We are spoilt with choices of free workspaces or cafes and coworking spaces in London and other cities in the UK like Manchester and Bristol. That’s no surprise – it’s the places in the UK where business happens and where you expect offices and people in suits. But with the flo-working revolution and WFA (Work From Anywhere), we see more and more workspaces coming up in amazing locations.

Places like Brighton and Portsmouth have always been amongst the top destinations for a trip to the coast. Longer staycations might lead flo-workers to the Midlands, to Northern cities like Leeds and Birmingham or all the way up to Scotland. Cornwall and Wales have also become popular destinations for all those that are no longer bound to a physical office location. Time to check out where we could work from in these places!
