Finding an affordable coworking space is one of the most cost-effective ways to access a professional working environment without the financial commitment of a traditional office lease. Whether you’re a freelancer looking for somewhere to focus a few days a week, or a small business owner who needs a permanent base without long-term ties, flexible workspace gives you the freedom to work on your own terms. This guide breaks down the main pricing structures, what you get for your money, and why a coworking membership could be the smartest monthly spend you make.
Joining a coworking space in the UK typically costs anywhere from £50 to £300 per month, depending on the type of membership, location, and what’s included. At Orbit Spaces, membership starts from £50 per month* — giving you access to shared hub space across our North West locations, Wi-Fi, tea and coffee, and 25% off meeting room bookings.
That’s a professional workspace, a community of fellow professionals, and a tangible discount on meeting rooms, all for less than most people spend on a phone contract.
A coworking day pass in the UK generally costs between £10 and £35, depending on the location and facilities. At Orbit Spaces, a day pass costs £10 per day* — one of the most straightforward pricing structures you’ll find. You get access to the hub and reception shared spaces at any of our locations, with Wi-Fi, tea and coffee included. There are no hidden fees, no booking minimums, and no requirement to commit to anything longer term.
A Coworking Day Pass is ideal if you’re testing out coworking for the first time, need a professional space for a one-off day, or simply want somewhere to work away from the house without paying for a full month’s membership. At £10 a session, you’d break even on a monthly membership after just five visits.
This is where the real value starts to show. Monthly coworking memberships let you budget consistently, access more facilities, and build a genuine routine around a professional working environment. At Orbit Spaces, there are two membership tiers designed to suit different working patterns:
Orbit Spaces Member — £50 per month*
Our most flexible membership gives you access to the hub and reception shared space at any of our coworking locations up to five days per week. It includes Wi-Fi, tea and coffee, and 25% off all meeting room bookings. If you’re a freelancer or remote worker who wants a reliable, affordable base without being tied to a single desk, this is the membership built for you.
Fixed Desk Member — £150 per month*
For those who want something more permanent, a fixed desk membership gives you everything included in the standard membership, plus your own reserved desk complete with a monitor and laptop dock. You also get locker storage at no extra charge, and business address registration — which is a genuinely useful benefit for sole traders and small businesses who need a professional registered address without paying for a full office.
The step from £50 to £150 a month is significant, but so is what you gain. A reserved desk with a monitor and laptop dock removes the daily setup friction entirely — you arrive, sit down, and get straight to work. Business address registration alone is worth a considerable amount to anyone running a limited company or sole trader business from home.

Yes, for most freelancers, remote workers, and small teams, a coworking membership works out considerably cheaper than a traditional office lease once you account for all the real costs involved. A commercial lease isn’t just the rent figure – it comes with business rates, utility bills, building insurance, fit-out costs, IT infrastructure, cleaning, and dilapidations at the end of the term. Those costs add up quickly, and they’re all billed separately on top of whatever you’re paying per square foot.
A coworking membership removes virtually all of that overhead. You pay one monthly figure and everything is taken care of. For early-stage businesses and self-employed professionals, that simplicity has a real financial value that doesn’t show up in a headline cost comparison.
There’s also the flexibility argument. Coworking memberships have no long-term tie-in. You’re not signing a three-year lease, personally guaranteeing rent, or worrying about what happens if your business circumstances change. For anyone who needs a professional working environment without that level of commitment, a membership is a considerably smarter starting point.
A day pass gives you access to a coworking space for a single day with no ongoing commitment. A monthly membership gives you regular access for a fixed monthly fee, typically with additional benefits — at Orbit Spaces, that includes the 25% meeting room discount from the first month.
The tipping point is frequency. If you use a coworking space more than five times in a month, a membership almost always works out cheaper than paying for individual day passes. At Orbit Spaces, five day passes at £10 each comes to £50 — the same as a monthly Orbit Spaces Member subscription. Use the space more than five days a month, and the membership pays for itself. Use it more than fifteen days and you’re saving money compared to daily rates, while also getting the meeting room discount on top.
The North West is genuinely one of the best regions in the UK for affordable, high-quality coworking. Here at Orbit we operate across five North West locations, with 3 of those offering coworking space:
With a single Orbit Spaces membership, you can use any of the above locations as they have coworking available. So if your week takes you from Warrington to Manchester and back, your membership covers you throughout.
Orbit Spaces memberships are designed to give you everything you actually need to work productively. Here’s what’s included across the two main membership tiers:
| Day Pass (£10/day*) | Member (£50/month*) | Fixed Desk (£150/month*) | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Hub/shared space access | ✓ | ✓ (up to 5 days/week) | ✓ |
| Wi-Fi | ✓ | ✓ | ✓ |
| Tea & Coffee | ✓ | ✓ | ✓ |
| 25% off meeting rooms | — | ✓ | ✓ |
| Reserved desk | — | — | ✓ |
| Monitor & laptop dock | — | — | ✓ |
| Locker storage | — | — | ✓ |
| Business address registration | — | — | ✓ |
There are no long-term contracts, no set-up fees to worry about, and membership is available across our Stockport, Warrington and Manchester locations. If you’re not sure which tier is right for you, the day pass is a good way to get a feel for the space before committing, and at £10, there’s very little risk involved.
An Orbit Spaces membership gives you a professional workspace, a productive environment, and genuine flexibility — starting from £50 per month*. Whether you want to drop in occasionally with a day pass or need a permanent desk with all the extras, there’s an option built around how you actually work.
