Killichonan, Scotland • Scotland
On the north shore of Loch Rannoch you will find Killichonan — a tiny hamlet in Highland Perthshire, Scotland, in the PH postcode area, remote even by Highland standards, with Rannoch Moor in every direction. Work in this part of the world means hydro schemes, forestry and long road distances, and a village B&B cannot take a crew for weeks. KrewBase rents whole serviced houses and flats with the bills in our name, so your people get a proper base and your accounts one monthly invoice.
Killichonan itself is a handful of cottages on the lochside, so whole-house lets there are rare — when one fits, it is usually a traditional stone cottage with a garden and room for a van off the single-track road. More often we place crews around Kinloch Rannoch, Rannoch Station or Pitlochry, where there is a wider mix of detached houses, semis and flats. Wherever it is, we check parking, heating that copes with a Highland winter and broadband that genuinely works.
This part of the Highlands sees long-running work in renewable energy and grid connections, forestry and land management, and the constant job of keeping roads and bridges serviceable through the seasons. Estates and outdoor centres bring maintenance and improvement work too. Crews working across Perthshire need somewhere warm, dry and properly equipped for weeks at a stretch — which is exactly what a serviced whole-house let is built for.
Let us be straight: everything up here is a drive. The B846 runs along the north shore of the loch, the A9 at Pitlochry is the nearest main artery at roughly twenty-five miles, and Fort William and Perth are each well over an hour away. So we do not fuss about village boundaries — give us the site location and we shortlist by honest drive time, and we check the fuel and parking work for the vehicles you are bringing before you book.
Every let is the whole property, with gas, electric, water, council tax and broadband in our name. Wi-Fi is tested before check-in — we know signal is patchy in the glens, so we check the actual address, not the postcode promise. Parking is matched to your vehicles, a house sleeping five or more gets two bathrooms, and a weekly clean keeps the place decent.
Maintenance comes to us, not to your crew and not to a landlord you have never met. You get one monthly invoice paid by card, no booking fees and no minimum crew size. Send the site postcode and we will tell you realistically what we can place, and where. If the honest answer is the next glen over, that is where we look first.
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.
Stock around Loch Rannoch is thin, so we work the whole glen — Kinloch Rannoch, Rannoch Station and down towards Pitlochry — and we usually come back with options within a couple of hours of your enquiry. We will be honest if nothing fits your dates rather than leaving you chasing.
Killichonan and Kinloch Rannoch on the loch, Rannoch Station and the moor to the west, and Pitlochry to the east. For longer jobs we also look at Aberfeldy and the Tay valley. It depends where your site actually is, and we shortlist by drive time rather than drawing lines on a map.
It will if we have placed it. Heating capability is one of the first things we check in Highland properties — decent boilers, working fireplaces where they exist and insulation that is up to the job. A cold house with a temperamental heater does not make our shortlist, whatever the rent.
Yes. Gas, electric, water, council tax and broadband are all in our name and covered in the rate. Broadband in particular is checked at the address before check-in, because speeds vary street by street in the glens. There are no accounts for your crew to open and no final-bill arguments.
That is the standard arrangement. Your business receives a single monthly invoice covering rent and every bill, paid by card, with no booking fees. It does not matter whether the crew is two people or ten — one invoice, one supplier, one payment run for your accounts team.
Because there is barely a hotel here, and rack rates in the Highlands punish long stays. A whole house gives your crew a kitchen, a washing machine, space for kit and a place to actually live for weeks at a time — and it usually costs less per person per week than three meals and rooms in the nearest town.

Killichonan sits about 55 miles from Inverness. Plenty of crews working here base themselves in the city and drive out, especially on longer jobs or when the local supply is thin. Our contractor accommodation Inverness page covers houses across the wider area — two people or twenty, same service.
