Barnfield Life

Barnfield College has plenty to offer higher education students.

We are really proud of our facilities at Barnfield College and we're sure you'll love it here too.

No matter what you're into, there is always something going on at the college and plenty of places to meet friends around our bustling campus. Or, if you prefer somewhere a bit quieter, we have plenty of chilled-out areas where you can sit, read or just have a moment to yourself.

Eat!

When your body and mind need restoring, choose from Barnfield Eat Street - there's a variety of canteens, restaurants and cafes. Two hot spots, the Barnfield Brasserie and Café B at New Bedford Road Campus, are run by students and staff from the Hospitality and Tourism Department.

Call 01582 569646 to book a reservation.

Pamper yourself!

Or why not pamper yourself in our modern hairdressing, beauty and holistic salons? They offer the latest equipment and the best treatments and services, supervised by qualified staff, at competitive prices and are also open to the public.

To book an appointment call 01582 569590.

Sports Talk!

We also pride ourselves on our sports teams, too - Barnfield has great sports facilities and there is much more to come in the new build. Take your pick from our many teams, all competing on a regional level. Go Barnfield!

Learn!

While we want all our students to have fun and socialise, we're here to learn, so we've also made sure we have the best learning resources around, giving students easy access to print, audio, video and information-based technology material. There are learning resource areas for study and plenty of support back-up. Each campus has a common room and leisure facilities.

Students studying Foundation Degrees at Barnfield College are full members of both the College and of the University of Bedfordshire, so you'll get the best of both worlds. This means that you are able to use the library, computing and other facilities at both the College and the University to support your work.

In addition to the social facilities at the college, such as catering and recreational facilities, you are also able to use the University sports facilities, bars, refectories, etc, and join some of the many Students' Union clubs that are organised each year. Luton itself is a major town with plenty to offer including great pubs, clubs, restaurants, cinema, shops, sports facilities and rail, road and air transport links.

We want you to enjoy your time with us, and if you choose to continue to study locally after your two year Foundation Degree, you will be able to progress straight on to the final year of a relevant Honours Degree with the University of Bedfordshire.
