Basingstoke and Deane Borough Council - Development Manager

Network Rail Campus

The council sold a site to Network Rail to enable the development of combined National Training Centre and Regional Operating Centre. The scheme was delivered by Network Rail and completed in 2015.

A new Village Hotel opened at Basing View in early 2020, bringing new amenities to the park. The 153-bedroom hotel has a gym, swimming pool, sauna and steam room, a group cycle studio with Les Mills workouts and a wide choice of fitness classes. There is also a Village Bar and Grill providing all-day dining, an on-site Starbucks coffee shop, conference facilities and co-working space. Village Hotels agreed a 250-year lease with the borough council and invested £20 million in the hotel which has created more than 100 new permanent jobs. Funding for the ground levelling of the site where the Village Hotel is located, was provided by the Enterprise M3 LEP.
