If my teenagers are anything to go by, I know that entertaining teens can be a fine balancing act. Days out have to be not only fun, they also need an element of cool. If there’s an TikTok-able moment too, even better!. So what are the ‘sick’ (that’s ‘good’ to you and me) things to do in Somerset with teenagers? Here’s your guide to days out with your teens!
Lock and Code Escape Rooms Taunton is guaranteed to keep them engaged and entertained. We suggest allowing 1hr and a half to play these games. An escape room is like a mix between the Crystal Maze and the Da Vinci code. Each themed room holds a variety of locked drawers, boxes, hidden rooms and puzzles and you must solve all of them to complete the quest within an hour. Great for everyone and great teamwork.
If your teens are looking to burn off some energy, head for Flip Out Wellington. It’s a state-of-the-art trampoline 36,000 sq.ft. adventure park in Wellington, just a 20-minute drive from our properties in Halse or 35 minutes from our Railway properties. Teens will love the cool street art and futuristic lighting system. Stunt-box zones, battle-beam stations and a ninja obstacle course are just a few of the brilliant areas to the park. Refreshments are available from their café.
Brean Theme Park is fun for all the family from tots to teens. There are heaps of exciting rides to have a go on, there’s X-Treme, Disko, Wipe-Out, Crazy Loop and Wild Water – loads, loads more for all ages! Brilliant, isn’t it? There’s Congo Adventure Golf, Go-Karts and a shooting gallery., They’ll love it! There’s plenty of places for food stops, from burgers and hot dogs to a sit-down lunch. What an exhilarating day out!
Within the County town of Taunton, there’s plenty to do with picky teens! Tackle the High Ropes Course at Vivary Park or get competitive on the Crazy Golf Course. We highly recommend spending some time at the Museum of Somerset on Castle Green, where they have a regular programme of events on offer. If the weather isn’t playing ball, catch the latest movie at the Odeon or spend a few hours of fun at Hollywood Bowl.
