Devon's Exe Estuary is home to the Devon community of Starcross, offering a small number of facilities, such as a convenience store and a couple of bars and restaurants for nights when you don't feel like cooking. Take a boat across the estuary to the charming coastal town of Exmouth, which is regarded as the entryway to the World Heritage Jurassic Coast and offers a family-friendly two miles of gorgeous beach. A range of watersports, including kite surfing, kayaking, and windsurfing, are also available. If you're looking for a more adventurous day out, consider taking a long walk along the South West Coast Path with your canine friend at your side or make the most of the Exe cycle trail.

    The welcome treats were perfect! Thank you. Our host was welcoming and if needed was at the end of the phone. The Annexe was ideally placed for our visits to Exeter and the south coast using the train. Will definitely be revisiting.

    Ideal location for visiting Exeter or exploring the coast. A welcome pack was much appreciated. Parking easy either on nearby road or carpark after 6. Only downside was lack of TV outside of netflix or Amazon.
