Honiton, South West • England
Right where the A30 meets the A35 a few miles west of the Dorset border, Honiton is a market town in east Devon in the EX postcode area. Its long high street and position on the Exeter–Dorchester route make it a natural base for crews spread across the south-west corridor. KrewBase supplies whole serviced houses and flats in and around Honiton, bills, Wi-Fi and parking all in, with everything charged to your company on one monthly invoice.
Honiton has a good spread of stock for a town its size: Victorian terraces and older townhouses near the high street, 1930s semis on the roads towards the station, and post-war estates with detached and semi-detached houses on the town's edge at places like Monkton and Gittisham Hill. For crews we usually favour the semis and estate houses — driveways, gardens, two bathrooms — over the tighter terraces, unless the job is walkable from the centre. Every property is checked for parking, heating and a kitchen that can handle batch cooking.
Honiton sits on one of the busiest work corridors in the region. Construction and housing development run constantly around the town and along the A30 towards Exeter, while the A35 carries crews towards Axminster, Lyme Regis and Dorset. There's a strong manufacturing and food-production presence in east Devon, plus the usual utility, highways and telecoms contracts keeping vans moving along both routes. Healthcare and care-sector agencies book with us here too. Tell us the site and the shift pattern — that's all we need to place the stay properly.
Location is the town's big selling point for crews: the A30 runs straight past, taking you to Exeter in around twenty-five minutes, while the A35 heads east to Axminster in ten and on towards Dorchester. Honiton has its own station on the Waterloo to Exeter line, handy for crew arriving from London or Salisbury. Because the two A-roads cross here, we can usually put a crew within fifteen minutes of almost any site on the corridor — send us the postcode and we'll prove it with drive times.
Each booking is a whole property let to your company, with gas, electric, water, council tax and broadband all in our name. Wi-Fi is speed-tested before check-in, parking is checked against your actual vehicles, and crews of five or more get two bathrooms as a matter of course. Weekly cleaning and fresh linen keep the house straight, and maintenance issues come straight to KrewBase. Your accounts team receives one monthly invoice, paid by card — no booking fees, no per-night extras, no crew member ever putting bills on a personal card.
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.
Two working hours from a clear brief: site postcode, headcount, dates and shift pattern. Honiton's position on the A30/A35 means we can usually offer properties both in town and in nearby villages like Dunkeswell, Awliscombe or towards Ottery St Mary, all timed against your actual site.
Yes — short bookings are normal, and the minimums some operators impose don't exist with us. A two-week roofing or snagging job gets the same bills-in, Wi-Fi-tested, one-invoice service as a six-month contract. If the job extends, extending the house is usually straightforward.
Yes, and it's verified rather than assumed. Before check-in we confirm how many vehicles you're bringing and their size, then match a property whose driveway or off-road space genuinely fits them. Vans on the street outside a Honiton terrace is a situation we aim to avoid entirely.
We do — literally. Gas, electric, water, council tax and broadband are all in KrewBase's name, so there's nothing for the crew to set up, top up or argue about. The cost is already inside your single monthly invoice, which keeps it clean for accounts and painless for the lads.
Constantly — that's the point of the town. A Honiton house can serve sites at either end of the corridor: Exeter westwards, Axminster and the Dorset border eastwards. Give us the site postcode and we'll shortlist whichever side of town cuts the drive, sometimes saving the crew half an hour a day each way.
Site postcode or location, crew size and a rough rooming split, start and end dates, and the shift pattern if it's nights or early starts. With those five things we return a priced, photographed shortlist the same day — no forms, no deposit demanded upfront.
