Feeling a little rough? A sunlit saunter through Exeter's historic Northernhay Gardens is a great way to get some hangover-busting fresh air so you can start feeling fabulous again. There's a lot of local history behind the sights you'll see as you make your way around this pretty area, but you don't really need to pay attention to appreciate the beautifully well-kept plant life. P.S. Sir Stafford Northcote's statue takes a fabulous selfie!
