Fareham is an attractive and prosperous market town near Portsmouth in Hampshire. Long a centre of trade and commerce, conference rooms in Fareham are kept busy with bookings. We at Holiday Inn Fareham, are particularly valued, combining the benefits of a fully-equipped business centre with the facilities of a residential hotel and leisure complex. Fareham is a pleasant mixture of new developments and heritage buildings. The latter include handsome Georgian houses that were once used to house officers from the Royal Naval Dockyard; Fareham is located at the north-west tip of Portsmouth Harbour. These links continue today with HMS Collingwood, (the Royal Navy training school, also an active fund-raiser for the RNLI) and a number of small maritime industries. The town also had a thriving pottery industry - remembered today in its distinctive bricks, tiles and chimney pots. "Fareham Reds" were shipped to numerous destinations - including London, where they were used to build the Royal Albert Hall. The pottery industry ground to a halt in the 1970s, but Fareham's long market tradition held it in good stead, and the town redeveloped as a centre for the retail and service industries. With good motorway links via the M27, and the major cities of Southampton and Portsmouth close by - as well as several other important towns, like Gosport and Portchester, the town thrives on both commerce and tourism. We at Holiday Inn Fareham are particularly well placed to serve both business and leisure customers. In a picturesque location in the Meon Valley, on the A27 and with easy access to the M27 and M25, we are easily reached by road, air or rail. As well being close to several large business parks, we offer easy access to Portsmouth and Southampton. We're also conveniently located for London delegates and those arriving via the Eurotunnel. The convenient location isn't the only reason people prefer booking conference rooms with us at Holiday Inn Fareham. Company bookings vary according to purpose, so finding a single venue that can offer a choice of seven meeting areas, in formats that seat from 2 to 140 delegates, is welcome indeed. Unlike some conference rooms in Fareham, our suites benefit from natural daylight and air conditioning, as well as internet access and other business services. Our extensive grounds can be used for anything from weddings to team-building events and staff training exercises. The maritime tradition of the Portsmouth and Fareham area extends to several charities. These include the RNLI and the Royal Navy Sailors' Fund, and several local heritage groups. Charities often book conference rooms in Fareham for meetings. However, when it comes to fund-raising events outside they often have trouble finding a suitable space. We at Holiday Inn Fareham will happily arrange both meeting rooms and use of our outdoor area for charities and other organisations. Fareham seamlessly blends modern developments like the Solent Business Park and Whiteley Village shopping centre, with cultural and historic attractions like Titchfield Abbey, which is located near us at Holiday Inn Fareham. It is a popular and attractive town that attracts much cultural and commercial interest. The result is that conference rooms in Fareham are constantly in demand.
