Set in Exeter within 6.4 km of Sandy Park Rugby Stadium and 27 km of Newton Abbot Racecourse, Melbury Rooms & Studios offers rooms with free WiFi. It is located 14 km from Powderham Castle and provides a shared kitchen. Tiverton Castle is 23 km away and Castle Drogo is 27 km from the guest house. Fantastic location - pleasantly situated opposite a park, but within walking distance of town centre and all amenities. Also, I was able to wash and dry my clothes.
