Welcome to The Den & Playpark

Teignmouth’s beautiful, award-winning green space, The Den, is the ultimate seaside park, matching open grassy lawns with top-tier family attractions. Positioned right alongside the promenade, this vibrant area spans acres of spaces perfect for picnics, relaxation, and active play. At its heart sits our flagship children’s playpark, a brilliant adventure playground built for all ages and abilities, complete with a seasonal wet-play splash zone. Surrounded by stunning floral displays, it is the perfect spot for families to relax while kids run wild within sight of the sea.
