Devonshire Hall
This traditional 'Oxbridge' style hall has a long standing reputation for the welcoming and friendly atmosphere extended to its delegates. Situated in a quiet residential area just one mile from the main University campus, Devonshire Hall is ideal for self contained groups of up to 140 delegates.
The Main Conference Room can seat up to 140 delegates in a theatre style arrangement and there a selection of smaller rooms that are ideal for breakout sessions. All rooms are flat floored and have black out facilities. The Hall has an impressive choice of additional facilities including tennis, snooker and lounge bar.
"On behalf of all of us 'Ladies' who attended our Christmas Coffee Morning yesterday may I say a big THANK-YOU to you and all the staff at Devonshire who helped make it such a success. You are all so patient, kind and super-efficient. Yummee cakes, too!"
Gillian Andrews, Secretary to the University of Leeds Ladies' Club
The facilities were fantastic and the support we received from staff at the Hall of Residence was second to none. Not one person has uttered a word of complaint - testament in itself!”
Jim Chapman, North Rugby Youth U18
