    “An extremely disappointing stay.”

    This had been our 3rd stay here and we booked for 2 weeks. After a 7 hour train journey we arrived without a welcome pack so couldn’t even have a quick drink before we went shopping. The house didn’t feel very clean and there are too many things to list that need attention. The kitchen table is held together with one screw and was quite dangerous we also were without sockets in the upstairs bedrooms for a week which was very inconvenient. This property is very rough around the edges now and ...

    This had been our 3rd stay here and we booked for 2 weeks. After a 7 hour train journey we arrived without a welcome pack so couldn’t even have a quick drink before we went shopping. The house didn’t feel very clean and there are too many things to list that need attention. The kitchen table is held together with one screw and was quite dangerous we also were without sockets in the upstairs bedrooms for a week which was very inconvenient. This property is very rough around the edges now and this time it was an uncomfortable stay. We found it so convenient for our stay visiting family and friends but unfortunately won’t be staying again.

    We are especially disappointed to hear that you felt aspects of the stay didn't meet your expectations and apologise for this. Considering that the property was fully renovated only 18 months ago, and other reviews left by guests have been very positive, we are surprised by your feedback. As such, we have personally visited the property to assess the issues you have raised and have been liaising with our management company, Oak Homes to address any areas for improvement. Unfortunately, some things such as the storm affecting the upstairs sockets are beyond our control, Oak Homes kept you closely updated and we are sorry that we were unable to resolve the situation during your stay. Rest assured that we always act on feedback and hope that you would consider staying again with us in the future. Property Owner

The property

Nestled close to the centre of the thriving city of Exeter in Devon is this beautifully-renovated mid-terrace holiday property, 13 Oxford Street.

This dog-friendly holiday home benefits from a fantastic location close to the centre of the city, the River Exe and within reach of Dartmoor National Park, as well as a welcoming, open-plan living space and two well-appointed bedrooms the perfect choice for families, friends or couples looking to explore all Devon has to offer.

After a day full of exploration, cross the threshold into your new home-from-home where you can unwind on the plush sofa in front of the warmth of the gas fire and watch on as the designated chef of the group cooks up a storm in the fully-equipped kitchen.

Sample their culinary creations around the dining table before heading outside to enjoy evening drinks on the decking in the last light over Devon.

When stars appear overhead, head back inside to wash off the day’s adventures in the bathroom before heading to the first floor to choose between a king-size and double bedroom to catch your rest.

If you can tear yourself away from this fabulous dwelling, take a short walk into the heart of Exeter where you can stock up on all of your essentials at local convenience stores or enjoy a well-earned break from the kitchen at pubs like The Kings, The Fat Pig or Ship Inn.

Endless attractions can be found in the centre of the city including the unique underground passages which meander underneath Exeter, Exeter Cathedral, the Devon Archaeological Society, Northernhay Gardens and Belmont Park.

The coast is also accessible by car, spend a day on the shores of Teignmouth or Dawlish Town Beach and admire breath-taking views across the English Channel.

Venture further afield to Dartmoor National Park which houses its own zoo as well as endless walking and hiking trails with stunning views across Devon’s countryside.

All this and more awaits at 13 Oxford Street.

Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £250.

About the location

EXETER

Shillingford Abbot 2.4 miles; Exminster 4 miles; Topsham 4.4 miles.

Exeter is a lively city in south Devon with a magnificent cathedral, historic quayside area with artisan shops and cafes, guided tours of the maze of underground passages and a wealth of bars, shops and restaurants. There is a good choice of excellent museums tracing the city’s lengthy history including an interesting medieval building The Tucker’s Hall, built for the Company of Weavers, Tuckers and Shearman which houses exceptional carved panelling, rare silver and a 4 feet long pair of fulling shears. Nearby Parliament Street claims to be the world’s narrowest street – less than 25 inches at its narrowest. The gatehouse and tower of Rougemont castle still stand in the city, surrounded by Rougemont gardens with a backdrop of Roman wall ruins - a tranquil haven. Exeter’s one time importance as a port is reflected in the Custom House, now the centrepiece of the Quayside, a fascinating complex of antique shops and cafes. Within a 15 minute drive of the city, there are some fabulous beaches at Sidmouth and Exmouth, and the start of the 95 mile stretch of Jurassic Coast, all of which provide ample opportunities for relaxation, sport and exploration. Exeter is an ideal south Devon base from which to explore pretty countryside and Heritage Coast.
