Dawlish-top tips for under 5s

[rjbyorks]

En route to Dawlish for a long weekend. Anyone got any top tips for a 1 year old and 5 year old? Thx

There is a zoo at Shaldon which is lovely, by The Ness pub. The usual places, Paignton zoo, Living Coasts, I like Teignmouth sea front, and there is a really good play area now by the pier at Paignton.

We are going on a day trip to Dawlish Warren tomorrow. Will be taking our crab lines and catching some crabs (and then putting them back!)

Teignmouth has a great play park on the sea front and of course the pier with it's arcade which is good fun. The zoo in Shaldon is ok too.

I don't have any suggestions but I will be stalking this thread as I am going to Dawlish warren on holiday in two weeks with my 14mo dd

There is a great holiday park near Dawlish called Cofton Country Holidays, they allow day visitors at a small charge and have a lovely outdoor pool and a great new complex with soft play for little ones and a family friendly indoor pool as well.

There is a shop in Dawlish called Sticky Fingers which sells amazing flavours of ice creams. It's near the mini golf course down at the bottom of the brook.
Have fun!
