The Devon Heritage Centre is just outside Exeter at Sowton where the Met Office is. There is a bus service that goes there. Sowton used to be a village but Exeter is now swallowing it up. The vicar there in the 1960s was father of a school friend of mine.
Julie, OH and I stayed nearby at Clyst St Mary in June and ended up driving around there by accident.
According to the Stagecoach website it only takes 11 minutes from Exeter Bus Station to the Heritage Centre, so you would be better off staying in Exeter. They are redeveloping the bus station but it looks as though the Paris Street bus station will be open until the new site has been completed.
I haven't looked at the website yet.
