Fulbourn, East of England • England
Fulbourn sits two miles south-east of Cambridge in the CB postcode area, close to the A11 and handy for crews working across Cambridgeshire. KrewBase provides whole serviced houses and flats for working crews in and around the village — bills, Wi-Fi and parking sorted before you arrive, with everything on one monthly invoice for your business. Whether it's a pair of sparks in for a fortnight or a full gang for six months, we sort the accommodation so you can get on with the job.
Fulbourn is a large village with a good spread of housing: post-war estates with wide roads and driveways, newer developments of family homes, and older terraces nearer the centre. For working crews the estates south and east of the village tend to work best — space for vans on the drive, and easy access to the A11 without cutting through the older streets. We only put crews forward for whole houses or flats with proper living space, genuine double bedrooms and enough bathrooms, so nobody on an early shift is queuing for the shower.
Everything we shortlist is checked in person or through a trusted local contact: parking measured against the actual vehicles, broadband speed-tested at the wall socket, and the kitchen, heating and hot water given a proper look-over. If a property in Fulbourn doesn't suit a working crew — awkward parking, thin walls, a landlord's antique furniture — it never makes the list, and we move on to the next one rather than talk you into it.
Most crews coming to Fulbourn are tied to the Cambridge southern fringe — construction and fit-out on housing and commercial development, maintenance and support work around the city's hospitals and campuses, and trades supporting the steady stream of lab, office and residential schemes across Cambridgeshire. The village also suits crews working further afield — Newmarket, Ely and the A11 corridor — who want a quieter base than the city itself. Whatever the job, we keep the accommodation practical: near site, bills in, one monthly invoice.
Fulbourn sits just off the A11, so Cambridge's southern fringe is ten minutes by van and the city's hospitals and campuses are a short hop. The M11 is a couple of junctions away for crews heading to Stansted, Harlow or London, and the A505 links west towards the M1 corridor. Cambridge station is around three miles away for rail connections. When a job is further out — Newmarket, Ely, Haverhill — we shortlist houses by real drive time from the site rather than pinning crews to the village itself.
Every Fulbourn let is a whole property — house or flat — taken by KrewBase and run in our name. Bills go in our name too: council tax, gas, electric, water, broadband. Wi-Fi is speed-tested before check-in, parking is checked against the actual vehicles, and a house sleeping five or more gets two bathrooms. A weekly clean and fresh linen come as standard, and any maintenance issue is ours to fix, not yours.
Your business gets one monthly invoice, paid by card, no booking fees and no minimum crew or stay. Tell us where the site is, how many people need beds and when they start, and we'll come back with a shortlist inside two working hours — usually a handful of houses with parking and bathrooms noted, so you can pick on facts rather than photos. Once you choose, we handle the contract, the keys and everything in between.
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.
Yes. Send the site postcode, crew size and dates and we'll turn a shortlist around within two hours during working hours. Because we hold whole properties rather than rooms, the paperwork is simple — once you pick a house we can usually have keys ready within a few days, and the crew can be straight in and working.
Fulbourn itself plus the surrounding villages and the Cambridge southern fringe — Teversham, Cherry Hinton, the Shelfords and out towards the A11 and A505. If the job is in Cambridge itself we can just as easily base the crew in the city; tell us the site and we'll shortlist by drive time rather than sticking to one village.
Yes — it's one of the first things we check. We measure driveways against the actual vehicles and won't offer a house that leaves a crew van on the street. Most of the estates around Fulbourn have off-road space for two or more vehicles, which suits a transit and a couple of cars comfortably.
Council tax, gas, electric, water and broadband are all in our name and included in the rate. Wi-Fi is speed-tested before check-in so evening streaming and calls home actually work. Your crew pays nothing at the property and your business gets one monthly invoice, card payment, with no booking fees.
One invoice per month covering rent and all bills, paid by card, with no booking fees or hidden extras. We can split by project or cost code if your accounts team needs it, and we deal directly with whoever books — a PA, an office manager or the gaffer. The paperwork stays with us, not with your crew.
No minimums at all. A pair of engineers for two weeks get the same service as a gang of twenty for six months. Rates flex with the length of stay, stays can usually be extended if the job overruns, and nobody is ever turned away for being too small a booking.

If Fulbourn is short on the right house for your crew, Cambridge is the obvious back-up, right next door. See our contractor accommodation Cambridge page for what we hold there. Small crews are as welcome as big ones.
