We have a range of conferencing and meeting room facilities across both our venues:

• Stunning 17th century surroundings across four rooms in our Manor House
• Free conference centre car park and wi-fi access

Rothamsted is uniquely situated to host a range of events. We are just 10 minutes from central St Albans and 10 minutes from London Luton International Airport and 25 minutes from London St. Pancras International. Our professional service means we can accommodate most needs.

    Great venue. Lovely spacious and comfortable auditorium. We went on a big walk around the campus on lunch break which was lovely and invigorating. Only small complaint was the ladies toilets had a hideous smell all day. I'm sure there were no toilet checks done.
