Evanton, Scotland • Scotland
Evanton is a small village tucked off the A9 about twenty miles north of Inverness, looking across to the Cromarty Firth. There's little rental stock in the village itself, so crews working the firth, the wind farms and the roads across Easter Ross usually base a few miles away — and that's where we come in. KrewBase takes whole serviced houses and flats around Evanton, Dingwall and the neighbouring villages with bills in our name, Wi-Fi tested before check-in and one monthly invoice to your company.
Evanton itself is a handful of cottages and a main street, so crews rarely lodge in the village proper. The workable stock sits around it: houses and steadings in the neighbouring villages, and the small towns of Dingwall, Alness and Invergordon a few minutes up or down the firth. We shortlist strictly by drive time to your site, and we check the things Highland properties sometimes lack — proper parking for vans, oil or gas heating that works, and broadband that's actually been speed-tested.
The firth is one of the busiest energy corridors in Scotland: port and fabrication activity on its shores, wind work across the hills behind, and the grid, roads and water infrastructure that support it all. Crews working across the Highlands — turbine teams, marine contractors, civil gangs — rotate through the area in waves. A whole house with one monthly invoice beats camp-style living for any job longer than a few weeks.
The A9 is minutes away, running south to Inverness in around 25 minutes and north through Easter Ross. Dingwall is roughly five miles, Alness and Invergordon a short run up the firth shore. There's no station in the village, but Dingwall has one on the Inverness–Wick line. Tell us the site and we shortlist by real drive time — a firth-side base can cut half an hour off a Highland commute each way.
The crew takes the whole house. Bills — council tax, heating, electric, water, broadband — stay in our name from day one. Wi-Fi is tested before check-in, which matters in the Highlands more than most places, and parking is confirmed against the vehicles. Crews of five or more get two bathrooms in our search, a weekly clean keeps the place straight, and maintenance is ours. One monthly invoice, paid by card, no booking fees, no minimum stay.
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.
Very little — it's a small village. We place crews in the houses and steadings of the surrounding area and in Dingwall, Alness or Invergordon a few minutes away. Give us the site postcode and we'll shortlist by real drive time, which is usually shorter than people expect.
The villages around Evanton itself, plus Dingwall, Alness, Invergordon and down towards Inverness for crews working the southern end. If the job moves up the firth or into Easter Ross, we re-shortlist from that side rather than make the crew commute.
Yes, and it's one of the first things we check on Highland properties. We match driveways, yards or on-street space to the vehicles and equipment you list, and confirm heating fuel type and parking in the property summary before the crew travels north.
All of them — council tax, heating, electric, water and broadband stay in our name and roll into one monthly invoice to your company paid by card. Broadband is speed-tested before check-in, because a crew without working internet is a crew that can't do its paperwork.
Yes. Whole houses suit shift patterns far better than hotels — no housekeeping knocking at nine, and the crew sleeps when the rota says so. Tell us the shift pattern and we'll favour quieter spots and note anything the crew needs for day sleeping.
Extensions are routine in this corridor. Tell us before the end date and we'll usually extend in place at the agreed rate; if the property is committed elsewhere, we line up a like-for-like option with the same drive time before anyone packs up.
