Redeveloped and reopened in 2022, we moved in to Southwold's Old Hospital as our permanent home in Spring 2023.
Our flexible and modern teaching space here includes a classroom to accommodate 50 students and 2 meeting rooms which cater for up to 14 students.
The Old Hospital includes a locally sourced café, where discounted group meals can be arranged on request.
Our 1st base in Southwold since 2017, we love the flexibility of the teaching spaces in the wonderfully retro and deceptively large Arts Centre.
Located next to Southwold's primary school on Cumberland Road, a range of local groups use the spaces in the building which include an impressive theatre hall - the perfect venue for larger GCSE cohorts.
Generally, parking nearby can be quite limited, however free on-street parking can often be found on nearby Stradbroke Road or Marlborough Road.
The town's main car park at the pier has over 250 spaces and is a 5-minute walk away. Alternatively, a second car park is found on Gardner Road on Southwold common.
From Southwold High Street - Turn down past the CO-OP supermarket onto Church Street, at the end of this road turn right and then immediately left towards the building with the blue Adnams sign. Continue past the public toilets and school on your left, the Southwold Arts Centre is the next building on your left. For the Old Hospital, take the next left through St Edmund's Green and we are straight ahead.
From Southwold pier - Heading South away from the pier turn inland to your right down Field Stile Road, continue across the junction with Marlborough Road before taking the next left onto Cumberland Road. Continue for 150 yards past the park and church yard. The Southwold Arts Centre is the next building on your right.
For the Old Hospital, continue down Field Stile Road from the seafront until the junction of Cautley Road on the right - the hospital is straight ahead.
