Why Choose to Board at Holmewood House?

Boarding builds independence, confidence and friendships
Children who board gain so much more than a place to stay. They learn to balance independence with responsibility, grow in confidence, and build friendships that last a lifetime. Holmewood House boarders are part of a vibrant, supportive community that celebrates individuality while encouraging every child to take part.
Academic stretch and 120+ co-curricular activities

With over 120 co-curricular activities available, every pupil finds a passion to pursue – whether on the sports field, in robotics, in music, or through creative arts. Boarding gives pupils the freedom to immerse themselves without the rush of travel or daily commuting.
A modern boarding house with countryside views
Our newly refurbished boarding house combines the modern comforts children need with the character of our historic Grade II listed mansion.
