The great thing about Devon is that there are so many tourist attractions and places of interest to visit that there is always something to do inside on wet days. It's a good idea to be prepared and have a list of possible things to do on showery days.

It's perhaps even more important to be prepared on holiday in Devon if you have young children to entertain. Check out places to visit with young children and make up a list of possible all weather places in case there is a wet day and you have restless youngsters to contend with.

A few suggested indoor activities for children are listed below:
