Great Missenden, South East • England
Great Missenden is a village in the Chiltern Hills in Buckinghamshire, in the South East of England, in the HP postcode area. It sits on the A413 between Amersham and Wendover, within reach of the M25 and the M40. KrewBase arranges whole serviced houses and flats for crews working around Great Missenden — bills in our name, Wi-Fi tested before check-in, and one monthly invoice.
Great Missenden is a Chilterns village of brick and flint cottages, period houses along the old A413, and a fringe of newer properties towards Prestwood and the surrounding lanes. Stock for crews is thinner here than in the towns, so we typically shortlist slightly further afield — Prestwood, Holmer Green, Amersham's edges and the villages along the A413 — where semis and detached houses bring the drives and space crews need.
Whatever the location, every house is checked in person before you see it: parking against the real vehicles, heating that copes with a frosty Chilterns morning, and bathrooms and kitchen fit for a working week. We tell you plainly how far each option sits from your site, because a pretty village lane is no use if the drive to the gate takes an hour.
The A413 and A355 corridor between Amersham, Great Missenden and Wendover sees steady construction and housing development, with school, healthcare and estate work scattered through the Chiltern villages. The wider South East adds infrastructure, utilities and logistics contracts, and crews working across Buckinghamshire and the western Home Counties often base up here for access to the M25 and M40 without paying town prices.
We keep it generic by design — no client names, no invented projects. Whoever the contract is with, we match the house to the site and the shift pattern. Because the work is spread thin across the villages, we often place one crew centrally between several small sites rather than chasing the nearest roofline, which keeps the week's total driving shorter even if the house itself sits a village or two away.
The A413 runs south to Amersham and the M25 junction within about fifteen minutes, and north to Wendover and the A41 beyond. The A355 links to Beaconsfield and the M40, and Amersham station on the Metropolitan and Chiltern lines serves crew members coming from London. High Wycombe is roughly eight miles west, Aylesbury about ten miles north. The A41 beyond Wendover opens the road north towards Aylesbury and the Midlands when the job heads that way.
Chiltern lanes can be slow behind tractors and school traffic, so we shortlist by real drive time at shift-start, not map distance, and we will talk through the honest morning route for each property before you book. If your site sits off the beaten lane, tell us the access constraints as well — some village streets were never built for long vehicles, and we plan around that.
The crew gets the whole property — no shared hallways, no hotel rules. Every bill is in our name: gas, electric, water, council tax and broadband, with Wi-Fi speed-tested before anyone arrives. Parking is verified in person against your vehicles, and for crews of five or more we look for two bathrooms as standard. The kitchen comes equipped for cooking proper meals, not just reheating something at the end of a shift.
Weekly cleaning and linen can be added for longer jobs, and maintenance is ours to deal with — the crew reports it, we fix it, your project manager hears nothing. You receive one monthly invoice, paid by card, no booking fees, and no minimum crew or stay length. That includes the small repairs most landlords dodge, dealt with before they turn into crew complaints.
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.
With the site postcode, headcount and dates we return a shortlist within two working hours. Village stock is limited, so we usually also present options in Prestwood, Amersham and along the A413 — each with honest drive times so you can weigh cost against commute.
Yes — Prestwood, Holmer Green, South Heath, Hyde Heath and towards Amersham and Wendover all come into the search. If the right house for your crew sits in a nearby village rather than Great Missenden itself, we show you the real drive to site before you decide.
We check every shortlisted property in person against the vehicles your crew brings. Chiltern cottages can be tight, so we lean towards semis and detached houses with drives, and anything needing street parking is flagged before you commit, not after.
All of them — gas, electric, water, council tax and broadband are in our name and in the rate. The Wi-Fi is speed-tested before check-in, and you receive one monthly invoice covering the whole crew with nothing to reconcile at the end.
Yes, that is standard practice for us. One monthly invoice to your company, card payment, no booking fees, with purchase order or cost-centre references added if your finance team needs them. The crew never fronts deposits or has to claim accommodation back through expenses.
Three things: the site postcode, the number of people, and the start and likely end dates. With those we can shortlist within two hours. It also helps to know shift patterns and vehicle count, so parking and layout are right from day one.
