LOCATION
Exmouth is a thriving coastal town renowned for its long sandy beach, dramatic Jurassic Coast scenery and excellent lifestyle amenities. The town offers a strong sense of community alongside a wide variety of shops, cafés and restaurants, together with sailing, walking and water sports opportunities.

The surrounding area is well known for its outstanding natural beauty, with easy access to coastal walks, cycle paths and the Exe Estuary, a designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Despite its coastal setting, Exmouth remains highly practical for everyday living.

Educational facilities are well regarded, and there are convenient transport links, including a mainline railway station providing regular services to Exeter. The cathedral city itself offers a more extensive range of cultural, retail and business amenities, together with access to the M5 motorway network and Exeter International Airport.
