Great and Little Broughton, Yorkshire and the Humber • England
Great and Little Broughton sit side by side a few miles south of Stokesley, in North Yorkshire, between Middlesbrough and the edge of the North York Moors. It's one of the quieter corners of the TS postcode area, which is exactly why crews like it after a long shift. KrewBase puts your team in whole, serviced houses and flats here — bills in our name, Wi-Fi tested before check-in, parking that fits the vans, and one monthly invoice for the lot.
These are two proper villages rather than a suburb: stone-built terraces along the main road, semis on the quieter lanes, and a scatter of newer detached houses on the edges. For crews, the sweet spot is usually the semis and detached places, where a drive or a generous kerbside gap takes a transit and a couple of cars without an argument. Stone-built places also tend to hold heat better through a Teesside winter, which matters when the heating bills are ours, not yours.
We filter every house we shortlist here for the things that actually matter on a job: off-street or easy parking, a living room the lads can actually sit in, and two bathrooms when there are five or more in the crew. Anything damp, tired or landlord-flaky doesn't make the list. We also check broadband reach street by street — village coverage is good here, but we confirm the actual line to the door before check-in.
Great and Little Broughton draw crews working across North Yorkshire and Teesside rather than to one big site. Housing development continues around Stokesley and the villages to the north, while construction, maintenance and logistics work runs through the Teesside area within an easy commute. Some crews are here for weeks, some for months, so we match the let length to the job programme rather than forcing either side to gamble.
There is also steady demand from the food and agricultural supply chain around the edge of the moors, and from grid and utility maintenance crews covering the rural roads. The pattern is familiar: a mix of shorter refurbs and longer-running projects, which suits monthly-invoiced crew houses far better than hotel bookings. Refurbishment and fit-out teams working through the villages south of the moors are regular customers for exactly that reason.
The A19 is the main artery — it runs north to Middlesbrough and Teesside and south toward the A1(M), and the A172 links back up through Stokesley. From either village you're typically 15–25 minutes from most Teesside sites depending on traffic. Stokesley itself is a five-minute run north for the shops, and Middlesbrough's supermarkets and suppliers are well within reach of an evening.
When a job sits further afield, we shortlist houses by real drive time from the site rather than crow-flies distance, so the lads aren't losing an hour each end of the day. Rural North Yorkshire roads can be slow in winter, and we account for that when we propose a house. If the job moves mid-contract, we re-run the shortlist from the new site rather than leaving the crew with a bad commute.
You get the whole house or flat — not rooms in someone's spare B&B. Council tax, gas, electric, water and broadband all stay in our name, Wi-Fi is speed-tested before check-in, and we check the parking against the actual vehicles you're bringing. There's a proper washing machine and dryer too — small things, but they decide whether a crew house feels like digs or like home by week two.
Five or more in the crew means two bathrooms as standard, and a weekly clean with fresh linen keeps the place decent on longer jobs. Maintenance comes to us, you get one monthly invoice, paid by card, no booking fees and no minimum crew or stay. The shortest bookings we run are a week or two; the longest stretch past a year. Rates are quoted per house, not per head.
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.
Usually within two working days of your enquiry. Tell us where the site is and how many people you're placing, and we'll come back with a shortlist of whole houses around the Broughtons, Stokesley and the surrounding villages within about two hours, with availability confirmed before you commit.
Yes. We cover Great and Little Broughton plus Stokesley, Swainby, Hutton Rudby and the surrounding villages. If the site is further into the moors we'll still shortlist by drive time and suggest whichever base keeps the commute shortest, even if that means a different village.
It's one of the first things we check. Most of the semis and detached houses around the Broughtons have a drive, and we verify the parking against the vehicles you tell us about before proposing a house — so you're not arriving to find room for one Fiesta.
Yes. Council tax, gas, electric, water and broadband stay in our name and are included in the rate. We speed-test the Wi-Fi before your crew checks in, so anyone working from the kitchen table on a wet Monday isn't left hanging.
That's how we work as standard. One monthly invoice covering the rent and all bills, paid by card, with no booking fees or extras bolted on at the end. Your accounts team deals with one line item per month instead of a stack of hotel receipts.
We do. Your crew reports it to us, and our contractors sort it — boiler, leak, lock, whatever it is. Nobody on site has to chase a private landlord, and nothing gets deducted from your invoice while you're a guest in the house.

If Great and Little Broughton is short on the right house for your crew, Middlesbrough is the obvious back-up, roughly 10 miles away. See our contractor accommodation Middlesbrough page for what we hold there. Small crews are as welcome as big ones.
