Glamping near Exeter

A cosmopolitan city within a stone’s throw of sandy beaches and gorgeous Devon countryside – Exeter ticks a lot of boxes. It’s the sort of place that’ll have you surreptitiously eyeing up estate agent windows as you stroll around the historic streets and Quayside. Glamping near Exeter gives you the best of both worlds: a peaceful, secluded base to reconnect with nature and listen to the birds singing, while being deceptively close to the cultural hub of the South West. Take a look at our glamping places near the bars, restaurants, shops and attractions of Exeter.

Why choose glamping in Devon?

Devon evokes rose-tinted images of bucket-and-spade summers. A montage of idyllic strolls down country lanes, dripping ice creams in pub gardens and green fields dotted with sheep. Sometimes the reality doesn’t live up to the fantasy but it does in the wild west. Our glamping spaces in Devon parachute you into the most beautiful spots in nature where you can unpack, unwind and relish the stunning surroundings. Preferably from the melting warmth of a hot tub. We inspect every one of our spaces so we can vouch for just how unique and special they are.

What to do in Exeter A day in Exeter might begin with a visit to the magnificent gothic cathedral to see the soaring stained glass windows and take a tour of the roof. Then a jaunt round the indie boutiques in the West Quarter and a Devon cream tea to fuel the short stroll to the historic Quayside. Here you can hire bikes, kayaks or paddle boards for a couple of hours to build up an appetite for dinner. If the sun’s shining, hop on the train and visit the miles of golden sand and rock pools at Exmouth or don a rucksack and stride off to Dartmoor National Park.
