The best time to go to Ottery St Mary is during the spring or autumn months, specifically from May to June or September to October, for pleasant weather and fewer crowds.During these periods, the weather is generally mild and agreeable, great for exploring the town and surrounding Devon countryside. You'll avoid the peak summer tourist season, which means a more relaxed experience at local attractions and eateries. The natural beauty of the area, particularly the River Otter and nearby woodlands, is at its most appealing with blooming flowers in spring or the vibrant colours of autumn foliage.Couples looking for a peaceful getaway will find these months ideal. You can enjoy strolls along the riverbanks, visit Cadhay Manor without large groups, and dine at local pubs at a leisurely pace. The reduced number of visitors allows for a more intimate experience of Ottery St Mary's historic charm.For travellers interested in local events, visiting in late October is particularly special for the annual Tar Barrels tradition, though this is a very busy time.
