Our St Albans Campus offers state-of-the-art facilities in a rural setting, with great transport links to St Albans and Hatfield.
Our St Albans Campus is home to award winning facilities set within acres of wide open countryside. The Discovery Centre and Sports Zone secured recognition from the Royal Institute of British Architects, a body that aims to recognise buildings that set the standard for great architecture in the UK.
This facility offers state of the art specialist workshops and design studios, a large indoor multi-sports hall, gym and virtual learning environment. The sports hall ranks as one of the largest in the county and is supported by brand new floodlit artificial pitches with public viewing spaces meaning all year round accessibility and capacity to support elite sport development.
The Hospitality & Catering facilities, including The Stables Restaurant , are the only training kitchens of their type available in this part of Hertfordshire and the restaurant is also open to the public for lunch and dinner.
