Shellingford, South East • England
Shellingford is a small Oxfordshire village a couple of miles south of Faringdon, in the South East of England, in the SN postcode area. Crews working the A420 corridor between Swindon and Oxford often base here for the quiet nights and the quick road access both ways. KrewBase supplies whole serviced houses and flats — bills in our name, Wi-Fi sorted, parking checked against your vehicles — and sends your company one monthly invoice whatever the size of the crew.
Housing around Shellingford is classic west-Oxfordshire stock: stone-built cottages, brick semis and terraces in Faringdon, plus newer estates on the town's edges with proper drives. Cottages look lovely, but tight doorways and single parking rarely suit a working crew, so we lean towards semis and estate houses where tools can live in the hall and three vehicles fit without a fight. Every shortlist is filtered for genuine working-crew practicality, not curb appeal.
Work across the district centres on housing development and repairs, rail and road maintenance, energy and grid jobs, plus healthcare and logistics cover for the towns along the A420 and A417. Crews working across Oxfordshire often find village-and-market-town bases calmer than city ones. We keep it generic deliberately — your site, your drive times — and shortlist property that fits the actual job, wherever in the county it turns out to be.
The A420 is the spine here, running north-east towards Oxford in around half an hour and west to Swindon in about twenty minutes, with the A417 dropping south towards Wantage. There's no station in the village itself — Swindon and Oxford are the nearest railheads. If your site moves mid-job, tell us: we re-run drive times and reshuffle the shortlist rather than leaving your crew with a cross-country slog every morning.
The whole house or flat is yours — no room-by-room lets. Bills sit in our name, Wi-Fi is tested before check-in, and parking is checked against the vehicles actually arriving. Properties sleeping five or more get two bathrooms, and a weekly clean with fresh linen keeps the place decent. Maintenance calls come to us, not your gaffer. One monthly invoice, paid by card, no booking fees, and no minimum crew or stay length.
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 during the day, in most cases. Send the site postcode, crew size, vehicle list and start date, and we'll come back with whole properties around Shellingford and Faringdon that genuinely fit — bills in, parking confirmed, nothing that needs chasing.
The whole west-Oxfordshire corner: Faringdon, Shellingford, Uffington, Stanford in the Vale, Longcot and the villages towards Wantage and Lechlade. If your site shifts along the A420 or A417, we re-shortlist for the new location rather than leaving your crew with a longer commute than they signed up for.
It's checked, which is better than 'included'. Village and estate properties here usually have drives or space for two to three vehicles, but we verify every listing against your actual vehicle list before sending it. If the crew runs a Transit and two cars, we confirm it all fits on day one, not after an argument with the neighbour.
Yes. Council tax, gas, electric, water and broadband are in our name and built into the rate. Wi-Fi is tested before check-in so your crew arrives to a working connection and heating that's on. There are no meters to photograph, no final bills to argue about, and nothing for your people to set up after a long shift.
One invoice per month covering rent and all bills, issued with VAT details and payable paid by card. No booking fees, no service charges bolted on later, and one accounts contact for the whole stay. If your project team needs cost codes splitting across invoices, tell us at the start and we'll structure it that way.
No. A two-person team for a fortnight is priced and serviced the same way as a larger crew for months. The properties are whole lets, so an empty bedroom costs nothing extra — and if the job grows and you need more beds, we'll look at swapping up rather than squeezing people in.

If Shellingford is short on the right house for your crew, Oxford is the obvious back-up, roughly 14 miles away. See our contractor accommodation Oxford page for what we hold there. Small crews are as welcome as big ones.
