Arlecdon, North West • England
A small village above the west Cumbrian coastal plain, Arlecdon sits between Frizington and Egremont in Cumbria, North West England, in the CA postcode area, a short run from Whitehaven and the A595. It's a quiet former mining community within reach of the energy and industrial work along the Cumbrian coast. KrewBase houses contractor crews in whole serviced properties here and in the neighbouring villages, bills, Wi-Fi and parking in, one monthly invoice.
Housing here is classic west Cumbria: stone and brick terraces from the mining era, sturdy semis along the fell-side roads, and newer estates in Frizington and Cleator Moor below. Crews do best in the semis and end terraces — a bit of outside space for boots and kit, and parking that doesn't block the lane. We check heating carefully in these older houses, and we won't offer anything with damp problems or a landlord who'd wince at work gear.
Crews across this corner of Cumbria support the energy and industrial programmes along the coast, plus construction, housing improvement and local infrastructure work in the towns. Healthcare support pulls people into the Whitehaven and Workington hospitals, and there's seasonal agricultural work inland. Sites are scattered, so most crews run a patch from Whitehaven up to Workington and inland towards Cockermouth rather than one fixed address — a village base keeps it all reachable.
The A595 runs down the coast — Whitehaven is about four miles, Egremont two, Workington nine, and the Sellafield site a short drive south. The A5086 links towards Cockermouth inland. The Cumbrian Coast line runs from Corkickle and Whitehaven stations up to Carlisle or down the coast. There's no junction-hopping needed here; it's honest A-road driving, so we shortlist strictly by measured drive time and make sure the first crew out isn't scraping ice at 5am with nowhere to park.
The whole house: every bedroom, kitchen, sitting room. Bills — council tax, gas, electric, water, broadband — are in our name and in the rent. Wi-Fi is tested before check-in, heating is checked for winter, and parking is matched to your vehicles. Crews of five or more get two bathrooms; weekly cleaning and fresh linen come as standard; and all maintenance lands with us. One monthly invoice goes to your company paid by card, with no booking fees.
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.
Two working hours is standard. Send the site address, crew size, dates and vehicles, and we'll return vetted whole houses around Arlecdon and the neighbouring villages, ranked by drive time. The village pool is small, so earlier is always better.
Arlecdon, Frizington, Cleator Moor, Egremont and Moor Row, down to Whitehaven and along to Workington, and inland towards Cockermouth. Sites along the west Cumbrian coast are all within a short run, and the shortlist is ranked by measured drive time.
We check it house by house against the vehicles you list. Many properties here have a drive, yard or generous kerb space, but fell-side lanes can be tight, so nothing is assumed. If the vans won't fit properly, the house doesn't reach the shortlist.
Yes — council tax, gas, electric, water and broadband are in our name and in the rent. Wi-Fi is speed-tested before check-in, and heating is checked properly because west Cumbrian winters are no joke. Anything that fails afterwards is our repair to arrange.
KrewBase does. Faults are reported to us and we arrange the repair with the landlord and our contractors, aiming for a 24-hour response on urgent items. Your crew reports it once and carries on working — nobody on site is chasing plumbers or waiting in for them.
No minimum either way. A small crew for a few weeks gets the same whole house and the same bills-in, Wi-Fi, weekly clean arrangement as a big crew for months. Houses are let whole regardless, so a small booking simply has a spare room for kit.
