Why Bisham Abbey?

If buildings could speak, Bisham Abbey would have a fascinating story to tell. The 800 year old Abbey was once a home for the English nobility and aristocracy and is now one of the UK's National Sports Centres.  Mentioned in the Doomsday Book, Bisham Abbey also played host to Henry VIII and the exiled Elizabeth I who governed for a short period from the suite now known as the Elizabethan Room.  Bisham Abbey now provides training grounds and a centre of excellence not only for the country's leading sportsmen and women but also the local community.

Bisham Abbey prides itself in 'Connecting Leisure to the Community' and its facilities are therefore open to the public not just the elite. Football pitches, astroturf, golf course, tennis and squash court, 90 station gym and aerobic classes are all available to the public to book. Bisham Abbey also has years of experience in offering Fabulous Wedding Receptions and civil ceremonies, conference and corporate events, party facilities and superb budget Accommodation.

Bisham Abbey is used as a prestigious training venue for over 20 different sports and organisations including the English Institute of Sport, England Hockey, WIN Tennis Academy and the England Football and Rugby Associations.

Located midway between Junction 4 of the M40 and Junction 8/9 of the M4, Bisham Abbey is ideally situated for access from London, Heathrow, Southeast and the Midlands.  Our nearest airport is Heathrow a mere 30 minute drive away and our nearest train station is Marlow just a short five minutes away.
