A bumper weekend at the Fairground Heritage Centre

Hello there,

I'm a big kid at heart (if you hadn't already guessed) so when we were near the Fairground Heritage Centre in Devon recently - we just had to visit.

This is an indoor attraction (perfect for the British Summer) that houses a variety of fairground history and rides. And the best bit? It's completely hands-on.

There's rides, stalls and the good old fashioned penny arcades, most of which can be played with or climbed on and ridden. And there's staff on hand to make sure you get on and off in one piece.

When you buy your entrance ticket you can get tokens which you exchange for the rides. If you get carried away and go on lots of rides (like me), you can buy extra tokens (like I had to...).

After you've exhausted yourself on the rides, there's a heritage section looking at the history of fairgrounds. Perfect way to unwind before heading for a cuppa in the Carousel Cafe.

We were slightly out of season - so there were a lot more adults than children, but to be honest, we were all kids that day. I can't wait to go back!!

Thanks for reading

Cathy
