I run a small digital content/copywriting agency with two co-directors. We work from our respective homes a lot but often need communal spaces in the week in which to work. Our solution has been to join private members' clubs in central London (including Soho House, Century and The Hospital). Annual subscription is anything between £200-700UKP per annum, so we've each joined a different one, enabling us to meet up at three different spaces (you can usually sign in two or three guests). They all have wi-fi, are centrally located, have good food and drink on tap, boast a mix of social and working spaces and are usually abuzz with other creative people (good networking opportunities). Compared to the cost of a fully serviced office - which we'd only work in occasionally - it's a steal.

I have found that the environment that one works in is just as important as the tools that are used. If I really need to focus and write a meaty essay, I will take a corner table at the library. If I am am feeling a bit more creative (or want to show off my laptop), I will go to a coffee shop. A change in scenery is a good thing, and although the same usual workspace may work for some, it makes my output rather stagnant.
