Kingswood, South West • England
Kingswood, in Gloucestershire in the South West of England, is a small village in the Cotswold fringe near Wotton-under-Edge, in the GL postcode area, with the M5 only a few miles west. Crews working the Berkeley Vale or commuting towards Bristol often base in this corner because it's quiet and quick to get out of. KrewBase houses crews in whole serviced properties around Kingswood and the nearby towns — bills in our name, Wi-Fi tested before arrival, one monthly invoice.
The Cotswold fringe villages run to golden-stone cottages and farmhouses, but for crews the practical stock is the post-war and modern semis and detached houses in Kingswood itself and in Wotton-under-Edge and Dursley nearby. Those bring driveways, garages, gardens — the things a working crew actually needs. We skip the pretty-but-impractical cottages in favour of houses that can take two or three vans, and every shortlist is checked in person: parking proven, heating that works, bathrooms in proportion to the headcount, and a landlord at ease with working tenants.
Work here comes from several directions: construction and housing development in the Vale towns, the big employers of the M5 corridor around its nearest junction, utilities and grid maintenance across the rural vale, and healthcare rotas into the local towns and towards Bristol. Crews on regional contracts covering the vale and the lower Cotswolds often find a base here gives them the shortest average drive of anywhere — which is precisely how we place crews: from the site outwards, not from a town name.
The M5's junction 14 is a few minutes west, opening the motorway north and south, and the A4135 threads through the local towns towards Dursley, Wotton and the vale beyond. Bristol is under half an hour in good traffic; Gloucester a similar run north. There's no station in Kingswood itself, so crews are van-based here — all the more reason parking is the first thing we check. We shortlist on measured drive time at shift start, because the M5 junctions can queue badly at peak and a house that looks closer can lose ten minutes to one that's smarter placed.
Your crew gets the whole property — no sharing with strangers, no landlord living upstairs. Bills for gas, electricity, water, council tax and broadband stay in KrewBase's name and inside your monthly rate. Wi-Fi is tested before check-in, parking is confirmed against your real vehicles, and any house sleeping five or more has two bathrooms. A weekly clean and fresh linen keep the place decent, maintenance comes to us 24/7, and your accounts team gets one monthly invoice, paid by card — no booking fees, no minimum crew or stay.
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 your enquiry — site postcode, headcount and dates in, shortlisted whole properties out, each with the drive time to site attached. Check-in is usually same-day or next-day once you've picked, since our houses are serviced and ready.
Wherever the honest drive to site is shortest — that could be Kingswood itself, Wotton-under-Edge, Dursley or one of the vale villages. You'll see the reasoning next to each shortlisted property, so your office can see exactly why each house was chosen.
Yes, and it's verified in person before we offer anything, not read off a listing. Modern houses here typically have driveways or garages for two or three vans; stone cottages on narrow lanes we avoid for multi-van crews. If your vans don't fit, the house isn't on the list.
Rent, all utility bills, council tax, broadband, the weekly clean and linen change, and all maintenance through the stay. Payment is paid by card, there are no booking fees, and nothing is paid by crew members out of pocket — one invoice goes to your company.
Yes. We schedule the weekly clean around the crew's sleep pattern and favour properties where coming and going at odd hours won't bother neighbours. Just tell us the shift pattern when you enquire and we'll factor it into which houses we shortlist.
We do, at our cost and at our speed. The crew reports a problem, we dispatch our maintenance contact, and your site manager never has to phone a landlord about a boiler, a lock or a leaking tap — those calls are what we're here to absorb.
