Directions

The Thatch is situated in the heart of the district of Exeter known as Exwick, just a minute's walk from the beautiful River Exe, the impressive Millers Bridge and the nearby Flowerpot playing fields, and just a short distance from the two main Exe Bridges, the city centre and the historical Quayside area.

Arriving on foot from the City Centre travel down Fore Street or along Alphington Street or Cowick Street to Exe Bridge Island, then follow the road signs to St. David's Station and walk along Bonhay Road as far as the pedestrian Millers Bridge on your left. Cross the bridge and the other bridge leading off it and bear right to pass Flowerpot Playing Fields until you reach the Civil Service Sports Club and Exwick Road. The Thatch is on your right. Alternatively, walk along the river path as far as Flowerpot Playing Fields then continue as above.

Arriving by road, from the direction of Crediton or Stoke Canon travel along the A377 Bonhay Road until you reach the St. David's Station level crossing. Cross the railway here and continue forwards, turning left at the junction into Exwick Road. The Thatch is approximately half a mile on your left.

From the M5 (junction 30) or the A30 eastbound follow the road signs to Exeter. At Alphington Cross junction (just before Sainsburys) take the first left exit to join Cowick Lane. Continue forwards for approximately two miles, passing through several junctions and sets of traffic lights. The Thatch will be evident on your right.
