Things to do with Teenagers in North Devon
Discussion
I live near Braunton and I'd say unless they like water sports then you are knackered. There's loads for younger kids but not sure about teens. Exmoor zoo may be worth a visit if the girls are into that kind of thing?
Edited to add: creaky adventure park is nearby and there may be a go ape type of thing? There's the Combat Collection which is a collection of old military vehicles. Rent or ride your own bikes around the Tarka trail?
Not sure if this is poor form or not but do not eat at the Braunton Inn. It's down the road, picturesque and does nice deserts but the other food is sub Weatherspoons standard. Bank 52 in town is very good for affordable eating and we always go there.

O/T but we just got back from a week staying at a lovely farm near Swimbridge and must have driven through Braunton about 10 times to get to various destinations (God, those traffic lights...)! Edited by dai1983 on Monday 29th July 19:25
We drove past that place numerous times thinking it looked lovely but, going by your comments, thankfully we did not bother.
We did however eat at The Riverside restaurant, which was excellent albeit the service was a tad slow.
To the OP - seriously, get them all body-boards and get up to Saunton Sands / Putsborough beach. I bet my bottom-dollar it will keep them entertained most of the week.
The Stag's Head Inn in South Molton is great for Sunday lunch but book ahead as it gets busy.
We went to The Big Sheep but your children are probably too old (certainly the lads) to be kept interested although there seemed to be lots of older teenagers in the splash centre (essentially a 5-a-side court with facilities to fill up water balloons and lob them everywhere, including at poor unsuspecting passers by...).
But seriously, the beaches are awesome.
We are in North Devon at the moment.
So far the surfing has been ok, but its too flat today, so we will go for a walk out to Baggy Point.
We came equipped with 4 surfboards, 3 bodyboards etc so the watersports angle was covered from day 1
Monday was very wet, so we went tio the cinema in Barnstaple.
