St Cuthbert Out, South West • England
St Cuthbert Out is a rural parish on the Mendip fringe just outside Wells in Somerset, in the South West of England and the BA postcode area, with the A39 and A371 close by and Glastonbury and Shepton Mallet a short drive away. Crews on jobs across Somerset and the Mendips often base around here. KrewBase houses them in whole serviced properties in the St Cuthbert Out area — bills in our name, Wi-Fi live, parking checked for vans, one monthly invoice.
St Cuthbert Out takes in the lanes and hamlets south of Wells, so the housing stock is rural Somerset: stone cottages, farmhouses and converted barns dotted along the B-roads, with the more practical family semis and newer builds on the fringes towards Wells and Wookey. For crews, the newer stock wins almost every time — driveways, garages, decent insulation and neighbours who don't mind a van leaving at five in the morning.
We check every property against your actual booking: parking measured against your vehicles, enough bathrooms for the headcount, and a broadband line that passes a speed test. A listed cottage with charm and no parking simply doesn't make the list — rural Somerset looks idyllic in photos, and rather a lot of it is hopeless for a working crew in winter.
Somerset's Mendip edge sees a steady flow of the usual trades: construction and housing development around the cathedral city's outskirts, agricultural and food-sector work across the Levels, utility and grid maintenance, and crews on contracts covering the wider South West region who need a base between Bristol, Bath and the Devon border. Healthcare and logistics work passes through too, keeping demand steady through the year.
Because the parish itself is quiet and rural, crews here are usually attached to jobs in Wells, Shepton Mallet or along the A37 and A39 corridors — and a serviced whole house beats a string of hotel rooms for anything longer than a week, with cooking facilities, laundry and parking the hotel simply can't offer at anything like the same price per person.
The A39 skirts the area, linking Wells towards Glastonbury and Street, while the A371 heads west to Cheddar; Shepton Mallet is about ten minutes and the M5 at junction 23 roughly half an hour. Wells itself is minutes away for supplies, and the A37 runs north towards Bristol for crews whose work stretches up the corridor towards the bigger city jobs.
We shortlist by drive time from your actual site — rural Somerset lanes can be slower than they look on a map, so we measure rather than guess. If the job moves from Wells to Shepton or down towards Glastonbury, we re-base the crew with it and the monthly invoice simply carries on without a break, a renegotiation or a single new piece of paperwork.
The crew gets the whole house — not rooms, not a wing of someone's home. KrewBase holds council tax, energy, water and broadband in its own name, so there's nothing to set up and nothing to close down at the end of the job. Wi-Fi is tested before check-in and parking is verified against the vehicles actually turning up, not the ones the listing imagined.
Weekly cleaning and fresh linen come as standard, homes sleeping five or more get two bathrooms, and maintenance is our call day or night — the crew phones us and we sort it around their shifts. The company receives one monthly invoice, paid by card: no booking fees, no minimum crew size and no minimum stay, whatever the shape of the job.
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.
It's a rural parish, so the strongest options are usually on the fringes towards Wells and Wookey or in the surrounding villages — often minutes from the site. Send us your headcount and site location and we'll shortlist within two working hours, being upfront about what's in the parish and what's practically next door to it.
Yes, because we check it before offering anything. Rural lanes mean no reliable on-street parking, so we only shortlist properties with off-road space sized against your vehicle list — the number of vehicles and their length and width. If your vans don't fit, the house is off the list before you ever hear about it.
Yes — Wells, Shepton Mallet, Glastonbury, Street, Cheddar and the Mendip villages are all in our usual area. If your contract shifts along the A37 or A39 corridor, tell us and we'll move the accommodation with it, re-checking drive times so the commute never quietly grows around the crew while nobody's watching.
We do, in KrewBase's name. Council tax, energy, water and broadband are all covered in the one monthly invoice your company receives paid by card. The crew never sets up an account, never tops up a meter, and never gets chased for a final bill when the job ends — we handle the whole lifecycle from start to finish.
It varies by lane, which is exactly why we speed-test every line before check-in and only offer properties where the measured speed supports streaming, calls and online training. If a lovely house has a hopeless connection, it doesn't reach your shortlist — whatever it looks like from the outside and however cheap the rent might be.
Usually, yes. Let us know as early as you can and we'll confirm the same house can continue or find an alternative close by, on the same terms. Extensions are routine — Somerset weather and ground conditions see to that — and the invoice simply carries on without a renegotiation or any change to the pricing.
