Exeter has a brand new shopping centre and an abundance of restaurants, cafes and bars. It is a city full of contrasts, big designer shops can be found in the High Street and the Princesshay Quarter , there are specialist shops too along the cobbled streets around the Cathedral and Gandy Street. Exeter is also the southwest cultural centre with a year round programme of festivals to entertain and inspire. Enjoy the very best in music, drama, and film at lively venues like The Phoenix, Barnfield and Northcott Theatres. There are ten golf courses within a 40 minute radius, with tennis and coarse fishing nearby. There are also many National Trust properties and gardens, castles, ruins and old railways. Seek out the vineyards, cheese making, pottery and crystal glass production. Visit Cornwall, the Eden Project and the Lost Gardens of Heligan, all just 75 minutes away. There's even a traditional summerhouse, ideal for entertaining late into the summer evenings. Higher Thornwood was used as a setting in the film Deep Feelings, by Rosamunde Pilcherr, for German TV.
