Hollinswood, West Midlands • England
Hollinswood sits on the eastern side of Telford in Shropshire, England, in the TF postcode area, a short drive from the town centre and the Hortonwood business estates. KrewBase places working crews in whole serviced houses and flats here, with bills in our name and one monthly invoice to your company. Whether the job is a fortnight of fitting out around Hortonwood or a six-month scheme across Telford, we shortlist real properties by drive time from site and have crews checked in fast.
Hollinswood, Randlay and Priorslee were built out as Telford grew through the 1970s and 80s, so the housing stock is solid and practical: three-bed semis with driveways, terraces with proper back gardens, and quiet cul-de-sacs where a couple of crew vans don't draw complaints. That's exactly what we filter for. We shortlist whole houses within a sensible drive of the Hortonwood and Stafford Park employment areas, checking for off-street parking, a second loo or bathroom for bigger crews, and space to dry wet gear overnight.
Closer to Telford town centre and along the A442 corridor you'll also find older terraces and converted flats that suit smaller crews of two to four. Wherever we place people, the house has to pass the same checks: heating that copes with a West Midlands winter, a kitchen that seats the whole crew, and parking measured against the vehicles actually turning up, not the brochure.
Telford keeps a busy mix going, and most of it needs people on the ground rather than at desks. Warehousing and distribution around Hortonwood and Stafford Park, manufacturing on the town's industrial estates, housing development on the edges, and steady local infrastructure and maintenance work all pull in crews from outside the area. The hospitals and healthcare sites across Shropshire run on travelling staff as well, and there's a constant run of construction and trade jobs through the wider West Midlands belt.
What that means for you is simple: we don't need convincing that crews here stay for real durations, from a couple of weeks commissioning a line to six months on a site. Tell us the industry, the rough headcount and the shift pattern, and we'll match the property to the job rather than the other way round. Night shifts are no problem — keys in a lockbox, quiet streets for daytime sleep.
Hollinswood sits east of Telford town centre, handy for the A4169 and the A442, and the M54 is minutes away for anything further afield — Wolverhampton is roughly 15 miles, Birmingham around 30, and Shrewsbury about 18 to the west. Telford Central station on the Birmingham to Shrewsbury line gives crew members without vehicles a way in and out, and there's local bus coverage around the estates.
If your site is somewhere we don't know the run to, we don't guess — we shortlist by drive time from the actual site address at the hour your shift starts, not off a map pin. That matters on a stretch like the M54 or the A5 at eight in the morning, where a mile can be five minutes. The shortlist shows each house against its realistic commute, so you book on the drive you'll actually do.
Every house is let whole to your crew — nobody shares with strangers — and every bill goes in our name, not yours. Wi-Fi is speed-tested before check-in, parking is checked against the vehicles turning up, and crews of five or more get two bathrooms so the morning queue stays short. A weekly clean and fresh linen come as standard, and any maintenance goes straight to us, not to whoever's on earlies.
You get one monthly invoice covering rent, bills, council tax, Wi-Fi, cleaning and linen, paid by card if your accounts team wants them — simple to process, nothing to top up or reconcile. There are no booking fees and no minimum crew or stay. Send the site address and start date and we'll have a shortlist of real, available houses around Hollinswood back to you within two hours.
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 two hours of getting your site address, headcount and start date, we'll send a shortlist of whole serviced houses that are actually available, each with a realistic drive to site at shift-start time. You pick, we hold it, and keys are ready for check-in on the agreed date — often within 48 hours for standard moves.
Hollinswood itself plus Randlay, Priorslee, Donnington, St Georges and the rest of Telford, stretching out to Wellington, Shifnal and the M54 corridor if the job needs it. The shortlist always starts from your site address and drive time, so we cover wherever the crew actually needs to be.
Yes — parking is one of the first things we check. Telford's estate housing usually brings driveways and garages, and we measure spaces against the actual vehicles turning up. If a house on the shortlist can't fit your vans, it doesn't make the shortlist.
Everything — rent, council tax, gas, electric, water and broadband — sits in our name and goes on one monthly invoice. We speed-test the Wi-Fi before check-in and fix any faults through our own maintenance route, so the crew never has to argue with a supplier.
One invoice a month covering rent, bills, cleaning and linen, sent to your accounts team paid by card if you need them. No booking fees, no deposit surprises, and no per-person nightly rates to reconcile. Extension weeks simply roll onto the same invoice.
Almost always, yes. Because we let whole properties rather than nightly rooms, an overrun usually just rolls onto the next month's invoice. Give us as much notice as you can and we'll confirm the extension in writing the same day, so the crew always knows where it stands.
