At Vineyard Business Centre, we pride ourselves on offering more than just office space; we provide a place where businesses can thrive in a tranquil, rural setting. At the heart of this unique experience are two key people: Richard, the founder, and Ben, who manages the business centre alongside his responsibilities as farms manager.

Richard The Visionary Founder

With years of experience in chartered surveying and estate management, Richard established Vineyard Business Centre with a simple goal: to create a high-quality, affordable workspace in the Midlothian countryside while preserving traditional stone-built farm buildings. His vision was to build a business community where professionals could enjoy the benefits of working in nature without sacrificing modern conveniences. Thanks to Richard’s thoughtful approach, the centre has become a hub for small businesses, start-ups, and satellite offices looking for something different from city life.

Ben The Multitasking Manager

Ben plays a crucial role, not just as the farms manager overseeing the nearby Saughland Farm, but also as the day-to-day manager of Vineyard Business Centre. His responsibilities range from maintaining the serene surroundings to ensuring the centre runs smoothly for its members. Whether it's making sure the office facilities are top-notch or lending a hand with the farm, Ben's presence adds a personal touch, making the centre feel like a welcoming community.
