    Exeter Holiday Cottages

    Perched at the mouth of the River Exe, the historic city of Exeter is a perfect base from which to explore South Devon. The magnificent Exeter Cathedral is the city's Gothic focalpoint and it presides over a lively quayside and vibrant town centre. Meanwhile, the dramatic Dartmoor National Park is just a short drive away, offering lots of family-friendly hiking and cycling opportunities. Or head to the South Coast for Devon's glorious golden beaches.

    If you're after that home-from-home feeling, our self-catering cottages in Exeter will give you all the cosy atmosphere you're looking for. For maximum convenience, choose one of our city centre homes that are just a short walk away from Exeter's restaurants and pubs. If you fancy something a bit more rural, why not look at our barn conversions or country lodges, on the outskirts of the city. We even have dog-friendly cottages with safe and private gardens for Fido to enjoy.

    Of course, all of our self-catering holiday homes come fully furnished and equipped with all the essentials like linens, towels and cooking equipment. But don't stop there; many cottages in our collection have luxury add-ons like hot tubs, for a more romantic break. And with our best-price guarantee, these don't have to come with a luxury price-tag. Whatever you're looking for, our friendly team will help you find it - so give us a call and book your Exeter break today!

    ## More locations in Devon While Exeter is ideally located for exploring Devon's fantastic beaches, moorland and countryside, if you're happy to look a bit further afield then we highly recommend putting these other top destinations on your list. * [North Devon District](https://www.snaptrip.com/holiday-cottages/north-devon-district) * [Torquay](https://www.snaptrip.com/holiday-cottages/torquay) * [Brixham](https://www.snaptrip.com/holiday-cottages/brixham) * [Woolacombe](https://www.snaptrip.com/holiday-cottages/woolacombe) * [Croyde](https://www.snaptrip.com/holiday-cottages/croyde)

    What our customers say about their holidays

    • Dawn - Verified booking

      What a perfect holiday!

      From looking and booking, to arrival and departure all instructions were easy to follow and communications were excellent. Even a local road closure and re-route for easy travel were sent to us prior to arrival. There are covid - care measures in place and the cottage and grounds are immaculately kept. There was a lovely afternoon tea welcome pack with homemade Devon scones and clotted cream and milk in the fridge. Angela and Stuart are wonderful hosts, nothing is too much trouble for them and they have thought of everything and more to ensure a relaxing and stress-less stay. The cottage is really well equipped with high quality furnishings & home wares - basically everything you'll need. Even surprised and relieved to find some scales as being diabetic, I have to weigh out my food and I'd forgotten to take some. Eco-friendly cleaning materials are provided as are Fairy liquid and Fairy non-bio washing pods to use as the properties utilise non mains water and waste treatment. There is also recycling facilities and waste bags supplied. There's a smart TV which you can use Netflix etc from your own account and good wifi signals. Also have laundry / ironing facilities etc. Honestly they've thought of everything. Everything is scrupulously clean, the beds are really comfortable and everything looks new. The cottage is in really pretty grounds, beautiful hanging baskets and flowers and own private patio and small garden, but you are welcome to use the field at the rear for sport (we played petanque & badminton - but it was too hot to do much more during our wonderful heat-wave week!) The electrically heated pool is well maintained, cleaned and serviced daily and is a great size for families. There is a covid- care rota system in place currently for the cottages to ensure safe and equally use of the pool. If you are going out for the day - ask the neighbouring cottage to swap or change times with you. We did and lazed around for a few days - so basically had the pool area to ourselves - heaven ! The cottages are also dog friendly and there's a big dog walking field just to the rear of the cottages as well as good walks nearby and although dog friendly, there's not one hair or doggy smell to be found anywhere. It's really, really clean. Its in a beautiful spot within easy access of Ottery-St-Mary, Exeter and beautiful beaches of Sidmouth, Exmouth, Sandy Bay and a little further the gorgeous Jurassic Coast. We're already planning to return...... if you're in any doubt about booking here - don't be - its gorgeous and you wont be disappointed. Thank you Angela and Stuart and Helpful Holidays - can't wait to visit again !

    • Anita - Verified booking

      The cottage was beautiful and it was literally a home from home in terms of the facilities and thoughtful touches provided by the owners to make our stay comfortable.

      This included a lovely welcome pack with essentials like milk and tea bags, plus a few luxuries in the form of Prosecco and scones plus jam and clotted cream....oh, and treats for the dog! There were seven adults in our group, which did mean that one had to sleep in a bunk bed, but nevertheless we were very comfortable. Everything was spotlessly clean and the cottage was fully equipped with all the appliances you would have at home. Woodbury is a very pretty village, with two main pubs a few minutes' walk away. The White Hart were very accommodating of our dog and the food there was really good. There's a local store and a takeaway, also both within a few minutes' walk of the cottage. Topsham, about a 10 minute drive away, has more pubs and restaurants to choose from, and the coast is also a very short drive from the cottage. Overall it was a perfect location for exploring Devon and a very lucky last minute find enabling us to get away as a family for the Bank Holiday weekend.

    • Jackie - Verified booking

      We have just come back from The Lodge, 2 adults and 2 boys 9 and 12 and although it is a beautiful house and a has a large and stunning garden/s we didn't completely feel like it was a home from home.

      The owners were fantastic, extremely friendly and accommodating, we just wished there had been more basic items in the house, such as salt/pepper, tea, coffee, sugar, a brush for scrubbing potatoes, little things like that. We didn't realise we would have to bring absolutely everything from home as every holiday house we have stayed in has had these already, although this is not always the case as we understand now. It was not a huge problem as we went to Tesco's and bought some but it would have been nice to know this beforehand. The house itself was lovely and clean but the night storage heaters are very warm in the day, so we either turned them off or right down. We visited many places but it is a journey - 40 to 45mins to Exmouth and surrounding area. There are 1 track roads leading to the house and lots of pot holes around in that area of Devon. Some interesting things to do in the area and we enjoyed the gardens. A lovely house and surrounding area, very peaceful.

    • Susan - Verified booking

      Slight confusion upon arrival (unfortunately, in the dark) as the second signpost up to the cottages had been dislodged in the recent bad weather but one phone call put us right!

      Lovely friendly welcome from Angela who very kindly popped straight out to welcome us, get the key from the safe, open the front door and turn on the lights. Once inside the cotttage was warm, cosy, comfortable and extremely clean. Everything we could possibly have needed, and more, was there for us. The online photos and previous reviews were spot on! Our little dog was with us and all the facilities for him were absolutely fine too and we must agree with other reviewers that there was no sign of any previous canine visitors! Note to other dog owners: We had some dreadful weather during our weekend away and would like to advise about nearby Cranbrook Park. It's less than 10 minutes drive away, easy parking in the local streets, loads of open grassy space, meandering gravel paths and doggy bins. Perfect!

    • Penelope - Verified booking

      We had a great break and Whimple Cottage was very warm and comfortable.

      We appreciated the delicious scones that were left for us and the fresh flowers in the cottage. When I booked the cottage, the swimming pool was a factor in my decision to book. Fortunately, I asked the owner a question about it and was told it was closed for the winter. This was disappointing and to be fair to the owner, she did offer to cancel the booking free of charge. We declined this offer and obviously did stay at the cottage. I think it should be very clear to anyone considering booking that the pool is closed during the winter. If I hadn't mentioned it, we would have arrived expecting it be to open and we would have been very disappointed. It was a shame because it annoyed me before we arrived and in fact the cottage was great.
