Mercure Exeter Southgate Hotel, Southernhay E, Exeter EX1 1QF

With its hilly landscape and ancient Roman roots, Exeter offers a wealth of history and sights directly on your doorstep. Your city exploration should begin with the magnificent Gothic Exeter Cathedral, famed for its ornate west front. Just a short walk away, the Norman landmark Exeter Castle (known as Rougemont Castle) overlooks the leafy, serene expanse of Northernhay and Rougemont Gardens. For a change of scene, venture down to Exeter Quay to enjoy the waterfront atmosphere. Culture vultures will also love the city's hidden history: the vaulted, medieval Underground Passages snake beneath the city centre, offering a truly unique excursion. The free-roaming ponies, rugged landscapes, and winding rivers of Dartmoor National Park are also within reach - perfect for those seeking an escape from the city.
