From City to Sea 

The Exe Estuary meanders from the cathedral city of Exeter to the coastal town of Exmouth, past quaint riverside villages and beautiful countryside. The RSPB have two nature reserves located on the Exe Estuary, with the area being a site of international importance for wading birds.

 scenery to

be found in the South West"

Darts Farm is conveniently located half way between the city and sea offering a perfect starting and fishing point. From Darts Farm, you can follow the trail north through Topsham towards Exeter Quay, or south to the sea at Exmouth, passing through the pretty village of Lympstone on the way.
