March, East of England • England
March is a market town in the heart of the Cambridgeshire Fens, in the PE postcode area, where the A141 crosses the old railway town grid. Crews working across Fenland — the infrastructure jobs, the agri-food sites, the development schemes in the surrounding towns — can base themselves here in a real house rather than a hotel an hour away. KrewBase lets whole serviced properties with bills in our name and one monthly invoice to your company.
March is a proper brick fenland town: terraces and semis radiating from the high street and the old station district, larger Victorian houses on the main roads, and post-war estates towards the edges where parking is easy and gardens are generous. The surrounding villages — Wimblington, Doddington, Guyhirn and the hamlets along the A141 — add more detached options with room for vans and kit. We shortlist only what passes our checks: enough bathrooms for the crew, broadband that works, and parking confirmed against your actual vehicles.
Fenland keeps a steady stream of crews busy. There is agri-food and processing work spread across the district, construction and housing development in the market towns, highways and drainage infrastructure that this below-sea-level landscape constantly needs, and healthcare contracts across the towns' hospitals and care sites. Crews also use March as a base for work towards Peterborough, Wisbech, Ely and Cambridge, with the A141 and A47 fanning out in every direction. It is a practical, affordable base for jobs that cover a wide patch.
The A141 runs west towards Huntingdon and the A1(M), and the A47 crosses at Guyhirn taking you west to Wisbech or east towards King's Lynn. March station sits on the Ely to Peterborough line, with connections to Cambridge and the north, and Ely is a short run south-west. Fenland distances look small on the map but the roads are straight and quick, so a thirty-mile commute here is often easier than a ten-mile one in a city. We still measure from your exact site postcode and shortlist accordingly — fenland villages reward the shortest honest drive.
Every property is let whole — your crew, your house. Bills go in our name: council tax, gas, electric, water and Wi-Fi, tested before check-in. Crews of five or more get two bathrooms at a minimum. A weekly clean and fresh linen are part of the rent, and maintenance calls come to us day or night, not to whoever is back earliest. Your company receives one monthly invoice, paid by card, with no booking fees and no minimum crew size or stay length. A small crew on a short job gets the same service as a big one on a long contract.
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, headcount and start date. We shortlist only houses we have checked — drive time to site, parking for your vehicles, bathroom count and Wi-Fi speed — so what you receive is ready to say yes to. Fenland stock is practical and well-priced, which helps when the job runs long.
March itself plus Wimblington, Doddington, Guyhirn, Coldham and the villages along the A141 and A47, and over towards Wisbech or Ely when the job sits that way. Because the fen roads are fast, the workable radius is generous — tell us the site postcode and we will measure the real drive and shortlist from the closest cluster.
Yes, and it is rarely a struggle — fenland plots are generous, with driveways and roadside space that city properties cannot offer. We still confirm the parking against your actual vehicles, including any trailer or small plant, before check-in. You will know exactly where the vans go before the crew arrives.
All of them: council tax, gas, electric, water and broadband are in our name and covered in the rent. We test the Wi-Fi speed at the property before check-in, because fenland villages can vary. Everything rolls into one monthly invoice to your company paid by card — the crew never sees a utility bill.
Yes, as standard. Your company gets one monthly invoice covering rent, bills, cleaning and linen, paid by card, with no booking fees. We work against purchase orders and deal with your accounts team directly, and if the job runs over we simply extend on the same terms and the same invoice.
No minimums on either. You pay for the house that fits rather than a per-head rate, so a small crew on a short job costs sensibly here. If the job grows or shrinks, tell us and we will right-size the property or extend the stay on the same terms, and village stock around March is usually flexible enough to make that painless.

March sits about 24 miles from Cambridge. 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 Cambridge page covers houses across the wider area — two people or twenty, same service.
