Where is Loughborough?

Located in the small market town of Loughborough in the Leicestershire countryside, our welcoming Loughborough campus is set on 523 acres and offers lots of green open spaces, landscaped gardens, woods, and is also home to the country’s largest concentration of world-class sporting facilities. All of this is interspersed with academic buildings and state-of-the-art facilities.

Due to its central location within the country, Loughborough is only a short train ride away from London, Derby, Leicester and Nottingham. Plus, it’s only a short 15-minute taxi drive away from East Midlands Airport which means you can hop on a plane at the weekend and explore what the rest of Europe has to offer.*
