The two campus sites, based at Hinkley and Bridgwater represent a superlative standard for worker accommodation, with a total of 1496 rooms in blocks of 34 and a central amenity building at each location.
It is to be operated by Somerset consortium HOST, bringing together more than 60 years’ combined domestic and international hotel and leisure experience.

Hinkley Point C is on the north Somerset coast in the south west of England and will sit alongside an operating nuclear power station, and one being decommissioned.
Marking a significant milestone in the revitalisation of our nuclear power industry, Hinkley Point C will make a major contribution to the UK’s move to reduce carbon emissions. The electricity it generates will avoid 9 million tonnes of carbon dioxide emissions a year, or 600 million tonnes over its 60-year lifespan.
