EXETER
POP 119,600
Exeter is steeped in evidence of its centuries-old role as the spiritual and administrative
heart of Devon. Relics include its ancient cathedral and chunks of winding Roman wall.
But the city also has a youthful vibe, visible in bursts of ultramodern construction and a
thriving arts scene. Down by the River Exe, the atmospheric quayside is a launch pad for
explorations by bike or kayak. Add a movie museum, the chance to go on subterranean
tours and stylish places to stay and eat, and you have a relaxed but lively touring base.
