Where Cotton Court Business Centre has addresses
Who Cotton Court Business Centre suits
Cotton Court Business Centre is a workspace operator, so the address comes attached to a real building with meeting rooms and desks. You pay for that whether you use it or not. It suits people who will occasionally want somewhere to sit or to meet a client, and is poor value if you only need the address.

From £39 a monthCotton Court Business Centre: common questions
How much does Cotton Court Business Centre cost?
Its cheapest published plan works out at about £25 a month. Check whether post forwarding and a director's service address are included, because on most plans in this market they are extra.
Can I use Cotton Court Business Centre as my registered office?
Only on a plan that explicitly includes registered office use. Several providers sell a business address that is not valid at Companies House, so check the plan table above rather than assuming.
What ID do I need to sign up?
Photo identification and a proof of address dated within the last three months. Every UK provider of registered office services must run these checks before acting for you.
