St Hilda’s College
St Hilda’s College was founded in 1893 and offers a unique and picturesque setting for your conference or event. It is set within stunning grounds running down to the River Cherwell, with beautiful views over the University of Oxford Botanic Garden, Christ Church Meadow and the spires of the city. The college is located at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, just off one of Oxford’s busy central transport hubs and is easily accessible by car and by public transport.
We offer an ideal venue for conferences and events; our facilities include training and teaching rooms, auditoria, and meeting and dining rooms of various sizes. Ranging from elegant and intimate, to the grandeur of Hall, we also provide a perfect location for private events, including wedding receptions, gala dinners and specialist themed Christmas parties. In the summer months, we have our own punts for hire, along with a variety of lawn games, suitable for family events or team-building workshops.
