Grimston, Yorkshire and the Humber • England
Grimston is a small village in the LS postcode area, tucked between Wetherby and Leeds in West Yorkshire, close to the A58. There's no high street to speak of — just good stone houses, quick access to the A1(M), and a handy position for crews working across Leeds, Wetherby, Harrogate or York. KrewBase puts crews up in whole serviced houses here, bills in our name, one monthly invoice.
Grimston itself is a handful of streets — handsome stone-built houses, a working farm or two, and newer family homes on the village edges. Crews based here usually take the larger semis and detached houses, which offer the drive space and spare rooms that terraced town-centre lets can't. The village sits back from the main road, so nights are quiet — a real plus for crews on early starts or late finishes.
We shortlist strictly: parking verified against your vehicles, decent-sized kitchen and living room, and two bathrooms once the crew hits five. Where the village itself has nothing suitable, we widen to nearby Wetherby, Thorner and Bardsey without moving the crew's commute by more than ten minutes. Photos, bathroom count and parking details come with every proposal, so you can sign off a house without a site visit.
Grimston sits in the corridor between Leeds, Wetherby, Harrogate and York, so crews here serve a wide spread of work: construction and housing development across the Leeds fringe, the distribution and light-industrial businesses around Wetherby and the A1(M), and the maintenance and healthcare contracts that run through the district towns. Small inspection and snagging teams pass through just as often as the big trades.
It's also a sensible base for crews on rotation — jobs around York to the east or Harrogate to the north are comfortably inside a daily drive, so one house covers a changing list of sites without rebooking. It's the kind of spot where a project manager can leave the crew for a month and know the house will still be standing straight when they come back.
The A58 runs past the village toward Wetherby one way and Leeds the other, and the A1(M) at Wetherby is about five minutes up the road — from there the motorway network opens north to Harrogate, York and beyond. Leeds city centre is roughly 25 minutes in typical traffic. Harrogate is a quarter of an hour north and York half an hour east, both straight runs.
The nearest rail is at Leeds for mainline connections; locally it's a driving area. That's why we always shortlist by actual drive time from your site rather than distance, and we'll flag honestly if another village gives the crew a shorter run. The A1(M) link also makes crew changeovers simple — new arrivals can reach the house from the motorway network without touching city traffic.
The crew gets the whole property — kitchen, living room, garden, the lot. Council tax, gas, electric, water and broadband stay in our name, and the Wi-Fi is tested before check-in so it's working on day one, not week two. Furniture, cookware, bedding — it's all there before the first night, so nobody's driving up with a van full of kettles. The heating's on and the beds are made.
There's a weekly clean with fresh linen, maintenance comes straight to us, and your company gets one monthly invoice, paid by card. No booking fees, and no minimum crew or stay — two people for a fortnight is as welcome as twenty for six months. Extensions are a phone call, not a renegotiation, if the job overruns. The arrangement stays the same whatever the crew size.
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.
Within about two hours of your enquiry, usually. Give us the site postcode, headcount and dates, and we'll send available whole houses in Grimston and the surrounding villages with parking, bathrooms and photos listed. Check-in is typically possible within two working days.
Yes, we cover Wetherby, Thorner, Bardsey, Scarcroft and the rest of the LS23 patch. Grimston itself has limited stock, so we treat the village and its neighbours as one area and shortlist wherever the commute works best. The whole LS23 patch works as one area for us.
That's exactly what we check before proposing a house. Village houses here usually come with drives or generous frontages, and we verify the space against the vehicles you list at enquiry — nobody should arrive to find they've been promised a parking fairy tale.
Yes — council tax, gas, electric, water and broadband are all in our name and included in the rate. The Wi-Fi is speed-tested before check-in, and there's a weekly clean with fresh linen on longer stays. The quoted rate is the invoiced rate.
No. a small crew on a short job gets the same service as a big crew on a long one. The setup is identical either way: whole house, bills in, one monthly invoice. Small maintenance or inspection teams book with us all the time. Solo engineers book with us too.
We do. Boiler, leak, lock, appliance — your crew reports it to us and our contractors fix it. There's no private landlord to chase and nothing gets passed to your site team to sort on a Sunday. And we keep the landlord relationship entirely on our side of the fence.
