Who it's for

Come for a day, that's all.

Down in Folkestone for the day and need somewhere better than a café table. Working remotely and fancy a change of scene. Thinking about a coworking membership but want to try the place first.

Or the home broadband has gone down, you're between offices, or a colleague's coming to join you for the day. All fine - a Day Pass is just a desk for a day, no strings.

Practical bits

Book a day, find your way.

Good to know

Day Pass questions.

Do I need to book in advance?

Booking online first is the easiest way - you're paid up and set before you arrive. If you turn up on the day, come in and we'll sort you out.

Can I book a meeting room too?

Yes. Meeting rooms are booked separately at £20 + VAT an hour. See the rooms and live availability.

Where do I park?

There's paid parking within a short walk, in the harbour car parks and around the town centre. It isn't included in the Day Pass, so you'll pay the car park directly.

Can I bring someone with me?

If they need a desk to work at, book them a Day Pass too. If they're only popping in for a coffee and a catch-up, that's fine - no pass needed.

Is there somewhere I can take calls?

Yes - there's a quiet booth downstairs for calls, so you're not taking them at your desk. It's first come, first served. For anything longer or more formal, book a meeting room.

What if I want to come back regularly?

If you're in more than the odd day, a Workbench membership works out better - you buy a block of hours each month and use them as you like. Have a look at the memberships and we'll help you pick.
