Your world, on a server that stays up.
A dedicated server of your own in London — not a slot on a machine shared with twenty other worlds. Built to spec by hand, Java or Bedrock, and you get SFTP into the mods folder plus a panel that shows you the real console.
Packages
Each one is a machine built for you alone. Priced by size, because that is what decides how many players and plugins it can carry.
- 1 core, 2 GB RAM, 50 GB disk
- Around 10 players
- Vanilla or Paper
- SFTP for your own mods
- Nightly world backups
- 2 cores, 4 GB RAM, 75 GB disk
- Around 20 players
- Plugins, permissions, a web map
- SFTP for your own mods
- Nightly world backups
- 3 cores, 6 GB RAM, 100 GB disk
- Around 40 players
- Forge, Fabric or a curated modpack
- SFTP for your own mods
- Nightly world backups
- Several linked servers behind a proxy
- A heavy modpack that needs the whole box
- A website and database alongside
- Quoted after we read what you need
Every package is a dedicated VPS built to that spec, on its own account, for you only. No setup fee, no minimum term, a month’s notice either way. Moving an existing world in is included — send us the folder and we will put it on and check it loads before you switch anyone over.
What every server gets
Not extras. This is simply how we set one up.
Nightly world backups
Kept off the server, so a corrupted world or a griefing incident is a restore rather than a disaster.
- Seven days kept, restored on request
- You can trigger one yourself before a risky change
SFTP into your own files
Your mods, plugins, config and world folders, reachable with any SFTP client. Upload what you like — it is your machine.
- Key-based login, set up from the panel
- Drop in mods, then restart from the panel
- We will install a modpack for you if you would rather
A tidy address
A subdomain of ours, or point your own name at it — either way nobody has to type an IP address.
- Java and Bedrock ports set up properly
- Your own domain configured for you
Only the ports the game needs
The firewall starts closed. Nothing is exposed because it happened to be listening.
- RCON is bound locally, never to the internet
- SSH by key, never by password
Restarts that do not eat the world
A scheduled restart saves the world first and warns anyone online, rather than pulling the plug mid-chunk.
- Automatic restart if the server crashes
- Optional nightly restart to clear memory
Version changes handled
New Minecraft version, or moving from vanilla to Paper — we do it and check the world still loads first.
- Java, Paper, Purpur, Fabric or Forge
- We keep the old jar so it can go back
Someone who answers
You message the person who built the server, not a form. Reply the same day, most days.
- Email, and a Discord if you would rather
- We tell you when something is our fault
A control panel with the console in it
Most cheap hosts hide the thing you actually need when something breaks.
Start, stop, restart
With a warning to anyone online and a world save first.
Read the log, see who is on
The last hundred lines, and the current player list.
Whitelist and operators
Add or remove a player without opening a support ticket.
Back up the world now
Before you install that plugin you are not sure about.
Every action you take is written down — what was asked for, when, and what came back. So is everything we do. There is no box for typing raw commands into: the panel can ask for the jobs above and nothing else, because a web page that can run anything on a server is a web page worth attacking.
Where we fit — and where we do not
Worth reading before you order. It saves us both a conversation.
Straight answers
- Good fit: survival and creative worlds for friends, a school or club server, a small community with plugins, a modpack for a group.
- Not a good fit: a public network expecting hundreds of concurrent players. A modpack bigger than the Wither package is fine, it just becomes a Bespoke quote — we will size the machine to it rather than squeeze it into a package that will struggle.
- One region. The servers are in London. That is right for a UK and European group and wrong if most of your players are in the US or Australia — the ping will show it.
- One customer per machine. Your world is not sharing memory with anyone else’s, which is why there is no “sold out” and no noisy neighbour. It also means a new server is built by hand rather than appearing instantly.
- Not a 24-hour desk. Your server restarts itself automatically if it crashes, at any hour. A human looking at it is business hours, usually the same day.
Questions people ask first
Short answers, no hedging.
Can I move my existing world over?
Yes, and it is included. Send us the world folder and we will put it on, start it, and check it loads properly before you point anyone at the new address.
Java or Bedrock?
Both. If you want phones, consoles and PCs on the same world we can set up a bridge so Bedrock players can join a Java server.
Can I install my own plugins and mods?
Yes. You get SFTP straight into the server folder, so the mods, plugins and config directories are yours to work in. Upload, then restart from the panel. Send them to us instead if you would rather, and we will tell you if one is known to break things.
How many players will it actually hold?
The figures on the packages are for normal survival play. A world full of redstone or a heavy modpack will take more memory per player, so ask us and we will give you a straight estimate.
What if I want to leave?
Tell us and we will send you the whole world folder, the plugins and the configs. No minimum term and no exit fee.
How does ordering actually work?
Pick a package and tell us about the world. We read it, build you a dedicated machine to that spec, and email you the address — usually within a few hours on a working day. Then it appears in your panel with the console, the file details and the controls.
Get started
Tell us what you are building.
Pick a package and say a bit about the world — how many of you, vanilla or which modpack, moving something over or starting fresh. We build the machine around that answer, usually the same day, or tell you honestly if we are not the right host for it.
