Chesterton, South East • England
Chesterton is a village just outside Bicester in Oxfordshire, England — OX postcodes a few miles off the M40 junction, with Oxford to the south-west and the A34 and A41 corridors close by. KrewBase houses contractor crews working this way in whole serviced houses and flats: bills in our name, Wi-Fi tested before check-in, parking matched to your vehicles, and one monthly invoice going straight to your accounts team.
Chesterton itself is small, so crews working here usually take houses in the newer Bicester growth areas and the villages dotted along the A41 — Chesterton, Wendlebury, Islip and the like. The newer estates deliver exactly what crews need: four-bed detached and semi-detached houses with double drives, integral garages and a downstairs loo, while older village cottages suit a tidy two or three-person team who want character over capacity.
We filter for off-road parking for the actual vehicles, a proper kitchen-diner the crew can eat in together, and two bathrooms for crews of five or more — anything that falls short doesn't make the list, whatever it looks like in the photos. Broadband is speed-tested, heating and showers are checked, and we confirm the parking setup before the booking is confirmed, not after.
Bicester has been one of the busier construction and housing development markets in the south-east for years, and crews based around Chesterton feed that work as well as rail and utilities jobs along the corridors toward Oxford and the Midlands. Logistics around the M40 junction, warehouse and manufacturing work across Oxfordshire, and placements at the hospitals in Oxford all keep teams in the area for months at a time.
For contracts measured in months rather than weeks, a crew house on one invoice beats a hotel booking refreshed every Friday without fail — and usually repriced upwards each time. The crew gets a proper base with a kitchen, a washing machine and parking that doesn't depend on luck, while your accounts team processes a single predictable monthly line for the whole stay.
The M40 Junction 9 sits a short drive south of Chesterton, opening up Oxford, Banbury and the Midlands, and the A41 and A34 cross close by — the A34 running north to the Midlands and south past Oxford toward Newbury. Bicester has rail stations with services toward Oxford and London Marylebone, handy for anyone splitting the week between sites or arriving by train.
Send us the site postcode and we shortlist on real drive time at shift-start hours, not map distance. Vetted options with photos, parking matched to your vehicles and one monthly rate per property land with you within two hours of the request — usually with time to spare before the crew's first shift, and always with parking confirmed before you decide.
You take the whole house or flat — no other guests anywhere in the building. All bills sit in our name: council tax, gas, electric, water and broadband, with Wi-Fi speed-tested before check-in and parking confirmed against the vans and pickups actually arriving. The crew gets proper showers, a full kitchen and space to dry kit, not a budget room with a kettle.
A weekly clean and fresh linen are included as standard, and maintenance — boiler, appliances, locks, the lot — goes to us rather than your lads or your site manager. Your company gets one monthly invoice, paid by card, with no booking fees and no minimum crew or stay. When the job runs long, extending the house is a phone call, not a paperwork exercise.
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 hours from getting the site postcode, crew size and start date. We check morning drive time from Chesterton and the Bicester area to your site, then send vetted whole houses with photos, parking detail and a single monthly rate for each option.
Chesterton itself plus Bicester's estates and the surrounding villages across the OX postcode area — south toward Oxford, north toward the M40 corridor and east toward the A41 villages. If the drive to site works, the house works; that's the test we apply.
Yes — it's a hard filter. We take your vehicle list and only shortlist properties where everything fits off-road. The newer estates around Bicester are strong on double drives and garages, which is where most crews end up once they've seen the parking setup.
Broadband is included in the rate and we speed-test it before anyone moves in, so it copes with evening admin, calls and streaming. If a property's connection fails the test, it's off the shortlist — no exceptions, however good the house looks otherwise.
That's the standard deal: one monthly invoice, paid by card covering rent and every bill in our name. No booking fees, nothing for the crew to set up, and a single line for your accounts team to reconcile at the end of each month.
We do, end to end. The crew reports the problem, our contractor sorts it, and it never reaches your site manager. A weekly clean and fresh linen are included too, so the house stays presentable for the whole contract, however long it ends up running.
