Close by are numerous quality golf courses such as those at Woodbury Park, Exeter, East Devon at Budleigh Salterton and Dawlish Warren. If gardens are your thing, then there’s Bicton, Pecorama, Killerton, Knightshayes & Escot Park. On top of the wonderful coastal beaches, there are a choice of swimming pools at Sidmouth, Exeter, Exmouth, Whimple and Topsham. Theatres and music venues, arts and crafts exhibitions and outlets and museums of all sorts make this a truly cultural area.

There are also many good pubs and excellent dining establishments to seek out, some just 5 minutes away by car. Exeter and the surrounding area have a wealth of cycle ways, many miles can be travelled without using main roads and if you fancy more open spaces then the top of Dartmoor National Park is just 16 miles or so to the west – here you can enjoy a day of walking and discover the vast moorland and roam the craggy landscape, defined by forests, rivers, wetlands and rock formations or tors. Or search the Neolithic tombs, Bronze Age stone circles and abandoned medieval farmhouses in this amazing landscape!
