Strathpeffer, Scotland • Scotland
Strathpeffer is a Victorian spa village in Highland Scotland, in the IV postcode area, a few miles west of Dingwall on the A834. It sits within easy reach of the Cromarty Firth towns and about twenty miles from Inverness, so crews working across the north have a quieter base than the city. KrewBase supplies whole serviced houses and flats around Strathpeffer with bills, Wi-Fi and parking included and one monthly invoice for your company — proper accommodation for crews from two people up.
The village is known for its big Victorian villas, but the practical stock for crews is the mix beyond them: stone terraces and cottages in the older streets, semi-detached homes from the last century, and bungalows around the outskirts. Larger houses suit bigger crews well — plenty of bedrooms, and driveways that swallow a van or two. We shortlist by what works: parking checked against your vehicles, heating that copes with a Highland winter, and a kitchen big enough for a crew to actually cook in rather than just reheat.
The north of Scotland keeps trades crews busy across construction, housing development, healthcare and logistics, with energy and grid-related work a steady presence around the firths and glens. From Strathpeffer you can reach Dingwall, Invergordon and Alness quickly, and Inverness for the bigger contracts. The pattern we see most is a crew based here covering a string of sites across Ross-shire — which is why one settled house with everything included beats a week of different B&Bs.
The A834 drops down to the A835 near Contin, and from there it's a fast run to Dingwall and the A9 — Inverness is roughly twenty to twenty-five minutes beyond. South goes to Inverness too; north takes you up the east coast towards Tain and the far north. Dingwall has a station on the Inverness to Wick line when the van's not practical. As always, tell us the site postcode and we'll shortlist by real drive time, checking that nobody's signing up for a run over Struie or the Black Isle in the wrong direction.
Every property comes as a whole let: no per-room pricing, no strangers in the spare bed. Rent, council tax, utilities and broadband sit in our name, and your company gets one monthly invoice, paid by card. Wi-Fi is speed-tested before check-in, parking is matched to the vehicles on the job, and crews of five or more get two bathrooms as standard. A weekly clean and fresh linen are part of the service, maintenance comes to us, and there are 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.
Within two working hours of a clear enquiry — site location, crew size, dates. We hold the shortlist while you decide and handle the paperwork with your company directly, so most crews are checked in within a few days of saying yes.
The village itself, Dingwall, Contin, Conon Bridge and the Black Isle side, with Inverness in range for bigger contracts. If your site sits further out, tell us where and we'll shortlist by actual drive time, not guesswork.
Yes — we verify off-road parking for every vehicle on the job before proposing a property. Some of the village's older villas have limited drive space, so where vans are involved we'll steer the shortlist towards houses that can take them properly.
Always. Rent, council tax, gas, electricity and broadband are all in our name, arriving as one invoice to your company paid by card. No booking fees, no service charges, and nothing for your accounts team to chase around at month end.
Tell us the shift pattern at enquiry stage. We'll favour properties with bedrooms away from the street, enough bathrooms for staggered showers, and a separate kitchen so the early crew isn't waking the late one. The house is planned around how you actually work.
We do. Anything from a boiler fault to a broken blind is reported to us and fixed by our maintenance team — it never lands on your site manager. Keeping the house working is part of the monthly invoice, not an extra call-out charge.

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