The nursery is built from two beautiful Victorian villas linked by a modern glass atrium. As with all our nurseries the interiors are furnished with natural wooden furniture and high-quality resources to stimulate curiosity and open-ended play. There is a stunning children’s kitchen and bistro dining area and a hall equipped with a stage and indoor climbing feature. There is some limited staff parking, but the nursery is very well served by public transport with buses running regularly along all the nearby routes, as well as being just 2 minutes from Redland train station with local lines and a link to Temple Meads.
