UK VPS Hosting — London and Manchester
Two data centers, six plans, one billing account. Run your UK infrastructure on is*hosting's own hardware — KVM virtualization, NVMe storage, and up to 256 dedicated IPv4 addresses per server.
Why Choose a UK VPS?
Two Locations, One Account
Pick Manchester or London — or use both. Each data center runs on independent infrastructure, so you can split workloads by latency requirements or keep a warm standby in a separate facility. Add VPS in other locations as well.
UK-Based IPs
Every VPS gets a dedicated IPv4 address registered in the UK. Need more? Add up to 256 additional IPs at $4/mo each. Useful when your ad network, payment processor, or compliance setup requires locally-registered addresses.
Predictable Costs at Any Scale
Flat monthly pricing regardless of traffic spikes (unmetered bandwidth from the Medium plan up). Annual billing saves up to 15%. A cheap UK VPS doesn't have to mean oversold hardware — every plan runs on dedicated resources.
UK VPS Server Plans
Choose a plan and configure it at checkout. All plans include KVM virtualization, NVMe storage, a dedicated IPv4 address, weekly backups, and root access via SSH.

Upgrade Without Migrating
Add RAM, disk space, CPU cores, or extra IPv4 addresses to your existing VPS — no plan switch required, no migration. Request changes through the ticket system and they'll be applied to your running server.
What's Included with Every UK VPS
KVM Virtualization
Full hardware virtualization with dedicated resources. Your VPS runs its own kernel. Consistent CPU and memory behavior isn't optional for databases, CI pipelines, and trading bots.
Basic SLA
All VPS plans in the United Kingdom include a 99.99% uptime — less than 53 minutes of potential downtime per year. Backed by our published Basic Service Level Agreement.
1Gbps Connectivity
Every plan connects at 1Gbps. From the Medium up, bandwidth is unmetered. Lite and Start plans include 2 TB and 3 TB, respectively, which cover most single-project workloads.
24/7 Technical Support
Real engineers are available around the clock, not the scripted support. They operate via chat and ticket system. Standard and VIP server administration packages are available.
Free Weekly Backups
Every UK VPS hosting gets automatic weekly backups — four to five copies stored encrypted. If your project requires daily backups (last 30 days), that's available as an add-on.
Linux, Windows, and macOS
Linux distros are available across all VPS plans in the United Kingdom. Windows starts from the Start plan ($20/mo for a licensed copy). macOS is available from the Medium plan up.
is*hosting in UK — London & Manchester
Virtual private servers from is*hosting are located in the Pulsant data center in Manchester and in the M247 Global data center in London.
Manchester is a good baseline choice for UK and Northern Europe latency. A strong pick is London if your users or services are concentrated in London or Southeast England, or if you need fast routes to continental Europe.
We don't resell capacity from third parties — the servers are ours, hosted at facilities we've vetted and contracted directly.

What You Can Run on UK VPS Hosting
Two locations — London and Manchester — on dedicated hardware with NVMe storage and a 1Gbps port. Full root access from day one. Add a control panel or run everything over SSH. Whatever your stack looks like, it runs here.
Control Panels
Choose from ispmanager, HestiaCP, DirectAdmin, cPanel, aaPanel, or FastPanel — installable at setup, on any Linux OS. Free options (HestiaCP, aaPanel, FastPanel) cover most use cases. cPanel and DirectAdmin are paid add-ons. Prefer the command line? SSH access is available on every plan.
Any CMS
WordPress, Ghost, Joomla, Drupal, Magento, and OpenCart run without modifications. For custom builds — Django, Laravel, Rails, Node.js, Strapi, Supabase, PocketBase, and Appwrite work the same way here as they do anywhere else. Add resources to run multiple websites on a single UK VPS.
Infrastructure & DevOps
Docker and Portainer for containers. Nginx, Caddy, and Traefik for reverse proxying. Grafana, Uptime Kuma, and Sentry for monitoring. GitLab and Gitea for source control. Redis, MinIO, Vault, and Airflow for data and workflow layers. Add Coolify if you want a self-hosted PaaS on top.
Self-Hosted Applications
n8n, Flowise, Node-RED, and Windmill for automation. WireGuard and OpenVPN for private networking. Nextcloud, Bookstack, Invoice Ninja, and Plane for team tools. Ollama, Open WebUI, and Dify for running AI locally. Jellyfin, Discourse, Jitsi, Vaultwarden, MetaTrader — if it runs on Linux, it runs here.
FAQ About UK VPS
Why Choose a UK-based VPS?
A VPS physically located in the UK gives your users in Britain lower latency — typically under 10 ms from London and Manchester. Compared to shared web hosting, a London VPS gives you root access, dedicated resources, and no noisy neighbors. It also means your IP addresses are UK-registered, which matters for geo-targeting, ad verification, local payment processing, and data residency requirements. With two data center locations, you can pick the one closest to your audience or distribute across both.
What's the Difference Between the Manchester and London Locations?
Both locations offer the same plans, specs, and pricing. The difference is network proximity: Manchester connects well to Northern England, Scotland, and Ireland — a solid default for an England VPS serving the entire country. London is better for Southern England and fast continental European routes, with direct access to major peering exchanges. Choose based on where your traffic originates.
Is is*hosting the Cheapest UK VPS Provider?
Not the cheapest on the market, but close and without the usual compromises. The Lite plan starts at $5.94/mo (annual billing) with 1 CPU, 1 GB RAM, and 20 GB storage on dedicated KVM hardware. If your definition of "cheap" includes a server that actually works under load, we're competitive.
Can I Upgrade or Downgrade My VPS Plan?
Yes, you can customize and scale your VPS hosting plan anytime. Add drive space, increase CPU power, or add RAM without switching to a new plan. You can also easily switch to a higher VPS plan, and your data will be fully migrated to the new server. To modify your server resources or to move to the new plan quickly and easily, please contact our support team through the ticket system.
Can I Add More IP Addresses?
Yes. Every plan includes 1 dedicated IPv4. You can add up to 256 additional IPv4 addresses at $4/month each. IPv6 is issued free of charge (up to 64) to the server in all locations (only on KVM virtualization). More than 64: $0.01 USD per IP.
What Kind of Technical Support Is Provided?
is*hosting offers comprehensive technical support for all customers. Our team is here to assist you if you encounter server issues, require expert consultations, or seek service upgrades. Take advantage of our standard or VIP server administration services and explore our knowledge base for additional guidance.
How Fast Is Provisioning?
Typically, it takes 5-15 minutes after payment. You'll receive an email with your server IP, root credentials, and SSH access details. If you selected a control panel during order, it'll be pre-installed.
