Whitestone Park
Around four miles from Exeter City centre is a small village called Whitestone (pronounced Whitstone). In Whitestone you’ll find this gorgeous park with some epic views, complete with parking and toilets.
To get there, take the Okehampton road from Exe Bridges and carry on going up Redhills and through Nadderwater. On the road through Whitestone, there is a village Hall on the left (coming from Exeter) and behind said hall you’ll find Whitestone Park.
It has picnic tables, swings and climbing frame, monkey bars and all sorts, and while the kids play you can relax (maybe) and take in the rolling countryside around Exeter.
There is also a short walk around the park for dogs but it probably isn’t buggy friendly!

![Come with me for breakfast at The Ley Arms [AD, gifted]
The other day I joined my lovely friend @lauren_heath_pa from @diningdevon at the @leyarms for brekkie.
☀️It’s a gorgeous pub a short drive from Exeter in Kenn. Beautifully decorated with plenty of fairy lights, it also has a gorgeous sun trap of a garden.
I had the eggs Benedict which was well worth breaking my fast for. The ley Arms also have boutique accomodation making it a great place for a cheeky getaway.

![Overnight Spa Break at @ibisstylespaignton [AD, gifted]
If you’re looking for a local escape, Ibis Styles in Paignton is a great option.
Just a short drive from Exeter to the Devon Riviera, this seaside break offers everything you need for a relaxing getaway.
🏨 The Stay Ibis Styles sets the tone for a chill break with its modern yet cosy decor, contemporary art, and comfy seating. The friendly staff made check-in a breeze!
🛏️ The rooms are all about comfort and relaxation. My room had a comfy bed, and a gorgeous sea view. The blend of modern style and coastal charm made it the perfect place to unwind after a day of pampering.
🍔 The hotel’s restaurant serves American diner-style meals like burgers, calamari, and loaded fries, plus a full dessert menu with waffles, milkshakes, and ice cream.
💆♀️ The highlight of my stay was the spa, run by the fantastic Mel (an Exeter girl). Mel, an expert in Oncology massage and holistic therapy, made my experience incredibly relaxing. I had a back, neck, and shoulder massage and a facial, both expertly administered. The spa’s calming decor, soothing music, and aromatic scents created a tranquil atmosphere.
🏋️♀️ The Gym There’s also a gym, free for hotel patrons and available for locals with a small fee.
This spa break was just what I needed after a few tough months.
