Regular Users of Ardingly College Venue
Ardingly College, with its superb sports and arts facilities, is one of the finest training, learning and performance venues in Sussex and the south east of England. The college lets some of its facilities to outside organisations in term-time when the College students do not require them, especially the swimming pool. In the College holidays, the opportunities for hire as a training and learning venue are far more extensive.
