Exeter College

Exeter College can offer an ideal setting for meetings, dinners and conferences across its two sites. The main college site is centrally located on Turl Street, and has peaceful quadrangles and beautiful gardens along with a variety of meeting rooms with internet access and good audio-visual facilities throughout. All meeting rooms may be hired for the half day, with or without meals or refreshments.

The newly-opened Cohen Quad offers state-of-the-art facilities including en-suite single bedrooms, an auditorium, a number of breakout rooms, a learning commons and a café, all in a stunning site designed by award-winning architect Alison Brooks. Located in Walton Street, Jericho and only 12 minutes’ walk from the main college site, this building is close to the railway station and the centre of Oxford. The Cohen Quad stands on the site of Ruskin College and it’s only the front façade that remains of the original building. During term the students enjoy this light and spacious building. In the vacations we can accommodate groups of up to 90 for week long programmes. The Auditorium is also a popular venue for concerts and other performances. A conference office can be provided for organisers.

We offer competitive rates for both residential and daily delegates and would be delighted to discuss your special requirements.  We take pride in being responsive to the needs of our guests and many return to us year after year. Old members are always assured of a warm welcome.

This venue offers facilities for hybrid/virtual meetings.
