Summer of Play at Coleton Fishacre

Summer at sea begins here. Embark on a hands-on adventure packed with challenges and problem solving games. Explore sensory moments, get creative with building or spend lazy summer days in the hammocks and on the swing with a view at the sailors hangout on the coast. By the house, there's 1920's vintage games, from Battle Ships to Ludo and a giant version of Peggity - ideal for all the family. This year Pokémon joins Summer of Play, and at Coleton Fishacre there's a free Pokémon trail sheet (while stocks last) available to collect on the day, with a sticker for each property you visit. Summer of Play activities are free (normal admission applies).

In this witty, new breed of mystery, George (Hugh Jackman) is a shepherd who reads detective novels to his beloved sheep every night, assuming they can’t possibly understand. But when a mysterious incident disrupts life on the farm, the sheep realise they must become the detectives. As they follow the clues and investigate human suspects, they prove that even sheep can be brilliant crime-solvers.

More about Boohay

Devon, England

Boohay in Devon is a proper quiet corner where the sun knows how to shine without anyone asking for it twice. There aren't many venues listed yet, but that just means you'll find something better than a crowded festival on any given Saturday. We're keeping an eye on local notices so you don't have to drive miles just to see a band play or watch a play. When new dates drop, we'll be the first to tell you about them without needing a single app on your phone.
