Desk Space Genie

Renting desk space is a cost-effective means of securing a place to work on a short-term basis. This site finds you a desk in the area of your choice, and lets you sort the results by price and proximity. The average cost of desk rental is around £170 per month, but this also includes internet access, tea and coffee-making facilities and of course a chair. Desk Space Genie is fantastically easy to use and presents information clearly, complete with photos and maps. Listings are fairly sparse outside of major cities, but you can sign up to receive alerts when space becomes available. Also, until May 1, offices can advertise their spare desks for free.
