Perfect for a vibrant, European-style, British summer!
January 5th 2019
As we head into Britain’s summer festival season in the new year what could be a more fitting place than Exeter Globe Backpackers?
Right in the heart of this vibrant city, with easy access to all the urban hip and trendy stuff; and only a stones throw from the amazing Devon countryside. There’s live music popping out all over the place with a full range of acts from local heroes to huge headliners like Olly Murs or Little Mix. In the evening, take a European-style promenade in the Cathedral or Queen Street Dining Quarters – where you’ll find so many tempting restaurants that you’ll make a promise to come back next year. After that its back to the Exeter Globe Backpackers, just as smart, modern and cool as you. Check out the double rooms!
This was my first time visiting Exeter, and I was blown away by how walkable and historic the city was. Here is what I (Bronia, social media manager at Independent Hostels) and my friend Lily (tiktok content creator at Independent Hostels) got up to at during our 48 hour stay.
