On the rare occasion this may happen we can not guarantee a particular desk or space for our hot desk members. This is the service we provide for our dedicated desk members. You are welcome to utilise our business lounge for casual working or ask one of our team re: dedicated desk membership.

What is the difference between hotdesk and dedicated desks?
With hotdesk membership you can just grab a seat and work anywhere within the hotdesk and business lounge area. Dedicated desks give you a dedicated space which is all your own with a locker.
Will I have to sign a contract?
One of our major benefits it that we don't believe in you needing to sign for long term contracts.
For private offices a one months rent security deposit is required and all rent is collected one month in advance. All payments are for a full calendar month so if you join us on 14th August you will be required to pay a months security deposit and six weeks advance rent to take you to the end of September. Your membership will then cease on 30th September. However if you wish to continue your membership you will be required to pay for Octobers membership by 25th August and then the 25th of every proceeding month to ensure that your membership continues. If your membership is not paid by this date we will actively sell your space for occupation the day after your membership expires.
Can I have my post directed here?
Yes! as a member you can use our address and we will do post runs so if you need anything posting just let us know.
You can also take a membership which is just a postal address for £49 per month plus the cost of forwarding post and parcels or £59 a month to have this service plus your registered address here.
