Basing View mixed-use business zone regeneration

Basing View is a 65-acre mixed-use business zone situated in the heart of Basingstoke, a short walk from the railway station, town centre, large shopping centre and award-winning park with large boating lake. It also benefits from a modern Village Hotel with a bustling restaurant and bar, pool and gym facilities.

Village Hotel Basingstoke

A programme of major redevelopment is transforming Basing View and opening up a wide choice of business space options for companies of all sizes.

One of the best connected and affordable business destinations in the south east, Basing View delivers an attractive combination of convenience, excellent road and rail links, a great working environment and access to a highly skilled workforce.

As the freeholder, the council is playing a key role in helping promote and stimulate new investment in the area and is committed to investing long term in Basing View.

The business zone is currently home to more than 180 national and international businesses as well as a growing SME community. It will soon also boast a private 5G network and a new state-of-the-art 5G Living Lab.
