Our Portsmouth office has a number of hot-desk options and will also be where you come for your introductory Welcome Session. The office is close to the M27 and has plenty of parking. On your first day in the office, you will need to go to our Tech Bar on the Ground Floor to obtain your pass. Just buzz on arrival for someone to let you in and show you the way.
We have a number of options around us for lunch, the quickest is a cafe within Selco next door, or within a 10 min walk (few mins drive) is a Tesco Superstore, Subway, Costa, KFC, McDonalds and Greggs. A Co-op and Starbucks is also within walking distance, a bit further but more scenic next to a lake!
If you need to arrange accommodation, the nearest hotels are The Village Hotel, Portsmouth and Premier Inn (Port Solent).
