Welcome

A Georgian house, restored
for Bristol's business community.

Where a historic building is being thoughtfully refurbished into a modern home for collaboration, connection and community.

No.20 Berkeley Square is Bristol's private members' business club, set within one of Clifton's finest Georgian buildings. Every space — from elegant meeting rooms and flexible workspaces to character-rich lounges and hospitality areas — is being carefully restored, each choice made to honour the building's heritage while creating an environment where Bristol's business community can come together with ease and purpose.

We are a not-for-profit club. Every pound of membership is reinvested directly into the project: restoring the fabric of the building, enhancing its rooms, and shaping new spaces in which members can cooperate, communicate, collaborate and socialise.

The goal is not simply to modernise No.20, but to secure its future — preserving a remarkable piece of Bristol's history while giving members a home where ideas flourish, relationships strengthen, and success is shared.

The Character of the House

Grand. Eccentric. Iconic.

I

Grand

A landmark Georgian building on one of Bristol's most elegant squares, restored with intention and run to a standard that speaks for itself — assured, never loud.

II

Eccentric

Heritage made present. From members' breakfasts to race days and the summer regatta, the calendar has character — and a generosity that brings people together.

III

Iconic

A home for Bristol's business community: meeting rooms, flexible workspaces and lounges where members cooperate, communicate, collaborate and socialise.

Why a House, and Why Now

A different kind of business club.

Most places that promise connection sell you a desk and a coffee. No.20 begins somewhere else — with a building worth gathering in, and a belief that the best business is still done face to face, in good rooms, among people you have come to trust.

Bristol has no shortage of talent and ambition. What it has lacked is a single address where the city's founders, advisers and makers can meet as equals — to work, to host, to learn, and to lend one another a hand. That is the gap No.20 exists to fill.

Because we are not-for-profit, we are free to measure success differently. Every membership goes back into the house: a restored cornice, a better-lit room, a programme of evenings worth turning up for. Members are not customers; they are custodians.

The result, we hope, is a club that feels less like a service and more like a second office and a first port of call — assured, warm, and never louder than the room requires.

Why Belong

More than a membership — a stake in something lasting.

Joining No.20 gives you the run of a beautiful working house and a calendar of curated networking among Bristol's professionals. It also makes you part of the restoration: a member, a host, and a custodian of a building that will outlast us all.

Three ways to belong — Business Full, Business Light and Social — each opening the house, the programme, and the company.
