The Varn woodland office

A unique and innovative outdoor workspace

Our commitment to planting trees and offsetting our carbon footprint, has given rise to our unique and innovative 'woodland office'

We manage over 35,000 trees, including ash, oak, beech, and cherry, with a woodland management plan focused on absorbing CO2 and promoting biodiversity through a small-scale ‘rewilding’ programme. Our woodland office embodies the benefits of being immersed in nature as well as providing a unique space for our hardworking team to thrive.

A natural workspace designed for our team to be able to work outside and close to nature

Our woodland office combines a setting of outdoor working, with the focus of a dedicated workspace in the form of a transparent office surrounded by woodland and the winter proof ‘Varn Barn’. This innovative workspace offers our team a place to work in fresh air, natural light and a peaceful environment to help think, create and collaborate.

Promoting wellbeing and sustainability

As well as using 100% renewable electricity and recycling wherever possible, we offset our business and staff commute carbon footprint by buying, planting and managing our very own Varn woodland. This innovative outdoor workspace in Bradford on Avon promotes employee wellbeing, celebrates the natural world and offsets our carbon footprint many times over.
