We are the UK’s only permanent visitor centre designed specifically to meet the needs of self builders, renovators and home improvers. We have 3 full size exhibition houses on permanent display, as well as interactive educational zones guiding you through every stage of a homebuilding project. Explore different types of foundations, traditional and modern wall systems, the latest finishes and much more in our New Build Journey. Our full-scale Renovation House takes you through the journey of a major renovation project tackling many common issues that you will encounter when improving an existing property. The large Trade Village showcases over 200 exhibitors, offering the latest innovative products and services. On the second Friday of every month, many of our exhibitors will be at their displays to engage with you during our informal and relaxed ‘market days’. Whether you''re just starting out on a self build, or are looking to improve your existing home, our exhibitors are here to share their knowledge and assist you in making informed decisions for your project. Every Market Day features a free guided tour of our new build educational zone with our technical advisors and free ‘Design and Architecture’ Sessions, providing 25 minute 1:2:1 consultations with an experienced Architectural Professional providing advice on how to shape your home, including interior design and external landscaping*. If you are frustrated with the existing layout of your home, need more space but don’t want to move, or perhaps have some self build ideas in mind but need some advice before putting them onto paper, our experienced professionals are here to chat design and constructions options with you. *Please note, to avoid disappointment on the day, appointments with an Architectural Professional must be booked in advance by emailing reception@nsbrc.co.uk or calling on 0345 223 4455.
