Pennywell Farm | Buckfastleigh | Devon
We were invited to Pennywell Farm (PR visit) in Buckfastleigh, Devon for a family day out and enjoyed an action packed family day on the farm.
From the moment we arrived, the staff were so welcoming and were quick to offer their recommendations on how to get the most out of our day. There are activities every half an hour throughout the day, so if you want to try and get around everything, itโs worth getting a photo of the schedule on the way in and planning your route around.
Staying all day? Lunch is covered with various food and refreshments outlets. The pasties are delicious and so too is the coffee!
Weโve been to many local Devon attractions and even farm style attractions further afield but Pennywellโs offering is certainly unique.
With rides, activities and hands on experiences with the animals, Pennywell Farm is a fantastic choice for a family day out. Their staff team certainly bring your day to life with informative talks and attentive customer service.

Devon Air Ambulance Taking Off
Amazing to see Devon Air Ambulance Trust taking off from Torre Abbey Park! We couldnโt see if there had been an incident but all looked calm! #TorquayTourist
Superworm Trail | Haldon Forest | Exeter
We had such a nice time on the #SuperWorm trail at Haldon Forest Park - Forestry England. It was ยฃ3.50 for the activity pack (purchase from the shiny space hut) and our girls were occupied the whole way round!
The play park at the end is always a bonus and a great way for them to burn off that last bit of energy! 100% recommended for families. Be sure to catch Superworm on BBC iplayer before you come, to really get your little ones engaged! #TorquayTourist
*sound on* Try shushing a one year old so you can be more โat oneโ with nature! ๐ #StoverCountryPark #RainyDays #TorquayTourist
We were all really excited to go to @tqsunfestival but it was a little bit underwhelming. Partly due to half of the bouncy castles being deflated and the quality of entertainment/lack of live music. The face painters were really good and so quick, although even these were limiting numbers, as I donโt think they had enough time to see everyone.
I really commend the organisers for bringing a lovely new event to #Torquay and would certainly return next year if improvements are made. Itโs great to have new events and I hope the organisers listen to feedback and come back big and better next year! ๐๐ผ
Views from on top of the big wheel! ๐
@pennywellfarm the excitement was real! ๐๐ The best hands on attraction around! #TorquayTourist
We had big expectations after seeing and hearing lots of great feedback of this unique childrenโs play centre. Unlike anything youโve ever taken your child to before, Bear Town is the perfect place for your role play loving little ones!
Here youโll find amazingly detailed and nicely scaled role play settings including hair salon, car garage, vet surgery, domestic home, fire depot, post office, supermarket, bank, theatre, building site, cafe, and probably my favourite, the police station (with secret jail-brake tunnel).
My 3 year old loved exploring all areas and getting fully involved in the dressing up! The layout and size allows plenty of free flowing play and interaction with other children, whilst still allowing children to have their own space. Our daughter often had one role play area to herself for a while, until another child joined in. A nice little touch and backing up their mantra โLearn through playโ was that in each role play area, there was a QR code to scan for educational content specific to the area your little one was exploring. I didnโt try this, as it was our first time there and we focussed on the play, although next time, this W ill surely add to the experience.
Car parking is huge and free so no need to worry about that. The toilets are spacious and clean, with separate baby changing rooms. This helped as we had a 6 month old.
The cafe onsite was reasonably priced and the food was lovely, offering both adult and children menus. High chairs are plentiful too. Views out of the cafe are onto the surrounding assault course (The Bear Trail) and the surrounding countryside.
Overall, this Devon attraction is unique, offering children an environment for them to dive into what ever takes their imagination! The staff and facilities were great.
Weโll be back!
