How to book cheap train tickets from Welshpool to Exeter
Travelling in off-peak train times

If your schedule allows for flexibility, choosing off-peak times for your trip from Welshpool to Exeter can result in significant cost savings.
Using the Railcard for 1/3 off

Split Tickets for greater savings
Splitting tickets involves buying separate, cheaper tickets for different parts of your journey on the same train instead of just one ticket for the entire trip.

This method is perfectly legal and often doesn’t require leaving your seat.
