Things to do in Barnstaple

Being at the centre of North Devon there is a huge selection of things to do whilst staying in Barnstaple.

If you’re looking for somewhere to splash around or just keep fit in the gym then you might consider a trip to North Devon Leisure Centre. Alternatively, if you’re after a more relaxing day, then perhaps a walk around Portmore Golf Club, which offers both 9-hole and 18-hole options for handicapped and non-handicapped players, would be more to your fancy. For those after an even more relaxing atmosphere, Morwood Hill Gardens is a 50 year old collection of plants and shrubbery that you’re bound to enjoy.

For a day out with the kids, Let’s Go is an entertainment complex just outside of the town centre with a whole host of different activities that everyone in the family can get involved in. Ranging from bowling to karaoke pods, you’ll easily find a way to have fun. For all year round entertainment you can head to the Queen’s Theatre where a range of shows and musical performances will entertain everyone whatever the weather.

If you’re looking for shopping, then you can visit Barnstaple High-street, situated right near Green Lanes Shopping Centre. If you’d prefer to be outside enjoying the great outdoors, then Braunton Burrows, Saunton Sands and Croyde offer some of the finest beaches around.
