| Events in Woodbury | 10 Places to Stay

Woodbury is a pleasant village in East Devon, home to just over eight hundred people, and yet only seven miles from Exeter. The village church of St Swithun’s is a legacy from the 13th Century and has an impressive tower. Walkers and lovers of nature will long to stay outside where a patchwork of green countryside beckons, or there is always miles of Heathland to enjoy at Woodbury Common, climb to the highest point to discover prehistoric Woodbury Castle, where Artists and Photographers should take up position for stunning views across the Exe Estuary. If wandering around a Museum sounds tempting there is Topsham Museum housed in a clutch of 17th Century buildings, or maybe Exmouth Museum will please, where intriguing exhibits are proudly displayed. If architectural delights are top of the list, then it has to be Exeter Cathedral, whose Magnificent Norman towers command the skyline, inside the breath stealing vaulted ceiling is the longest in England. On a smaller scale there is A La Ronde which houses many memories, and railway enthusiasts will be contented at Great Exmouth 00 Railway, whose fantastic models travel through intricately detailed locations, or if animals, thrilling rides, and fun are desired Crealy Park will place smiles firmly on faces.
