    Liked: The best apartment we have ever stayed in! My husband and I stayed here for our wedding, and it was truly perfect. The hosts were incredibly kind, welcoming, and friendly. The property was beautiful, spotless, and very well maintained. The garden was especially stunning and even more beautiful than it appears in the photos. We had a wonderful time and created unforgettable memories during our stay. A special thank you to David and Anita for their hospitality and for making our stay so memorable. We highly recommend this property and would love to return in the future.

    Disliked: Everything is perfect!

    I recommend St James to anyone hoping for a beautiful, comfortable touchdown near the city

    Liked: the hosts left delicious bread, eggs, local honey, and milk in the fridge. There was even a bottle of wine. The b&b was immaculately clean, bright, and comfortable, with an enclosed garden off the sunroom. Hosts were in easy reach for any questions. The house was on a quiet street close to the city center and restaurants (hosts made suggestions for good places to eat). All in all, a remarkable place to stay.

    Disliked: Attention to detail was very thoughtful. Everything was perfect.

    Liked: We had a truly wonderful stay at this accommodation. The location is absolutely awesome — very close to the High Street, yet tucked away from the bustle, offering a calm, quiet, and very private setting. It’s the perfect balance of convenience and peace. The house has two bedrooms, and both were extremely comfortable. We enjoyed fantastic quality sleep throughout our stay, helped by the serene neighbourhood. The presence of two bathrooms was also very useful — even though there were only three of us, it made getting ready effortless and ensured our days started smoothly. One of the most delightful aspects of the stay was the backyard. Although the cold and rain meant we didn’t use it as much as we would have liked, feeding the birds was a real joy. Using the bird feed provided, I spotted over 10 different species of birds right in the backyard — a truly special and unexpected experience. The kitchen deserves special mention. It was not a namesake kitchen — it was genuinely fully functional. Every utensil imaginable was available, from high-quality cups and pans to bakeware and equipment that allowed us to cook and bake with ease. The quality of everything stood out. The kitchen had an oven, dishwasher, toaster, kettle — you name it, it was there. The house itself is warm, inviting, and full of character. It is beautifully decorated, with plenty of books, board games, and thoughtful details in every nook. Extra comforters and throws were available throughout the house, perfect for lounging, and the central heating was absolutely fantastic. Adding to the charm, the house was decorated for Christmas — a small Christmas tree, lovely lights inside the house, and even lights in the backyard created a truly festive and cosy atmosphere. The many plants around the house added even more character and warmth to the space. The thoughtful personal touches really made us feel welcome — a bottle of wine on arrival, along with milk, eggs, and bread, was such a generous gesture.

    Disliked: None.. just perfect.

    Liked: Great amenities, and such a nice place to stay! A perfect location that was close to the University of Exeter, and easy walking distance into town. The place was absolutely spotless and beds and pillows were very comfortable. We will definitely come back and highly recommend!!
