A stay in a bed and breakfast in Exeter can be lazy and leisurely. There are so many great restaurants, shops and cultural sites that it’s easy to pass a week meandering around the city and watching the world go by. But you can also make your holiday full of adventure.

In and around the city you’ll find some incredible activities that will inject excitement into your stay in your bed and breakfast in Exeter.

• Turn Into Tarzan.
Nobody’s suggesting you swing from vines in a loincloth and wrestle crocodiles with your bare hands, but a visit to Go Ape will unlock your inner wild man (or woman) in no time. To get there from your bed and breakfast in Exeter requires a drive, but is well worth the effort. You’ll be strapped into a harness and then ascend into the tree tops to make your way around daring aerial assault courses that will spike your adrenaline.

• Hit The Water.
Few aquatic sports are as exhilarating as kitesurfing. Essentially wind surfing but harnessing the power of the wind to execute more daring acrobatics (when you’re sufficiently experienced), kitesurfing is fast and intense. You can get lessons at Edge Watersports in Exmouth, which can be reached from your bed and breakfast in Exeter by train or bus. The lessons are progressive, starting out on the beach before moving into the water and then incorporating the kite. You’ll need several lessons before you’re zipping along the waves, but once you do the feeling is incredible.

• Experience A Cliffhanger.
If you’ve ever fancied trying your hand at rock climbing but aren’t sure where to start then take a trip down to Clip N Climb. Situated on the quay area this indoor climbing centre is a short walk from your bed and breakfast in Exeter. Inside you’ll find climbing walls to suit all abilities and you can have a taster session where you’ll be guided through the basics by a qualified instructor. You can then attempt some bouldering and abseiling if you want to mix things up a little.

• Explore The Exe.
The Exe runs right through Exeter and out to sea at nearby Exmouth. If you hire a canoe from Saddles & Paddles you can take a trip along the Exe, stopping off at the Double Locks pub along the way for a drink and lunch. This is a great way to explore the countryside on the edges of the city from a new perspective, and definitely an experience not to be missed when staying at a bed and breakfast in Exeter.

Make your stay at a bed and breakfast in Exeter a memorable one by booking in some time on one of these exciting activities.
