About this space
A place to settle in and get things done.
Beehive Lofts — Waulk Mill provides dedicated coworking desks and flexible memberships in Manchester’s Ancoats area, with a calm, characterful setting designed to feel more like a welcoming home than a conventional office. It suits freelancers, founders, small teams and growing businesses looking for a sociable base without sacrificing space to concentrate. Members have their own generous desk rather than a hot-desk, with natural light, high ceilings, quiet areas and thoughtfully arranged interiors. Depending on the workspace, desks can be height-adjustable and equipped with an optional monitor, while phone booths and printing facilities help make focused, practical working easier. Flexible membership options allow people to choose how often they use the space, with longer-term and full-time arrangements available. Shared lounges and fully functional kitchens add a strong hospitality feel. Expect sofas, booths, books, pool tables and informal areas for taking a break, hosting a guest or changing pace, alongside fridges, microwaves, ovens, hobs and complimentary drinks and snacks. The community calendar brings members together through optional social and wellbeing activities, while the dog-friendly approach makes the space feel relaxed and personable. Meeting-room hire extends the offer for client appointments, team sessions and smaller discussions, with a choice of distinctive rooms, informal meeting areas and private phone booths. Beehive Lofts — Waulk Mill is particularly well suited to people who value thoughtful design, a friendly creative community and the freedom to move between focused desk work, comfortable shared spaces and easy collaboration.
