What a great place if the sun is out! You can quietly sit, watch, and soak up the lovely atmosphere that the Cathedral Close has to offer.
The period buildings within the historic Close, Yard and Martin's Lane are occupied by restaurants, bars and numerous shops that sell town & country fashions, crafts, books, paintings, and antiques.
St Peter's Cathedral and its two magnificent Norman towers dominate the Close. The Cathedral is one of Exeter's most popular attractions and is included within the Red Coat Guides' Cathedral Close & Palace Garden tour.
The Close is located just off the high street and can be also easily reached from most areas including the Princesshay and Guildhall centres.
