Catton, Yorkshire and the Humber • England
Tucked into the Yorkshire Wolds a few miles east of Pocklington, Catton is a quiet East Riding village in England's YO postcode area. Crews working across Yorkshire and the Humber need somewhere settled rather than a hotel corridor on an industrial estate, and that is where KrewBase comes in. We let whole serviced houses and flats around villages like this, with bills, Wi-Fi and parking sorted before anyone moves in, and one monthly invoice going straight to your office.
Catton itself is a small Wolds village of stone houses, farm conversions and a modest scatter of newer semis. Crews based here are usually booked into the surrounding villages and the edge of Pocklington instead, where three-bedroom semis with driveways are far easier to come by than in a postcard hamlet. We filter every property for off-road parking that genuinely fits a van, broadband that can handle a full crew online at once, and a second bathroom when five or more are sharing.
Most crews working out this way are supporting construction and housing development across the East Riding, along with grid and energy connections, agricultural infrastructure and NHS work reaching out from York and Hull. It is a spread-out rural patch, so crews tend to stay a week or more rather than commute daily from home. We keep bookings flexible because job lengths on rural work shift with the weather and ground conditions — the job, not the calendar, sets the stay.
Catton sits just off the A1079, the York to Hull road, so both cities are a straightforward drive: York in around twenty minutes, Hull in roughly forty. Pocklington is the local hub for food and fuel, only a few minutes away. There is no railway station in the village and bus services are thin, so this is driving country. Send us the site postcode and we shortlist houses by real drive time rather than straight-line distance, which matters on winding Wolds roads.
You get the whole property — no random housemates, no shared corridors with strangers. Bills go in our name, Wi-Fi is speed-tested before check-in, and parking is checked against the actual vehicles turning up. Crews of five or more get a second bathroom as standard. Weekly clean and fresh linen, maintenance comes to us rather than your supervisor, and one monthly invoice lands with your office paid by card. No booking fees, no finder's cut, no agent games.
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.
Send the site postcode, crew size and job length and we return a shortlist within two working hours. Every option is checked for parking, Wi-Fi and a workable kitchen before it reaches you, so the list is short for a reason — we would rather hand you three right ones than a dozen maybes.
The whole area. Catton crews are usually housed in Catton, Pocklington or one of the neighbouring Wolds villages, depending on where the site sits. We pick by drive time, so if a house in the next village cuts twenty minutes off the morning run, that is the one we put forward.
Yes — we treat it as a deal-breaker, not a bonus. Every property is checked against the actual vehicles the crew brings, and we want a van off the road, not half-mounted on a grass verge. If a pretty cottage only has on-street parking, it does not make the list.
Yes. Council tax, gas, electric, water and broadband all go in our name, and the Wi-Fi is speed-tested before check-in so nobody is hotspotting off a phone on day one. Your crew pays nothing at the property — everything rolls into one monthly invoice to your office.
That is how we work as standard. One monthly invoice covers rent, bills, cleaning and linen, paid by card, with no booking fees bolted on. Your accounts team deals with a single bill and a single contact, however long the job runs.
We do. Maintenance comes to KrewBase, not to your supervisor or the lads on site. The crew reports a problem, we arrange the fix with a local tradesperson, and it never appears on your invoice beyond what is agreed. Weekly cleans also keep small problems from becoming big ones.
