Guest Access:

The Neighborhood:

The house is tucked away in a friendly neighbourhood in central Exeter. Your local high street feels more like a village, with offbeat cafés, delis and shops. However, you’re still only a 10 minute walk from the city centre.



Exeter is a small, yet bustling city which is famed for its 14th Century Cathedral Cathedral, which boasts the longest stretch of unbroken Gothic vaulting in the world! There are many other charming historic buildings. Cafes spill out onto The Green, where you can enjoy delicious alfresco lunches during spring and summer. Meanwhile, in winter, the Cathedral Close twinkles with the lights of Christmas market stalls. The nearby high street is filled with shops and restaurants - a mixture of chains and independents - so you can shop to your heart's content.



As well as the high street, the cobbled Gandy back street has shops and restaurants to discover. From the quirky Glorious Art House cafe via the charming charming Hour Glass pub and down to the Quay area - there is plenty for varying tastes.



One of the brilliant things about Exeter is its proximity and access to the countryside including Dartmoor, and the Jurassic Coast. Within 15-20 minutes you could be wandering through the quaint streets of Topsham - a fishing village where you’ll find some fantastic antique shops and restaurants, including the Passage House Inn, The Galley and The Salutation Hotel. Or, browsing the fresh meat and delicatessen supplies or

tucking into fresh fish and chips at the famous Dart’s Farm shop and restaurant centre. There are nature trails and cycle paths in this estuary area as well. Enjoy days spent on the beach at Exmouth, Sidmouth or Budleigh Salterton - and make sure to stop off at Lympstone

where there is a beautiful manor house hotel run by the chef Michael Caines.

Other Things to Note:

The lane to the parking on the driveway is very narrow so it may help to fold the mirrors in on some larger vehicles. It is too narrow for a Ford Transit van or Large SUV.



The property is not suitable for babies or children for safety reasons. There are steep steps leading to an off limits area. There is also a steep drop in the front garden, which could be a risk for crawling children/babies.
