Nelson House: ASE’s Study Centre
The ASE study centre is located in the heart of Bath, within 20 minutes walking distance of all of our student residences.
Nelson House is a refurbished Georgian (eighteenth-century) town house, and is named for Admiral Lord Nelson, who stayed here - in what is now the Ruiz Seminar Room - during his frequent visits to the city.
ASE inhabits all six floors of this historic building, which houses classrooms, a small library, a student common room, a courtyard garden and all staff offices.
Nelson House is your base in Bath, a place where you can always find a warm welcome and a friendly face. The ASE staff are easily available for advice and support; we publish a weekly news bulletin to keep you informed about what's going on at ASE, in Bath and the surrounding area; and an emergency mobile (cell) phone is in operation 24 hours a day.




“Everyone at ASE knew us by name and they did their best to make us feel welcome and at home. It was incredibly reassuring to have such a wonderful support system, and looking back, that has to be one of the most meaningful things to me about ASE.”
