Romsey, South East • England
Romsey is a market town on the River Test in Hampshire, in the SO postcode area of South East England, about eight miles north-west of Southampton and a short run from the M27. KrewBase lets whole serviced houses and flats here for contractor crews, with bills, Wi-Fi and parking all in and one monthly invoice to your office — a quieter, better-value base than the city when the job is across the Southampton area.
Romsey is brick-and-flint town centre streets, riverside cottages, and plenty of interwar semis and modern estates around the edges, with villages like North Baddesley, Ampfield and Sherfield English close by. For crews we favour the semis and newer houses: driveways for two or three vans, gardens for kit, and a straight run towards Southampton or the M27. Every property is walked through in person before it reaches your shortlist.
Romsey draws crews working across the Southampton area — construction and housing development, logistics and manufacturing around the city's estates, NHS and healthcare contracts, and utilities and infrastructure jobs across Hampshire. Some crews prefer basing here over the city itself for the quieter nights and easier parking. Whatever the sector, send us the site, headcount and dates and we will get the house sorted.
The A3057 and A27 link Romsey towards Southampton in about twenty minutes, and the M27 is a short drive away at junction 3 for jobs along the coast or towards Portsmouth. The A36 runs north-west towards Salisbury and the West. Romsey station keeps a rail link with Southampton, and Salisbury and Winchester are both within easy reach for sites further afield. Wherever the job lands, we shortlist houses by measured drive time.
Your crew gets the whole property — no sharing, no other guests — with gas, electric, water, council tax and broadband in our name. Wi-Fi is tested before check-in, parking is confirmed against your actual vehicles, and five-plus crews get two bathrooms. A weekly clean with fresh linen is included, maintenance calls come to us, and your office pays one monthly invoice, paid by card. No booking fees, and no minimum crew or stay — two people for a fortnight is as welcome as twenty for six months.
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.
Typically within about two hours of your enquiry. Send the site postcode, headcount and start date and we will come back with whole houses around Romsey and the nearby villages that are genuinely available, each checked for van parking, working Wi-Fi and enough bathrooms. If the job starts soon, flag it and we will move quickly.
Yes — North Baddesley, Ampfield, Sherfield English, Michelmersh and the other Test Valley villages are all in scope, plus Southampton, Winchester and Salisbury when the site sits further out. Give us the site location and we will shortlist by real drive time, not a rigid ring around Romsey.
Yes. The semis and modern houses around the edge of Romsey typically have driveways for two or three vans, and we confirm parking against your actual vehicles before check-in. Older centre-of-town properties with tight or permit-only parking rarely make the cut for trades crews — if it cannot take your vans, we do not offer it.
We do. Gas, electric, water, council tax and broadband stay in KrewBase's name and are covered by the rent, so your crew pays one figure and your office receives one monthly invoice. Wi-Fi is speed-tested before check-in, and any supplier problem is ours to chase — your lads come home to a working house, not admin.
That is the normal arrangement. We open a company account, your crew checks in, and we send one monthly invoice covering rent, bills, the weekly clean and linen, payable paid by card. No booking fees and no per-person charges, so your accounts team reconciles one line item at month end instead of a pile of receipts.
Extensions are usually straightforward — let us know early and we will try to hold the same house, or move the crew to another suitable property nearby if the diary will not stretch. Because everything runs on a monthly invoice rather than nightly rates, a few extra weeks on site generally just carries straight on at the same terms.
