Much of the village is designated to a conservation area of thatched houses and cottages with St Mary and All Saints Church, the Royal Oak pub, village shop/post office and the highly regarded primary school. Exeter city centre is just seven miles away, with its first class shopping and entertainment choices, and excellent choice of schooling. Schools in Exeter include the independent Exeter Cathedral School and St. Wilfrid’s School, as well as the outstanding-rated Exeter School and Exeter College. Exeter’s four mainline stations provide regular services towards London and the surrounding towns and cities. There is also good bus services to Exeter and the surrounding villages.
