Hartpury College Prospectus

The county is sports mad, with Gloucester home to one of the biggest rugby clubs in the country. Fans, including Hartpury students, flock to Kingsholm Stadium week in week out and the city was a host venue for Rugby World Cup 2015.

If you love the outdoors and making the most of every day, then Gloucestershire is your kind of place. In recent years, Gloucester has seen millions invested in the Quays area with a new outlet shopping village, cafés, bars and restaurants and new cinema complex.

With the city just 10 minutes drive away, many Hartpury students make Gloucester their home.

In Cheltenham, the racecourse holds eight fixtures a year, with the Gold Cup week in March, plus the town has its own National League football club. You are also spoilt for choice when it comes to adventure sports with South Cerney water park, kayaking and rock climbing in the Wye Valley and the dry ski slope all within easy reach of the Hartpury campus.
