You have to be very fit to cycle into the town centre, it is very hilly.


Are you near a bus route Swim?
You could use your bus pass if that's easier than trying to park in town.

If we go to Exeter, it will always cost a minimum of about £3.30 for a quick shop. Spend the day there and you are talking up to £15.

Hi

Yes I am nearish, but still to far for me to walk with shopping at the moment Mups.

The Bus Station is in a very awkward place, down by the river, not ideal and some distance away from those shops I wish to visit.
