Stay in the heart of Exeter in this stylish 2-bedroom apartment, set within a grand Victorian building on a quiet, historic street. Just a short walk from shops and attractions, it offers a modern open-plan kitchen/living area with smart TV and double doors to a shared garden with seating. A second sitting room with TV converts to a double bed. The master bedroom features a king-size bed, with a shared bathroom including bath/shower.
Guest Access:
Guests have access to the whole apartment and shared garden. It is worth noting that the garden is very rarely used by other residents.
The Neighborhood:
The house is located on a historic, quiet street in the centre of Exeter. It's perfectly located and benefits from being in a peaceful location but with the city's amenities and attractions a short walk away. Just 1 minute walk will lead you to Magdalen Road, a traditional high-street with a plethora of artisan cafes, coffee shops and restaurants.
Exeter is a small, yet bustling city which is famed for its pretty Cathedral and charming historic buildings. Cafes spill out onto the green, where you can enjoy delicious alfresco lunches during spring and summer. Meanwhile, in winter, the courtyard 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, there are a plethora of cobbled back streets and hidden gems to discover. From JK Rowlingâs inspired The Old Fire House pub to the quirky Glorious Art House cafe and the charming Gandy Street - all are a must-visit.
One of the brilliant things about Exeter is its proximity and access to the countryside and coast. Within 15-20 minutes you could be wandering through the quaint streets of Topsham - a fishing village where youâll find some fantastic antique shops. Or, tucking into fresh fish and chips at the famous Dartâs Farm. Enjoy days spent on the beach at Exmouth, Sidmouth or Budleigh Salterton - and make sure to stop off at Lympstone Manor, a beautiful manor house hotel run by Michael Caines.

Fantastic location. Very easy walk into town and to the cathedral. Master bed was comfortable and lots of hanging and drawer space! The flat was very clean and decorated with artificial green plants that were also clean. We used the daybed room as a full bed for our adult son and he was comfortable. It was very easy to park our car (on-site parking) and there was a very lovely garden space attached to the flat. We would absolutely stay here again.
Lovely apartment in a good location not too far from the city centre and the shops and bars in Magdalen Road just round the corner are great. We had a few issues with the timing of the heating, the light in bathroom and a bit of uncertainty over parking which we have raised with the host and will hopefully be resolved. Overall these did not spoil our few days here and we would definitely stay here again if we return to Exeter
