For a relatively small city, Exeter, Devon’s lively, historic capital, has a lot to boast about. Laying claim to spectacular Roman ruins, Britain’s third largest Roman coin hoard, and a Norman cathedral with the longest unbroken stretch of Gothic vaulting in the world, this city’s more than 2,000 years of history is etched into its walls.
But it has appeal for the modern traveller, too. With acres of parks and miles of waterways, Exeter is home to the greenest urban centre in Britain, and its charming mix of independent shops, boutiques,
cafés, bars, and eateries
