Who Short Stay Lets Suit Best

Our short stay accommodation is a great fit if you need:

  • Flexible dates – short notice, mid-week arrivals, variable lengths
  • More space than a hotel – kitchen/living area for longer stays
  • A local point of contact – for questions, access and support
  • A base near Exeter's key hubs – RD&E, University, City Centre, Marsh Barton, M5 access

If you're booking for work and need company invoicing, PO numbers or longer stays, see serviced accommodation in Exeter for corporate stays.

What You Can Expect in a Short Stay Let

Short stays should be easy. Depending on the property, your stay can include:

  • Furnished living space with cooking facilities
  • Bedding and essential setup ready for arrival
  • Wi-Fi (and workspace-friendly layouts where possible)
  • Simple check-in and clear house rules
  • Optional cleaning schedules for longer bookings (where available)

For longer stays, we can arrange additional cleaning, top-up supplies, or specific requirements. Just let us know what you need.

You may see "serviced accommodation" and "short stay lets" used interchangeably — both are fully furnished, flexible rentals. The difference is mainly branding: "serviced apartments" often describes corporate apart-hotels; "short stay lets" describes managed houses and flats like ours. For business stays requiring company invoicing, see our serviced accommodation page.

Popular Areas for Short Stays in Exeter

Choosing the right area makes a big difference. We frequently help guests find short stays near:

  • Exeter City Centre – walkable, great for restaurants and shopping
  • St David's / Station links – convenient arrivals and commuting
  • Heavitree / RD&E access – practical for hospital visits and staff
  • The Quays – waterside feel with easy access into town
  • Marsh Barton / M5 routes – useful for contractors and project work

Each area has its own character and price range. Let us know your priorities and we'll help you find the right fit.

How Short Stay Pricing Works

Short stay pricing depends on dates, length of stay, property type and guest numbers. In general, longer stays often work out better value per night than a few-night booking.

Send your dates and requirements and we'll confirm the best available options and total cost clearly (no guesswork).

Stay Type Typical Range Notes
Weekend break (2–3 nights) From £90–£150/night Higher rates during peak dates (graduation, events)
Weekly stay (7+ nights) From £70–£120/night Reduced nightly rate for longer bookings
Monthly stay (28+ nights) From £1,400–£2,200/month Best value for contractors and relocations

All prices are examples only and depend on the specific property, dates and availability. Bills, Wi-Fi and cleaning are typically included.

  1. Share your dates + guests + preferred area
  2. We confirm what's available and the total cost
  3. You book and receive arrival/check-in details
  4. You enjoy your stay with local support if you need it

Frequently Asked Questions

What counts as a "short stay let" in Exeter?

Short stay lets are flexible rentals typically from a few nights up to a few months, designed for temporary living rather than long-term tenancies.

Do you offer short stays for relocations or home renovations?

Yes — short stays are ideal if you're between homes, renovating, or waiting on a move-in date.

Can I extend my booking if plans change?

Often yes, subject to availability. If you think you may need to extend, tell us early so we can plan ahead.

Is parking included?

Some properties have parking, some rely on nearby options. We'll confirm what's available for the property you choose.

Do short stay lets include bills and Wi-Fi?

Many do, but it depends on the property and length of stay. We'll confirm exactly what's included before you book.

Are short stay lets cheaper than hotels in Exeter?

For longer stays, they can be better value because you're paying for a full living space rather than just a room.

Can you accommodate families visiting Exeter?

Yes — we can help match you to properties suited to couples, families or small groups depending on dates and availability.

Do you accept short-notice bookings?

When availability allows, yes. If you need something quickly, send your dates and we'll respond with options.

Are pets allowed?

Some properties may allow pets, others won't. Tell us upfront and we'll only suggest suitable options.
