Allt-yr-yn, Wales • Wales
Allt-yr-yn is a suburb on the west side of Newport in South Wales, sitting between the city centre and the M4 corridor that runs east towards Bristol and west towards Cardiff. Housing is largely post-war semis and modest estates with driveways and gardens — real crew-house stock rather than city flats. KrewBase takes whole properties in and around Allt-yr-yn, bills in our name, Wi-Fi tested before anyone moves in, and one monthly invoice straight to your company.
This part of Newport is mostly interwar and post-war semis with bay windows, decent gardens and, crucially, off-street parking on the better streets. For crews that means houses you can actually live in — a proper dining kitchen, a lounge, space for five or six beds without bunking in the hallway. We favour the quieter residential streets over the busier cut-throughs, and every house is walked before it reaches your shortlist.
What we filter for is boring but important: a boiler with a service history, a kitchen that can handle shift-pattern cooking for five or six hungry lads, and parking that matches your vehicle list rather than a vague "on-street nearby". We also steer clear of the student-heavy streets — not because of the students, but because those houses have usually had a harder life than your crew needs to inherit for six months.
Newport and the M4 corridor pull in steady work — construction and housing development across the city, logistics around the docks and distribution parks, and rail work on the main line that runs through the station. Further out there are NHS and healthcare contracts, manufacturing sites and the grid and energy jobs that move crews around South Wales regularly. If your contract is anywhere between Cardiff and Bristol, Allt-yr-yn puts you minutes from the motorway without paying city-centre prices.
The M4 junctions 27 and 28 are both close, which is the big advantage here — Bristol is about 35 minutes east, Cardiff 20 minutes west, and the Severn crossings are on your doorstep. Newport city centre and the railway station are a short drive or a walkable distance depending on where in the suburb the house sits. As always, tell us the site postcode and we'll rank shortlist properties by real drive time at your start time, not straight-line distance.
It's a whole-property let. Your crew gets every room, and we take the bills — gas, electric, council tax, water, broadband — in our name. Wi-Fi is speed-tested at the router before check-in, parking is verified against your vans, and for five or more people we push for two bathrooms. A weekly clean with fresh linen comes as standard, and repairs go through us, not your office.
One monthly invoice covers it all, paid by card, with no booking fees and no minimum stay or crew size. Small jobs are as welcome as long ones — if it's two sparkies for three weeks or a full groundworks crew for a year, the arrangement works the same. Your office deals with us, the lads deal with the kettle, and nobody on site ever sees a utility bill or a rent reminder.
Send us the requirement — town, dates, headcount, vehicles and any shift pattern we should know about. We come back within 2 hours with a shortlist from property we already hold, not a search we have just started. You pick, we confirm, the crew moves in, and we stay on it for the length of the job. One monthly invoice, card payment for limited companies, no booking fees.
Give us the site postcode, crew size and start date and we'll come back with a shortlist of checked properties within about two hours in working hours. We only list houses we've physically inspected, so there are no surprises on arrival day.
Allt-yr-yn itself plus the surrounding suburbs — Gaer, Malpas, Stow Park and into the city side of Newport. If a house in a neighbouring area gets your crew to site faster, we'll put it forward. Everything is judged on drive time from the site, not just the suburb name.
This suburb is one of the better parts of Newport for parking — many of the semis have driveways or garages. We still check every property against your actual vehicle list before you commit, and we'll only shortlist houses where everything you bring will fit off the road.
Yes. Your company gets one monthly invoice, paid by card whatever the shift pattern. The house works the same for days or nights — black-out blinds aren't standard but we can arrange them, and the weekly clean is scheduled around when the crew is actually asleep.
No. There's no minimum stay and no minimum headcount — a small two-person job gets the same service as a twenty-strong crew on a long contract. The price reflects the property and the length, not a hidden per-bed surcharge.
A crew house gives the whole team one front door, a proper kitchen, off-street parking and space to live normally for weeks or months — at a fraction of hotel rates. Bills are in our name, and your company gets one monthly invoice instead of a stack of receipts. For anything over a couple of weeks it's usually the cheaper and better-living option.
