Dulverton, South West • England
Dulverton is a small market town on the River Barle in Somerset, England, in the TA postcode area, often called the southern gateway to Exmoor National Park. Tiverton is about ten miles south and the coast at Minehead lies to the north. KrewBase provides whole serviced houses and flats for working crews here: bills in our name, Wi-Fi tested before check-in, parking checked against your vehicles, and one monthly invoice for the company.
Dulverton and the Barle valley are stone country — solid local-stone terraces and cottages in town, converted farm buildings and barns out on the lanes, plus a scattering of post-war semis and newer detached houses on the roads towards Bampton and Brushford. For crews the newer edge-of-town houses win: parking for vans, room to dry work gear, and none of the listed-building quirks that come with a pretty Exmoor cottage. We filter hard for off-street parking, sensible access and enough bathrooms, because Exmoor lanes are no place to be hunting for a space at 6am.
Crews land in Dulverton for Exmoor work — forestry, fencing, conservation and land-management contracts across the national park — and for utility, water and grid jobs following the valleys between here, Tiverton and Minehead. There's also housing development and construction around Tiverton and the mid-Devon towns, and agricultural work through the seasons. The pattern is long contracts in scattered locations, which is exactly why a serviced whole house beats a guest house room in a town twenty miles from the job.
The B3222 runs south to Tiverton in about twenty minutes, where it meets the North Devon Link Road for the M5 and Barnstaple, while the lanes west cross the moor towards Minehead and the north coast. Roads off into Exmoor are narrow, and a four-mile job can be a slow four miles, so we shortlist by real drive time from the site rather than straight-line distance. There's no station at Dulverton — the nearest rail is Tiverton Parkway for Exeter and the national network — so crews here are almost always road-based.
You take the whole house for your crew, with gas, electric, water, council tax and broadband held in our name. Wi-Fi is speed-tested before check-in, parking is matched to the vans and pickups you actually run, and a crew of five or more gets two bathrooms. A weekly clean and fresh linen keep things straight, maintenance is our problem not your supervisor's, and it all lands on one monthly invoice, paid by card. No booking fees, no minimum crew size, no minimum stay — if the job runs long, extending is usually a quick phone call.
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 us the site postcode, crew size, vehicle list and start date, and we'll come back with a shortlist of suitable properties — usually within two working hours. Each option comes with photos, parking notes and a fixed weekly rate, so your office can approve it the same day and your crew can be moved in before the weekend.
We cover Dulverton plus Tiverton, Minehead, Bampton, Wiveliscombe and the Exmoor villages in between. Most crews working anywhere across the TA22 area and the national park can be housed within a sensible drive of site, and if the job moves we'll re-shortlist around the new location.
Usually, yes — provided the property's calendar allows it. Because there's no fixed minimum stay, extending is normally a quick phone call: we confirm availability, adjust the monthly invoice, and your crew stays put. Most crews on long Exmoor contracts extend at least once.
Yes. Gas, electric, water, council tax and broadband all stay in our name, so your crew never chases a utility bill or tops up a meter. Wi-Fi is speed-tested before check-in, and everything rolls into the one monthly invoice your company receives.
B&B rooms charge per person per night, with nowhere to store kit and no guarantee of the same rooms week to week. A KrewBase house gives the whole crew one address — a kitchen, a washing machine, parking at the door and space to decompress after a shift — and over a few weeks it usually works out cheaper per head.
That's the normal arrangement for most of our crews. You get one monthly invoice covering rent, bills and cleaning, paid by card, quoted against a purchase order or job number. No card payments on site, no deposits tied up, and no expense receipts for your lads to lose.
