About the venue

Dover College is an independent school on Effingham Crescent in Dover, with buildings dating back to the 12th century. Several of its historic spaces can be hired for events, alongside its sports facilities.

  • The Refectory: a 12th-century dining hall for indoor events, used for dinners and receptions of 40 to 120 guests.
  • The Chapel: a 12th-century monastic guest house, now used as a chapel.
  • The Close: a large lawn surrounded by historic buildings, for outdoor events.
  • Sports: a large sports hall on the main site, plus a sports ground and cricket ground off Folkestone Road.

Twelfth-century buildings in the centre of Dover make an impressive setting for an awards dinner, a reception or a corporate sports day.

The college does not publish prices online. For sports facilities, the Close, the Refectory and the Chapel, contact Alyce Bailey at baileya@dovercollege.org.uk.
