We look forward to welcoming you!

The University of Exeter always looks forward to welcoming the great variety of conferences from both the UK and overseas, who enjoy staying on campus during the vacations.

Offering a choice of two stunning campuses, both close to the City centre, railway station and airport, they also provide an excellent base to explore the surrounding areas of Devon.

The University's uniquely beautiful Streatham Campus creates a superb learning environment, described by The Times as 'the best gardened campus in Britain' and in The Independent as having 'a sublime setting'. The Streatham Campus is built around a large country estate which meanders over 250 acres of landscaped parkland, woodland, lakes, streams and gardens.

The St Luke's campus is a smaller, self-contained campus, based around an attractive lawned quadrangle and offers a more compact site, which appeals to many of our clients.

Both campuses have an extensive choice of conference and exhibition areas, offering organisers a range of facilities that are second to none.

Conference and Accommodation facilities at a glance:

* A vast selection of meeting rooms accommodating from 8 to 1400 delegates
* Multi-purpose Business and Exhibition Centre with adjacent fixed Lecture Theatres
* Further Lecture Theatres and Exhibition space available across campus
* Comprehensive Audio-visual / IT resources with full technical support if required
* Video Conferencing
* Choice of dining rooms, the largest seating up to 600 for formal events
* 1050 en-suite bedrooms across both campuses

Testimonials

From Sophie Lock, Cogent Events, the event title was “Low Carbon Homes” 05/06/18:

“Very responsive team, Accommodated any changes to our requirements promptly and efficiently. Booking contract updated each time, which provided a clear summary of the latest situation. Everyone in Reed Hall was helpful, friendly and efficient. We couldn’t have asked for better support beforehand and on the day.”
