Newark-on-Trent, East Midlands • England
Few towns in England's East Midlands are better connected than Newark-on-Trent. Sitting on the River Trent in the NG postcode area, it has the A1 and A46 crossing at its edge and a station on the East Coast Main Line. Crews working anywhere between Nottingham, Lincoln and Doncaster often base up here. KrewBase takes whole serviced houses and flats in and around Newark, keeps every bill in our name, and sends your company one monthly invoice.
Newark's housing runs from Georgian streets near the castle and market place to Victorian terraces around the town, post-war semis in the estates, and newer builds on the fringes. For crews we lean towards the semis on the town's edges — drives for vans, a bit of garden, space to dry work kit. We rule out anything where parking is a fight, and every option on your shortlist comes with the parking and bathroom detail up front.
Newark's position at the junction of the A1 and A46 makes it a natural base for logistics and distribution crews, and there's a long tradition of food manufacturing and engineering in the area. Around it you'll find construction and housing development on every side of town, rail work on the East Coast Main Line, and crews supporting energy and grid projects across the county. The mix changes; the need for decent crew housing doesn't.
The A1 passes the town's east side heading north to Doncaster and south towards the A46 junction for Leicester, while the A46 east runs to Lincoln in around forty minutes. Nottingham is about twenty miles south-west. Newark Northgate station puts crews on East Coast Main Line trains, and Newark Castle station links towards Nottingham. For outlying sites we shortlist by drive time from the postcode.
You book the whole house, and KrewBase holds the tenancy plus every bill — council tax, utilities, broadband — in our own name. Wi-Fi is speed-tested before check-in, parking is confirmed against your vehicles, and houses for five or more come with two bathrooms. A weekly clean and fresh linen are included, and maintenance calls come to us. Your crew never deals with a landlord, an agent or a utility supplier.
One monthly invoice goes to your company paid by card, with no booking fees and no minimum stay. If the job runs long, extending is normally a quick call with your KrewBase contact. And if a second crew follows the first, we can usually keep the same house or place them next door — either way, the invoicing stays on one line.
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.
Inside two working hours of getting the site postcode, crew size and dates. Newark's stock is good, so we can usually offer a couple of genuine options the same day — each with drive time, parking, bathroom count and weekly rate laid out.
All of the town — the centre, the Victorian streets, the estates and the newer fringes — plus Balderton, Collingham, Southwell, North Muskham and the villages along the A1 and A46. We shortlist by drive time from wherever your site actually is.
Yes, especially in the post-war estates and on the town's edges where we focus our shortlists — drives that take a transit are common there. We still check every property against the vehicles you tell us about, because some older streets are permit-only or tight.
That's standard. One monthly invoice covers rent, bills, Wi-Fi and the weekly clean, paid by card, with a named contact for queries. Your accounts team deal with us — not the landlord, the broadband provider and a cleaner separately. It keeps your job costing tidy and your crew out of expenses admin.
Usually, yes — we hold the tenancy, so an extension is a conversation, not a new search. If a house can't run longer, we'll arrange an equivalent alternative and manage the move so your crew's work doesn't stop for it.
Site postcode, headcount, and start and likely end dates. Rough dates are fine if the programme is still moving. With those we shortlist whole houses, confirm parking and Wi-Fi, and give you one all-in weekly rate per property. Food and fuel are your crew's business; housing is ours.
