Tansor, East Midlands • England
Tansor is a tiny village in Northamptonshire, in the East Midlands, PE postcode area, a few miles from Oundle and around ten miles south-west of Peterborough. KrewBase houses work crews in whole serviced properties across this corner of the county — proper houses with driveways, not rooms above a pub. Bills, Wi-Fi and parking are included from day one, and your company receives one monthly invoice for the lot. Crews on jobs around Oundle and Peterborough stay close to site without paying city rates.
Tansor itself is a hamlet of stone cottages and farmhouses by the River Nene — beautiful, but not built for a crew. The workable stock sits in Oundle a few minutes away, Thrapston up the road, or the villages in between, where there are modern semis and three-bed houses with driveways and proper kitchens. That's what we shortlist: houses with real parking for the vans, space to dry gear, two baths when five or more stay, and a commute measured from the site gate.
Crews based around Tansor are generally working across Northamptonshire and toward Peterborough and Cambridgeshire. We house teams on construction and housing development, infrastructure and road work, energy and grid contracts, logistics and manufacturing — the steady stream of jobs that run through this part of the East Midlands. Give us the site postcode, headcount and dates, and we'll match a house to the shift pattern.
The A605 runs through nearby Oundle and connects toward Peterborough in around twenty minutes and up to the A14 for the wider region. The A1 is a short drive east for crews heading north or south, and Peterborough station covers rail. Most crews drive, so we shortlist on actual drive time, not map distance — on rural roads the two rarely agree, and the morning run is what counts.
Your crew gets the whole house — no shared corridors, no hotel timetable. Bills go in our name: gas, electric, water, council tax and broadband, with the Wi-Fi properly speed-tested before check-in. Parking is matched to the vehicles actually arriving, five or more in the house means two baths, and a weekly clean with fresh linen is standard throughout the stay.
Maintenance calls come to us, and your company gets one monthly invoice, paid by card, no booking fees and no minimum stay. Postcode, headcount, dates — that's all we need, and a shortlist lands within two working hours of your enquiry. From there it's pick, sign, move in — usually within days rather than weeks, and the whole booking stays on one monthly invoice throughout.
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.
In the serviced houses a few minutes away in Oundle, Thrapston or the surrounding villages. We shortlist by drive time from the site gate, so the crew lands in the nearest house that fits — not in whichever hotel had spare rooms twenty miles off.
Within two working hours of getting the site postcode, crew size and dates. You'll get a shortlist of whole serviced houses, pick one, and we handle the company paperwork so the crew can usually move in within days, sometimes sooner.
For anything longer than a night or two, yes. A whole house gives the crew a kitchen, parking, space to dry gear and room to decompress — and it typically works out cheaper per person than B&B rooms once evening meals and laundry are counted in.
All of them — gas, electric, water, council tax and broadband sit in our name, and the Wi-Fi is speed-tested before check-in. The crew never deals with a utility account, and your company gets one monthly invoice covering everything paid by card.
No. A small crew for a short job is as welcome as a large one for months. Tell us what the work actually looks like and we'll match the house and price to it — no per-person supplements and no booking fees.
We do. Boiler, tap, oven — the crew calls us and we send the tradesperson. The booking isn't a private let where your supervisor becomes the landlord; keeping the house working is included in the rate from day one of the stay.
