Visiting Exeter: Restaurants, History And Attractions

Situated in the South West of England, the Cathedral city of Exeter attracts thousands of visitors each year. As Devon's capital, Exeter boasts a large selection of shops, award-winning Exeter restaurants, stunning surrounding gardens and is rich in history.

Venture a little further and you will reach the coast with numerous of things to keep you occupied. The Jurassic Coast stretches across more than thirty miles and includes many beautiful sandy expanses at Exmouth, Teignmouth and Beer. Additionally, Dawlish and Sidmouth are charming sea-side towns perfect for all the family.

History of Exeter

Exeter's history stretches back 2000 years. Archaeological findings have shown evidence of a Celtic settlement on the banks of the River Exe, but the city today is built on the foundations laid by the Romans. They built a fortified wall around the city which was later improved for protection against Danish raids.

Exeter was a major trading port until a weir was built across the river in 1290 therefore halting river traffic. In 1563 the first ship canal in Britain was built which interrupted the weir and the city began to re-establish itself as a trading port and became heavily involved in the cloth and wool trade.

Eating Out in Exeter

Exeter is the perfect place for the ultimate ‘foodie'. There are a variety of good Exeter restaurants and gastro pubs dotted throughout the city and surrounding areas. For many Exeter restaurants there is a huge focus on using local produce, which not only supports local suppliers it also benefits the environment and helps to reduce the carbon footprint.

For a countryside location head to The Jack in the Green which serves rustic dishes with an emphasis on fresh, local and seasonal produce. This friendly Exeter restaurant has won a number of accolades including Best Restaurant in the South West of England by the Taste of the West Awards 2009/2010.

In the centre of the city overlooking Exeter Cathedral is the boutique Abode Hotel where the two Michelin star chef Michael Caines has a restaurant. Expect fine dining at its best with a variety of menus and wines to choose from.

Exeter Attractions

Other than fabulous Exeter restaurants, a large shopping centre, quaint coffee shops and specialist stores there are numerous attractions to visit in Exeter. There are various historical sites, gardens and family attractions.

Castle Drogo is a country house near Drewsteignton, Exeter. It was the last castle to be built in England (in the 1910's and 1920's) and was built for Julius Drewe, a successful local businessman. It is situated at a height of nearly 300 metres set above the Teign Gorge with dramatic views overlooking Dartmoor. Its height means that it consequently experiences severe weather conditions.

Bicton Park Botanical Gardens are grade 1 listed historic gardens set in east Devon's picturesque Otter Valley, between the ancient city of Exeter and South West England's Jurassic Coast. This fabulous landscaped park combines 18th Century tranquillity with modern amenities. Younger visitors can enjoy the Bicton Woodland Railway train ride, nature trail, maze, mini golf and indoor and outdoor children's play complexes.

What is the best family hotel in Williamsburg, Virginia?


I am taking my family of 5 on vacation to Williamsburg & need to find a hotel that's family oriented with indoor pool ,but also close to everything,(busch gardens, watercountry, williamsburg, jamestown & yorktown). Also, maybe hotel with breakfast buffet or close to other restaurants.

You might want to stay at two different hotels. We stayed at the Woodlands when we were just seeing Colonial Williamsburg. It is next door to the visitors center and there are lots of buses back and forth to Colonial Williamsburg (you cannot park in Colonial Williamsburg). It has a free breakfast and lots of families with kids of all ages. No pool, but you are spending the day in Colonial Williamsburg. You can also get a special rate on your admission ticket and a dinner meal plan that really saves a lot of money.
Jamestown is just a day trip.
