Exeter
South West

Devon's capital city - Exeter is a real hub of history, culture and fun.

As you’d expect from a city with a 2,000 year history, Exeter has plenty to show off, with stunning architecture and heritage visitor attractions. 

At the heart of the city lies Exeter Cathedral, one of the finest examples of decorated Gothic architecture in the country. Cathedral Yard is dotted with cafes and restaurants in which to sit and appreciate the Cathedral’s impressive West Front. Join a free Red Coat Guided Tour to find out more about the history of Exeter. Take a voyage of discovery from pre-history to the present day at the Royal Albert Memorial Museum, with 16 galleries of displays and a year round calendar of prestigious touring exhibitions. Descend beneath the city’s streets on a guided tour of Exeter’s Underground Passages, constructed in medieval times to bring fresh drinking water into the city from springs outside the city walls – an experience not for the claustrophobic!
