Our hut is ideal for sleepovers or as a base for Groups  – being just a 20 minute walk into Exeter City Centre and less than 5 minutes from Heavitree Park.

The main area of the hut measures 10m x 7.5m.

The Hut has two toilets (one of which is an accessible toilet), and tables and chairs are available for use.

The Hut is situated in a residential area. Parking availability will depend on the time of day as the immediate parking directly around the hut is residents parking. 2 hour spaces and non permit parking spaces can be located on road a short walk from the hut.
