Testimonials
“The venue was superb as it filled a wide range of needs perfectly. The setting and accommodation left the teachers and staff in no doubt that they were valued and looked after.”
“The facilities were equally spot on for the inputs, workshops and lead presentations, with excellent sized rooms and all needs promptly and efficiently provided for. The staff were friendly, helpful and unobtrusive providing all that was needed to ensure that the event was a success. The opportunity to give delegates a very different option of an evening workshop in Pottery or Silk Painting was a real high spot for everyone and unique.”
“Having stayed in very good hotels on previous occasions the team were very clear in assessing West Dean as far better, with real character and charm.”

FAT FACE
“Lincoln's Inn has been holding an annual weekend course at West Dean College since 1990 and this has become an integral part of the Inn's programme for its student members. West Dean has consistently provided the ambience and quality of service that the Inn requires; so much so that, since 2006, two courses are now held each year at the College.”
