New Lanark, Scotland • Scotland
Tucked into the Clyde valley below the Falls of Clyde, New Lanark is a former cotton-mill village in South Lanarkshire, Scotland — the ML postcode area, a mile south of Lanark and just off the A73. Its restored mill buildings are a UNESCO World Heritage Site, but the working world around it is practical and busy. KrewBase houses crews hereabouts in whole serviced homes with bills, Wi-Fi and parking in our name, and one monthly invoice.
New Lanark village itself is largely heritage housing managed by the mill trust, so crews are usually lodged a stone's throw away in Lanark proper or the villages along the Clyde. Lanark offers stone terraces near the High Street, inter-war semis around the town, and newer estates on the edges towards Carluke and the A73.
For working crews we favour the semis and edge-of-town houses: driveways for two or three vehicles, space to store materials, and quick exits onto the main roads. Every shortlist is filtered for parking measured against your vehicles, broadband speed-tested, and no tired rentals dressed up as crew houses.
This part of South Lanarkshire sees steady crews on housing development, local infrastructure and public-sector maintenance around Lanark, Carluke and Wishaw. The M74 corridor a few miles west adds logistics and distribution work, and Glasgow's orbit brings construction and healthcare contracts within commuting reach.
Crews working across Lanarkshire and the central belt often base here because it's cheaper and quieter than the city, with the A73, M74 and rail links all close. If the contract moves, we re-shortlist around the new site rather than making the crew commute further.
The A73 runs through Lanark towards the M74 in about fifteen minutes, giving fast runs north to Glasgow or south towards Carlisle. The A71 links west towards Kilmarnock, and the A70 crosses the moors towards Edinburgh if your work heads that way.
Lanark has its own station with trains towards Glasgow, and Carstairs junction is close by for the west coast main line. For anything further afield we shortlist by actual drive time from the site gate, agreed with you before anyone commits.
The whole house is yours: front door, kitchen, living room, no strangers in the corridor. Rent, council tax, gas, electric, water and Wi-Fi all sit in our name, with a weekly clean and fresh linen included as standard.
For five or more crew we only shortlist two-bathroom properties, and maintenance goes to our team — the crew phone us, not the landlord. Your company gets one monthly invoice covering everything, paid by card, with no booking fees and 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.
The village is mostly heritage trust housing, so crews are usually placed a minute or two away in Lanark or the nearby villages. Tell us your site location and we'll shortlist by drive time — you'll get the same whole-house, bills-in setup wherever the shortlist lands.
Usually within a couple of hours of your enquiry. Send the headcount, vehicle list and site postcode and we'll return serviced houses around Lanark, Carluke and the Clyde valley that genuinely fit the job.
Yes — it's a hard filter. We measure each property's parking against the vans and pickups you list before it reaches the shortlist, so there's no turning up to a terrace with a single residents' bay.
They are. Rent, council tax, gas, electric, water and broadband all sit with KrewBase, and your company gets one monthly invoice, paid by card. We speed-test the Wi-Fi before check-in.
That's the standard arrangement: one monthly invoice covering the full stay, payable paid by card, no booking fees. Your accounts team deals with one supplier instead of a pile of utility bills.
We do. The crew report any issue to our maintenance team and we deal with the landlord and trades directly. It never reaches your site manager, and the cost is already inside the one monthly invoice.

If New Lanark is short on the right house for your crew, Glasgow is the obvious back-up, roughly 23 miles away. See our contractor accommodation Glasgow page for what we hold there. Small crews are as welcome as big ones.
