Jul 19, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### hidden jewel This apartment is newly renovated, and done so very tastefully. As such it is also perfectly clean. It has classic small town English charm and is quiet. It has partial views of the river. It is in a good location for walks to town or along the river (very pretty). We recommend both the town and this apartment and hope to return some day. The host was available and friendly. ##### gregory m. Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jackie B. Dec 2, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Exeter Xmas shopping weekend. Lovely house situated by the river Exe within a few minutes walk of city centre and Exeter Xmas market. Parking situated two minute walk away across the road. House beautifully clean, comfortable and warm. The only downside was that my friend and I are short and had difficulty reaching the glasses, cups etc (no step stool), otherwise the kitchen area has all the amenities you could wish for. If you don’t want to cook then the “Mill on the Exe” is right next door. We would both recommend this property and hope to be back again sometime. ##### Jackie B.
