Kingston Maurward Campus
Kingston Maurward Campus sits within 750 acres of rolling Dorset countryside, with lakes, parkland, wildlife and gardens that change beautifully with the seasons. Visitors often describe it as a hidden gem: peaceful, scenic and full of character.
Whether you’re exploring the Animal Park with family, wandering through formal gardens, or joining an outdoor adventure session, the campus offers a rare chance to reconnect with nature and enjoy wide open space.
The estate blends heritage and the natural landscape with a strong sense of community. Alongside our college spaces and public attractions, we host weddings, celebrations, conferences and a busy calendar of local events.
There’s always something to discover – from garden trails to equestrian competitions or water-based activities on the lake.
