Not all businesses require their office to be in the centre of a large city and many people find the prospect of working in a more rural setting much more appealing. Working outside the city often means that you can be that much closer to home which can not only reduce commuting times considerably but also mean you have a calmer journey to and from the office each day. There are plenty of fantastic office spaces; from historic manor houses to modern buildings that are situated outside of the city centre. We’ve highlighted a few of our favourite spaces that offer a scenic and tranquil setting for an office, away from the hustle & bustle whilst also within easy reach of transport links and amenities.
