If the weather's good then take them to the dartmoor country park, not sure the railway thing is too good, what about Paignton zoo, or penneywell farm, or remember kids love a beach, how about teignmouth for the day???

I`m sure they`d love the Wildlife and Dinosaur Park at Combe Martin, great day out.

Hi - I live in Devon, and can thoroughly recommend Woodlands Leisure Park. Have a look at the website - http://www.woodlandspark.com. It has 3 great water slides, a toboggan run, paddle boats, a great indoor master blaster where you can shoot each other with soft rubber balls - it's a really full day out. My kids love it - not that far from Newton Abbot either.

Combe Martin is absolutely miles away from Newton Abbot. One is North Devon, one South. An hour and a half travel each way at the very least. Its OK, but not worth that sort of travelling.

Crealy will be suitable for that age, definitely. Woodlands too, however, they have a camp site where people can go in free while staying there so there is unlikely to ever be any quiet days (few and far between anyway in the summer, I agree)

Paignton Zoo is good as well.

I haven't been to the others.
