to get started.

Super efficient staff, lovely meal and breakfast. Room comfy and clean.

Victoria, United Kingdom

Very accommodating to our child. The pub had high chairs and a children’s menu.

Paige, United States of America

The family room wasn't huge for three people, but it suited us just fine. Lots of parking, which we appreciated, and no road noise even though you are close to main roads. Very good breakfast, but the lack of internet was problematic for us.

Sarah, United States of America

Friendly,helpful staff. Good food and drink (needs Stella though) great location especially for the airport.

Lynn, United Kingdom

Rooms are a good size, the food at the put is outstanding and they have real ale! Perfect!

Becky, Ireland

The location was good as taking my daughter to Exeter University and it was a 10 minute onward journey in the morning. Room was aesthetically pleasant and the food in the pub was good.

Emma, United Kingdom

The bed was very comfortable and the room is very cosy!

Sue, United Kingdom

Great breakfast and enjoyable evening meal. A block of four rooms built to the side on the eighteenth century inn, plenty of car parking, pretty basic but OK for the price.

Geoffegginton, United Kingdom

rooms an annex to the pub were a very high standard.Friendly pub and food excellent.

Patrick, United Kingdom

I loved the skylight in the room. There was a hairdryer and iron so I didn't have to ask for them. The room had everything I needed 🍻

One of our best sellers in Exeter! These superior rooms are in a newly converted stable block, and offer comfort and relaxation. The Blue Ball is only 6 minutes from Exeter Airport.

Facilities include 32-inch flat-screen HD TVs, power showers and WiFi.

Exeter city center is a 10-minute drive away. The Ball is conveniently located for Exeter Chiefs’ rugby stadium and Devon’s glorious beaches.

Restaurant food was disappointing
We were a family of four traveling through to Cornwall after camping for a few nights and needed a stop off for the night. The beds were very comfortable and the shower fantastic and all was very clean. Unfortunately dinner in the restaurant was disappointing... my lamb was inedible but Mediterranean salad it came with was good. The other meals were also not as expected but maybe it was a bad night. I would consider staying again fir the great room at a great price.
