The hosts recorded their 12th consecutive triumph of the season and head of women's rugby Sean Lynn hailed his side's character after losing both Gwen Grabb and Alex Matthews to injury.
"That was a huge win for us today," he said.
"This Exeter side are a very strong outfit. They had a point to prove coming up here today. For us to get a bonus point win after a six-day turnaround is very, very pleasing and it just goes to show the character of this squad.
"They worked so hard on the pitch, off the pitch and the character of this group is just quality." Lynn's side got off to the best possible start when they opened the scoring in the sixth minute through Emma Sing following Alex Tessier's yellow card for tackling a player off the ball.

Dupont & Co need to take on the very best
