OAP and 10 year old

Looking for advice on where I could take my 10 year old gs on a short break at the end of the month. He is quite active and enjoys, golf, archery, clay shooting and cricket. Also has an interest in history and anything that involves computers. He is not so keen on water sports. As an active 74 year old I think I could do most things but not so good with theme park rides. Suggestions very welcome. Thank you.

Are you looking for somewhere in the U.K. or abroad? Where are you based as it makes. Difference for U.K. trips.

If there’s any availability, I’d suggest Woburn Centre Parcs with a day trip to Bletchley (only 20 mins away).

I am in Cornwall and gs is in London. Lots of holiday camps in Cornwall but they are very pricey and lack choice of activities for 10year old. Been to Bletchley Park with gs and can highly recommend for a day out.

Given you’re down south, for hotels with lots of activities, The Belfry, Warwickshire might fit the bill. Celtic Manor would also be an option.
