bear Trail and a monster machine ridden at Diggerland.
