The Wyboston Lakes complex/campus is centrally located in between Milton Keynes and Cambridge just off the A1 with easy transport access.
The Wyboston Lakes campus offers two distinct separate meeting venues – the Woodlands Event Centre and the Willows Training Centre as well as an entirely separate Waterfront Hotel offering accommodation, golf, spa and restaurant (aimed more towards the leisure guest), and a separate, standalone, multi-functional sports centre/fitness centre.
The hotel website and social media sites position Wyboston Lakes as a multi-purpose campus with the Waterfront hotel, The Woodlands Event Centre and The Willows Training Centre positioned as separate entities. The leisure facilities are extensive but are connected to the hotel and not integral to the meetings and events proposition, with the occasional use of images from the front of the hotel with the lakes in view. Links used in registration should be provided with the meeting venues.
Wyboston Lakes site is directly and approximately 60 miles north of London, halfway between Milton Keynes and Cambridge, with a direct and regular train service to St Neots, taking 60 minutes from Kings Cross St Pancras.
Located just off the A1, and close to the A14, J13 of the M1 and J13 of the M11, Wyboston Lakes stands within a business park-style setting surrounded by lakes and a golf course. Although the Y Spa and golf course may be a concern for some, a meeting held at either the Woodlands Event Centre of the Willows Training Centre can be totally self-contained and without the broader leisure facilities affecting the meeting delegate.
Bedford is 12 miles away and Cambridge c.18 miles is where Cambridge Science Park (the home of several well-known healthcare companies) is located.
The 103 bedrooms in the Waterfront Hotel, provide guests with an Espresso machine and The White Company toiletries but could be removed if considered a compliance issue.
The service levels are consistent with venues suitable for healthcare meetings and events. There is no sign that the venue attempts to use service and a guest-to-staff ratio to leverage luxury impressions.
This venue is located to the West of a city renowned for its historic and leisure attractions however, the venue is located some distance from these areas and has minimal impact on the venue’s business proposition. To attract the weekend leisure market this venue may promote its facilities and nearby activities. These supplement its business services, which can stand alone and are only modestly impacted by facilities and activities aimed toward weekend guests.
Within the Waterfront Hotel, there is the Y Spa however, the hotel and spa are a minimum of 250 meters away from the Woodlands Event Centre and the Willows Training Centre, and delegates would only be exposed to it if Waterfront Hotel bedrooms need to be used as overflow, or there is potentially time within the agenda.
The Fitness Centre is also located in a separate building and at least 200 metres away from either meeting facility.
