Driving in and around Exeter
Exeter boasts old city walls that tell of its Roman past, with a river that rolls through the city and breathes life into it. However, it’s also a thoroughly modern place, a successful business hub with renowned hotels and restaurants drawing in visitors from across the UK.
If you have time to combine leisure with work, you’re only a short distance from plenty of gorgeous Devon towns and villages, beaches and coves. While there are numerous secondary roads here, the main motorway serving Exeter and the region is the M5. Its southern tip is just to the south of the city (it runs to its east) and it will take you north, skirting the Blackdown Hills, to Taunton, Weston-Super-Mare and Bristol, before continuing on to Cheltenham, Worcester and Birmingham.
London lies to the east, and you can take the M4 and then join the M5 to get there, or the A303 and M3. Nearby towns are reached by A roads, take the A380 for the perennially popular seaside spots at Paignton and Torquay, or you can head to Barnstaple and North Devon on the A377.
To reach the far south-west you can take routes that hug the northern or southern side of the stunning Dartmoor National Park. For the former, take the A30 past Okehampton and you’ll eventually reach Penzance. Take the southern road, the A38, and you’ll find Portsmouth.
Exeter itself is split in two by its river, with several crossing points. Take the A377 and you’ll find both Exe Bridge North and South, within view of each other.
A hire van in Exeter will come in handy here as you’re close to many of the major shopping centres and retail parks, giving you the extra space to accommodate any large purchases or deliveries. Look out for the Princesshay (which has extensive parking), and the Stone Lane Retail Park. Rydon Lane in the east of the city is known for its bulky goods, with branches of DFS, Halfords and other major retailers.
