Cromarty, Scotland • Scotland
At the tip of the Black Isle, where the Cromarty Firth opens into the Moray Firth, sits Cromarty - a historic fishing town in the Highlands, IV postcode area, with Inverness around twenty-two miles away over the Kessock Bridge. It's one of Scotland's best-preserved 18th-century towns, fishermen's cottages packed along the shore. KrewBase houses contractor crews in whole serviced properties here: bills in our name, Wi-Fi tested before check-in and one monthly invoice.
The housing is full of character - fishermen's cottages along the shore, Georgian townhouses on the conservation streets, and a scatter of newer builds on the approach roads. Character is lovely, but crews need function, so we filter hard: parking that fits your vehicles, heating that copes with a firth-side winter, a real kitchen and living space, and bedrooms that let people on different shifts sleep. Where the old town can't offer that, we shortlist nearby Black Isle alternatives and show you the drive time.
The firth has a long-standing energy and marine industry, and crews regularly work across fabrication, port facilities and maintenance shutdowns along both shores, alongside construction, utilities and public-sector work across the Highlands. Cromarty itself sees steady work on its historic buildings and harbour. For jobs on the firth we shortlist from both banks and let drive time decide, rather than assuming one side is better.
The A832 runs south through the Black Isle to the A9, and from there it's about half an hour to Inverness over the Kessock Bridge. Fortrose and Rosemarkie are ten minutes along the coast, Dingwall and Invergordon are quick runs on the firth side, and Dingwall has the nearest rail link. Crews working the southern shore can also use the local ferry when it's running. We shortlist by real drive time from your site address, whichever side of the water it's on.
Your crew holds the whole property for the booking. All bills - council tax, gas, electricity, water and broadband - sit in our name, and Wi-Fi is speed-tested before anyone arrives. Properties sleeping five or more get two bathrooms, weekly cleaning and fresh linen come as standard, and maintenance is one call to us. The company receives a single monthly invoice paid by card. There are no booking fees, no minimum crew and no minimum stay - the arrangement flexes with the job.
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.
Within about two hours during working hours, given the site address, crew numbers and dates. Cromarty is a small place with a distinctive housing stock, so we also flag nearby Black Isle alternatives with drive times, in case the best functional fit sits a few miles down the road.
Yes - Fortrose, Rosemarkie, Dingwall, Invergordon and the villages along both shores of the firth all sit within reach. Each shortlist option shows the drive time to your site, which matters on firth jobs where the water can double a journey if you pick the wrong bank.
We speed-test broadband at every property before check-in and only shortlist where the connection is genuinely usable for uploads and video calls. If your crew's evenings involve paperwork back to the office, tell us and we'll flag the strongest options first.
One monthly invoice covers rent and all bills, itemised by property address so accounts can reconcile it. Terms are card payment as standard, there are no booking fees, and there are no deposits sprung on you at the end. It's built to drop into a normal accounts payable process.
Then that property doesn't make the shortlist. You tell us how many vehicles are coming, and we match parking to them before you commit - driveways, off-road space or unrestricted streets wide enough for a van. Parking is checked against your actual vehicles, not assumed from a listing photo.
Yes. Small crews are as welcome as big ones, and stays can run from a couple of weeks upwards. A whole house for two people is often better value than it sounds - you get the kitchen, laundry and parking a hotel can't offer, and the company still gets one simple monthly invoice.

If Cromarty is short on the right house for your crew, Inverness is the obvious back-up, roughly 16 miles away. See our contractor accommodation Inverness page for what we hold there. Small crews are as welcome as big ones.
