Holt, East of England • England
Holt is a Georgian market town in north Norfolk, in England's East of England region, in the NR postcode area, a few miles inland from the coast and within reach of the A148 linking Cromer and King's Lynn. KrewBase houses contractor crews across this part of Norfolk in whole serviced properties: bills, council tax and Wi-Fi in our name, parking verified for vans, and one monthly invoice for the company. Coastal and rural jobs still deserve a proper house to come back to.
Holt itself is known for Georgian brick and flint cottages, but the housing that actually works for crews sits in the post-war semis and newer estates around the town and in the larger villages along the A148 and towards the coast. We look for driveways, gardens and space for kit — and we skip the pretty-but-impractical cottages with parking for one small car. Gardens and sheds earn their keep when there's waders and kit to store.
Every property is checked against the real vehicles on the job before it's offered, because a shortlist that can't park the vans is no shortlist at all. We also check heating type and flag anything unusual before check-in, because a north Norfolk winter in a draughty cottage teaches lessons nobody asked for. It's a two-minute check that saves weeks of grief.
Crews come to north Norfolk for housing development and construction in the market towns, coastal defence and infrastructure work along the shore, and the ongoing programme of maintenance on older housing stock across the district. Tourism-season refits bring their own wave of fit-out crews. We host crews working across the East of England and set each stay up around the contract's dates.
The A148 is the main road here, running east towards Cromer and west towards Fakenham and King's Lynn, with the A149 coast road linking the seaside villages. The nearest rail is on the Bittern Line at Sheringham or Cromer, connecting to Norwich. Rural Norfolk commutes are about drive time, not miles, so we shortlist by journey from the site postcode — and we know the difference a single-carriageway makes.
The crew gets the whole house, with council tax, gas, electric, water and broadband all in our name. Wi-Fi is speed-tested before check-in, crews of five or more get two bathrooms, and the weekly clean and fresh linen come as standard. Maintenance is ours to handle. A photographed inventory at handover keeps everyone's deposit safe. The house should feel sorted from day one.
Your company gets one monthly invoice, paid by card — no booking fees, no minimum stay, no minimum crew. Give us the site postcode and headcount and we'll come back with options. If dates shift, tell us and we'll move the stay — job timelines slip, and our paperwork is built to cope. Extending is routine, not a favour, and rates stay the same.
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.
Both, depending on what's available for your dates. Holt has workable crew housing but stock is thinner than a city, so the shortlist often draws on the villages along the A148 and towards the coast. It's all matched by drive time from the site postcode.
Within about two hours of getting the site postcode and crew size. Rural stock means we'd always rather hear early, but same-day shortlists are normal and most crews are in the property within the week. If stock is thin, we say so and widen the radius with your agreement.
Yes. We shortlist properties where arriving back at 6am isn't a problem — off-road parking by the door, no shared entrances, sensible layouts. Mention the shift pattern at enquiry and it shapes the shortlist. We also flag the nearest 24-hour fuel on the handover sheet.
We speed-test the broadband before check-in and only hand over properties that pass. Rural Norfolk can be variable, which is exactly why we test rather than assume. The connection is in our name and included in the rate. If a property can't reach a usable speed, we simply don't offer it.
Everything — rent, council tax, utilities, broadband, cleaning, linen — rolls into one monthly invoice for your company paid by card. No booking fees and no mid-stay bill surprises. Multiple properties can be combined or split across cost codes. Ask about combining sites on one bill.
Extending is routine. Once you know the new phase dates, a quick message usually sorts it, and if crew numbers change we'll adjust the setup. There's no penalty culture around jobs running long — that's construction. If the property is booked after you, we'll find an equivalent and move you cleanly.
