NPPL at unlicensed strip?

Hi,

I've been searching all over, and can find no definitive answer to this, so here goes.

I'm currently taking my NPPL at an unlicensed strip in a Eurostar EV97, and all is well - however, it's become apparent that once I gain my NPPL, I won't be able to, for example, hire a C172 (under 2000kg) and take some friends for a trip out, purely due to my license being gained at an unlicensed strip? So I'm not working towards the NPPL SSEA license I thought I was?

From what I have gleaned, I would come out with a NPPL (M) license, and I would need to do 3 hours with an instructor at a licensed field, is that correct?

Any advice is much appreciated!
