We understand that residential colleges can never replace home but we make every effort to create a welcoming, family environment where students feel safe and comfortable.

Pengwern College is set in 29 acres of beautiful North Wales countryside near the historic village of Rhuddlan, close to the popular resort towns of Prestatyn and Llandudno. The college benefits from good rail / bus links and road networks.

Our accommodation provides the necessary step between leaving home and community living that most young adults take during their transition to adulthood.

Learners can live on campus and as their confidence grows they can progress to our off-site community accommodation. We encourage learners to personalise their bedrooms with posters and photos and take responsibility for keeping their rooms tidy.

Residential students work towards practical living skills, healthy living, personal fiance, improving manner and conduct, personal safety awareness, accessing local facilities, effective communication and working as part of a team.
