How to book cheap train tickets from Salisbury to Exeter

Season tickets for frequent travellers
Regular commuters travelling between Salisbury and Exeter - whether weekly, monthly, or annually - can benefit greatly from season tickets. Season tickets allow unlimited travel between both stations within specific time periods, offering substantial savings and eliminating the need to purchase individual tickets for every trip.

Travel during Off-Peak train times
For a quieter, better-value trip, try to travel during Off-Peak hours rather than the busiest weekday periods. Although exact times can vary between train companies, the general rule is to avoid the 6:30 AM–09:30 AM and 4:00 PM–7:00 PM windows. At weekends and on bank holidays, Off-Peak pricing typically applies throughout the entire day.

Group travel deals
Travelling with a group of 3 to 9 people? Most train companies offer group discounts, allowing you to save up to 1/3 on standard fares. This makes journeys from Salisbury to Exeter more budget-friendly for families, friends, or colleagues travelling together.

Book in advance
Advance tickets, usually released up to 12 weeks before travel, can save you up to 61% on journeys from Salisbury to Exeter when booked at least 1 week in advance. Savings exclude Anytime fares, and are subject to route availability.
