Levington, East of England • England
Levington is a small village on the Suffolk bank of the Orwell, in the IP postcode area, sitting on the A14 corridor between Ipswich and Felixstowe. It is farming country that also happens to be freight country, and crews on logistics, construction and maintenance work along the corridor often end up looking for a base here. KrewBase lets whole serviced houses with the bills in our name — utilities, council tax, Wi-Fi — and your company gets one monthly invoice, however long the job runs.
Levington itself is tiny, so most crews are housed in the surrounding villages and the edges of Ipswich: Nacton and Trimley to the east, Bucklesham and Kirton to the north, and the estates on the south-eastern side of Ipswich. The stock is mostly semis, terraces and newer detached houses with driveways — exactly the sort of property that suits a crew, with gardens for kit and space for vans. We shortlist only houses that pass our checks on bathrooms, parking and broadband speed.
The corridor between Ipswich and Felixstowe is one of the busiest freight routes in the region, and where there is freight there is work: logistics and warehousing, vehicle and site maintenance, construction along the growth corridor, and the utilities work that keeps it all running. Crews also use this area as a base for jobs across south-east Suffolk, with Ipswich close enough for hospital and town-centre work without living on top of it.
The A14 is the spine of the area: over the Orwell Bridge it is a short run west into Ipswich, or east towards Felixstowe. The A12 branches north from the Ipswich side towards Woodbridge and Lowestoft. Trimley station and Derby Road station give local rail options, with Ipswich station the main hub for trains across the region. Send us the site postcode and we will measure drive times at the hours your crew actually travels, then shortlist houses that keep the commute honest.
Every let is the whole property, with council tax, gas, electric, water and broadband in our name. We test the Wi-Fi before check-in and require two bathrooms for crews of five or more. A weekly clean and fresh linen are included, maintenance goes to us rather than the crew, and there are no booking fees. Your company receives one monthly invoice, paid by card, whether the stay is a fortnight or the best part of a year, and small crews get the same service as large ones.
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.
Within two working hours of receiving the site postcode, crew size and start date. We verify drive times at your crew's actual working hours, check parking against your vehicles and confirm bathroom counts, so the shortlist you receive is made of houses that genuinely fit rather than everything within a ten-mile circle.
Nacton, Trimley, Bucklesham, Kirton, Brightwell and the south-eastern edge of Ipswich, depending on where the site sits. Levington itself is small, so the workable stock is usually in the neighbouring villages — we will tell you straight which side of the corridor gives the shorter commute for your particular job.
Yes — tell us the shift pattern and we will shortlist accordingly. That means enough bedrooms and bathrooms for people sleeping at different hours, blackout-friendly rooms where possible, and neighbours who are not on top of the house. Night-shift crews are routine for us, and the weekly clean is scheduled around the rota, not the other way round.
Parking is checked against your actual vehicles before we put a house on the shortlist — number, size, and any trailer. Village properties often have driveways or generous roadside space, but we confirm it in writing before check-in so the crew is never blocked in or ticketed on day one.
Yes. Rent, council tax, gas, electric, water, broadband, cleaning and linen all arrive as one monthly invoice to your company paid by card. Nothing is metered back to the crew and there are no booking fees. Your accounts team can have one purchase order covering the whole stay.
Three things: the site postcode, the number of people and any shift pattern, and the expected start date and duration. With that we can return a priced shortlist within two working hours. If the job length is uncertain, say so — stays are built to be extended on the same terms.
