Hexham, North East • England
Hexham is a market town in Northumberland, in the NE postcode area on the A69 in the Tyne Valley, roughly twenty-five miles west of Newcastle. It's a natural base for crews working the valley, the countryside beyond and the city commute. KrewBase provides whole serviced crew houses — bills, Wi-Fi and parking in, with one monthly invoice going to your company and no per-person charges.
Hexham's streets mix handsome stone terraces in the town centre with semis and detached houses in the estates and villages around it — Acomb, Warden and Haydon Bridge are all within an easy drive. Crews usually land best in the outlying semis: bigger kitchens, driveways for vans, and none of the town-centre parking grief. We filter every property for genuine off-street parking, heating that handles a Northumberland winter, broadband worth the name and enough bathrooms for the headcount.
Crews in Hexham cover a wide patch — housing development and renovation in and around the town, road and rail maintenance along the A69 and the Tyne Valley line, utility and grid work across rural Northumberland, and agriculture-related and forestry jobs further out. Some crews split the week between valley sites and Newcastle. Wherever the work, the pattern's the same: a settled house beats a different hotel every few weeks.
The A69 is the main artery — Newcastle around twenty-five miles east, Carlisle about thirty-five west — and the A686 heads north towards Alston and the Pennines. Hexham station on the Tyne Valley Line gives a rail option into Newcastle without a car. For the scattered rural sites this area throws up, we shortlist by tested drive time rather than map distance, because a lane that looks short can add twenty minutes in winter.
Your crew takes the whole house, bills in our name — gas, electric, water, council tax and broadband, with Wi-Fi speed-tested before anyone moves in. Parking is confirmed against the actual vehicles, five or more get two bathrooms, and a weekly clean with fresh linen comes as standard. Maintenance is down to us. Your company pays one monthly invoice, paid by card, no booking fees, no minimum crew size and 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.
Send us the site location, headcount and start date and you'll have a shortlist within two working hours. Hexham stock includes good semis in town and in the surrounding villages, and most crews are matched within a few days. We can hold a house for a short window while your dates firm up.
Yes — Acomb, Warden, Haydon Bridge and the NE postcode villages up and down the Tyne Valley are all in scope. We'll quote each option with a tested drive time to your site so you can weigh a bigger house against a longer run, which matters on valley lanes in winter.
We verify parking at every shortlisted property against your real vehicles — van lengths included. Around Hexham that usually means a driveway or a generous rear yard, and you'll know the exact arrangement before check-in. If a property can't take your vehicles, it never reaches your shortlist.
We plan around your rota: staggered keys, cleaning scheduled to suit sleeping crew, and houses where coming in at 3am won't wake the street. Tell us the shift pattern at enquiry stage and we'll shortlist accordingly — night crews are a normal part of our work, not an awkward extra.
Site postcode or nearest landmark, crew size, start date and rough duration — that's it. We'll come back with matched options and a single monthly rate covering rent, bills, Wi-Fi, cleaning and linen paid by card. No site visit is needed and there's no obligation until you pick a house.
In most cases, yes. Jobs slip and we plan for it — flag the new dates as soon as you know them and we'll extend on the same terms if the property is free. Your invoice just continues monthly, and your crew stays put rather than packing up for another hotel.

If Hexham is short on the right house for your crew, Newcastle is the obvious back-up, roughly 19 miles away. See our contractor accommodation Newcastle page for what we hold there. Small crews are as welcome as big ones.
