Boarding Accommodation
At Thornton College we have a range of accommodation for various age groups in two main boarding Houses; Barton and Chastillon. For the majority of students, boarding is upstairs in our Manor House in large bedrooms with stunning views, lots of space, high ceilings and natural light.
Accommodation for girls in Year 13 is in The Villa, a beautiful detached house located in the school grounds.
Please note: Rooms and accommodation options vary every academic year depending on the number of boarders and nationalities in the cohort of each year group.

THE VILLA
A villa, located within the school’s beautiful estate was converted into a new boarding house for Year 13 students. This development opened in September 2020.
Each Year 13 student has her own bedroom, with a single bed, cupboards and a study desk. There is also a communal kitchen and washing machine.
A House Mistress stays with the Year 13s and is on hand if needed. Essentially, girls in Year 13 learn how to be more independent and live with others before they take their next steps into University accommodation
