Irvine, Scotland • Scotland
Irvine sits on the Ayrshire coast in Scotland, in the KA postcode area, a short run up the coast from Ayr and well placed for work across North Ayrshire. KrewBase houses crews working in and around Irvine in whole serviced houses and flats — not hotel rooms. Every property comes with bills in our name, tested Wi-Fi, checked parking and one monthly invoice to your company, so your crew gets on with the job and your office gets one simple line of paperwork.
Irvine is a planned new town wrapped around an older harbour settlement, and the housing reflects that mix: post-war estates with good parking, modern family homes off the newer developments, and traditional stone terraces closer to the old town and the coast. Crews tend to do best in the estate streets and newer semis, where driveways and on-street bays mean vans can be parked properly and the neighbours aren't on top of you. We filter for houses with real space for kit, a garden or yard for drying wet gear, and two bathrooms where the crew is five or more.
Every property is walked in person before it reaches a shortlist — parking checked against the actual vehicles, kitchen and laundry tested, broadband speed measured, and the heating fired up to make sure it actually works. What you approve is what your crew checks into, with no surprises on night one and no gap between the listing and the reality on the ground.
Crews come to Irvine and the surrounding North Ayrshire area for a spread of trades: construction and housing development on the town's edge, maintenance and upgrade work across older housing stock, logistics runs through the central belt, and infrastructure jobs along the coast. Healthcare and public-sector contractors also pass through, supporting services across the wider region. Whatever the contract, the pattern is the same — crews need a proper base for weeks or months, not a Travelodge on repeat. That's the gap KrewBase fills, with serviced houses that work as well on a Tuesday night as a weekend.
Irvine links onto the A71 towards Kilmarnock and the wider central belt, with the A737 connecting up the coast through Kilwinning and towards the Johnstone and Paisley corridor. Ayr is a short drive south, Glasgow is reachable within the hour on a clear run, and the railway from Irvine station gives crew members without vans a practical option for trips further afield. If your site is somewhere specific, tell us where and we'll shortlist houses on real drive times rather than guesswork.
KrewBase lets the whole property to your company — no room-by-room bookings, no strangers sharing with your crew. All bills go in our name, Wi-Fi is speed-tested before check-in, and parking is checked against the actual vehicles turning up, not a brochure photo. Homes sleeping five or more get two bathrooms as standard, and a weekly clean with fresh linen keeps the place decent on long jobs. Maintenance is our problem, not your foreman's. You get one monthly invoice, paid by card, with no booking fees and no minimum crew size — two people for a fortnight is as welcome as twenty for six months.
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.
Tell us the headcount, site location and dates, and we aim to have a shortlist of suitable houses or flats in Irvine back to you within two working hours. Once you pick one, we can usually have the paperwork done and the crew checked in within a couple of days, sometimes sooner if the job's urgent.
Anywhere practical for the job. In Irvine we look at the estate areas and newer developments first for parking and space, but we also cover Kilwinning, Stevenston, Saltcoats and the surrounding Ayrshire towns. Give us the site postcode and we'll work outwards from there on real drive times.
Yes — we check parking against the actual vehicles before check-in, so if three Transit-size vans are turning up, the house we send has drive space or reliable on-street bays for all three. Parking is part of the property spec, verified in person, not an afterthought on arrival day.
Everything is in the rent: gas, electric, council tax, water and broadband, all in our name so nobody on site touches a meter reading. Wi-Fi is speed-tested before your crew arrives, and it all lands on one monthly invoice to your company at the end of the month.
That's how every booking works. One monthly invoice goes to your accounts team paid by card, with no booking fees and no per-person extras. Most companies find it far easier than reimbursing hotel stays and meal allowances across a whole crew working in the Irvine area.
Just personal kit and work gear. Houses come furnished with beds, cooking equipment, a washing machine, tested Wi-Fi and a weekly linen change. We need the crew list and vehicle details before check-in, and after that your team simply turns up and gets on with the job.

If Irvine is short on the right house for your crew, Glasgow is the obvious back-up, roughly 24 miles away. See our contractor accommodation Glasgow page for what we hold there. Small crews are as welcome as big ones.
