My in laws had a great break for a week in June. Lovely, clean and well equipped place within walking distance of the town and beach. Not just that, when my father-in-law was too ill to drive home on the Friday, Ruth let them stay in her house for the night, picked up my brother-in-law from the station so that he could drive them home. Ruth’s kindness and hospitality was absolutely superb and we can’t thank her enough!Full recommended

I enjoyed a wonderful three‑night stay in July. The studio is tucked away on a quiet road and was spotless, well‑organized, and equipped with everything you might need. There was even a thoughtful note inviting guests to contact the host if anything was missing which I found very reassuring.Ruth was exceptionally responsive to my many messages and always tried to accommodate my requests. I had planned only to drop off my bag early and return later in the afternoon, but because the previous guests left ahead of schedule, she kindly made the studio available as soon as I arrived. A DIY welcome breakfast was also provided, which I greatly appreciated.I didn’t have a car and relied on walking and public transport. The beach was an easy walk. The town was a bit farther but still very manageable. For anyone who prefers not to walk or has mobility concerns, there are bus stops on the main road that take you either into town or toward the large Tesco and beyond. Ruth even offered me a lift to the train station when I left—so kind and completely unexpected. I’d happily stay here again the next time I’m in the area.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in the studio. It had everything we needed including a comfy bed, a spacious and modern bathroom, a well equipped kitchen and a huge television. Ruth is a great host who thoughtfully left us various goodies to save us having to dash to the shops on arrival.

A perfect property for a holiday, clean and tidy within reach of the town and beach, starter pack left by the owner to carry us over the first day, most unusual a off-road parking spot. Would certainly recomend to all who are looking to the Exmouth area for a break

Stay in Exmouth

The accommodation was perfectly located for us to explore exmouth. We were very comfortable and especially liked the step free shower! The welcome pack was really appreciated. We felt the co-axial cable for the TV could have been relocated around the kitchen area rather than under a rug and a hook and/shelf would be handy in the bathroom but we this did not diminish our stay and we would glady stay here again

Everything you need for a few days away

The Studio was spacious, and the owner had kindly left us some breakfast items, milk, yogurt, bread etc. Only a microwave, toaster, kettle and fridge but adequate for a few days as we explored the area and ate out mostly. The bathroom was bright and clean and electric shower good. Just a ten minute walk to the beach or town. We had a lovely stay and the parking space was a bonus. Definitely recommended.

Lovely Little Studio

Positioned well in a quite private road. Our host Ruth was very helpful and left welcoming goodies - Milk, Bread, Tea, Coffee and other food in the fridge. Our dogs were welcome and allowed to use the garden (not enclosed). The only draw back is there is only a microwave for cooking/heating food, no hob or oven. This is probably stated in the description and I must have over looked it. Good location for easy access to major routes and of course Exmouth. I would definitely return.

About the host

Hosted by Ruth Jones

Host profile image
A family who enjoy living close to the beach for paddle-boarding, cycling, and walking.
We like to welcome guests from around the world & share stories if you are keen?

We are quiet around the house enjoying the garden and proximity to the beach.

Why they chose this property

We live in a quiet neighbour-hood, with a private drive, but we are within walking distance to the beach, the cycle path, local vineyards and shops. No need to use the car for your visit, the bus to Exeter is at the end of the road and the beautiful estuary train journey winds its way to Exeter (and further) through Lympstone and Topsham.

Why not enjoy our famous floating cafe out on the River Exe taking the water taxi to enjoy a seafood lunch or supper. Book very early!

What makes this property unique

Proximity to the beach, public transport nearby, off-street parking.
