University of Exeter
Stocker Road

Located on the University's Streatham Campus, the Peter Chalk Centre provides a modern, fully-equipped conference venue. The Streatham campus, the University’s largest site in Exeter, is built around a country estate overlooking the city and is readily acknowledged as one of the most beautiful in the country.

A Registered Botanic Garden, Streatham Campus is described by The Times as the ‘best-gardened campus in Britain' and by The Independent as having a "sublime" setting. The grounds feature many exotic trees and shrubs and with stunning views across the city to the sea at Exmouth. Many students say they simply fell in love with the campus when they came to visit – its lakes, parkland, woodland and gardens make it a very special place that offers a safe and enjoyable environment for study. All the teaching buildings, together with the sports park, the library, the shopping centre, restaurants, cafés and bars are within walking distance of each other.
