Property information

We're proud to have been awarded the Travellers Guest Reviews Awards - 2023 & 2024 & 2025 Our spacious, modern three-storey townhouse is in excellent decorative order. The Deluxe bedroom is located on the top floor, overlooking the communal lawn with stunning views of Haldon forest. The property boasts a palatial walk-in rainfall shower dedicated to our Deluxe guests, which is finished to a high standard with tasteful brushed brass fittings and beautiful tropical wallpaper. Our high-end hand-made mattresses are handcrafted by master bedmakers, packed with Dartmoor wool, offering the best night's sleep ever. The luxury bedding is sourced from the 'Hotel' range with 1000 thread count pillowcases, duvet covers, and fitted sheets. On request, you can book the double bedroom for a family group or friends. Both the RD&E Hospital & Nuffield Health are an easy 5-minute walk with no inclines. A variety of independent shops on Magdalen Road is a 10-15 minute walk with a range of independent shops, cafes, and a great pub. A short, easy and flat walk to Topsham Road offers frequent bus links into town and across Devon as a whole. The Tasting Room is located by the bus stop and serves an all-day menu, and Salmon Pool Lane is nearby, where you can enjoy lovely walks at Ducks Marsh and immerse yourself in nature. A scenic stroll of just 10 - 15 minutes from our home brings you to the historic, bustling Exeter Quay with lovely quirky independent shops and a wealth of places to eat, ranging from traditional pubs, pizza parlours, cafes, and restaurants, including Mitch Tonks' award-winning Rock Fish. Take time to sit and relax with a coffee or glass of wine and enjoy the abundant wildlife, whilst you watch the world go by. For Gin connoisseurs, we recommend The Quayside Distillery (follow signs for the Canal Basin) for handcrafted Gin on their premises, The Topsham Brewery is great for craft beer and cider, and the Ocean Club by the Custom House is a must for cocktails.

Here you can relax with a glass of mulled wine and find the perfect gifts for your loved ones. There are many eateries located in and around Cathedral Green including Lloyds Lounge; The Ship Inn, an oak-beamed Tudor Inn with a nautical heritage much loved by Sir Francis Drake, Cote, The Ivy, and many more. Soak up the atmosphere, relax, and unwind in a beautiful and historical location. Located in the leafy suburb of St. Leonards we are blessed with numerous amenities close by, including Quirky Magdalen Road, a popular shopping village with a wealth of independent shops, cafes, a great pub, an organic farm butcher, a family-run traditional cheese shop, a delicious deli and much more. It even boasts a Ukulele shop that can give lessons! Or why not take a picturesque stroll from our home to the historical Quay, made famous in the 1970s as one of the main locations for the BBC's well-loved, Onedin Line. Here again, there are many eateries to suit all tastes and dietary requirements as well as quirky independent warehouse shops. from here it's a short stroll to the city-centre.
