The Stukeleys, East of England • England
The Stukeleys — Great and Little — straddle the old Great North Road in the East of England, a couple of miles north of Huntingdon in Cambridgeshire, right beside the A1(M) in the PE postcode area. Crews working along the A1 corridor towards Peterborough or the A14 towards Cambridge base themselves here. KrewBase houses whole crews in serviced properties around The Stukeleys with bills, Wi-Fi and parking in, everything charged on one monthly invoice.
The Stukeleys themselves are proper villages — period farmhouses and older cottages along the old Great North Road, with pockets of newer detached homes tucked down the lanes towards Huntingdon and Alconbury. For crews, the modern stock is the useful material: driveways, garages and room for several vans without blocking the lane. We shortlist those newer houses plus the family estates on the Huntingdon side, and every property is checked for genuine parking, decent heating and enough bathrooms for the crew size.
The big draw is the road network. Construction, logistics and maintenance crews pass through this corner of Cambridgeshire constantly — housing development and business-park work around Huntingdon, distribution running the A1 and A14, and trades covering the market towns between Peterborough, Cambridge and Bedford. Crews working across the Huntingdon area or anywhere along the A1 corridor north of London find The Stukeleys a quiet place to come back to after a shift.
The villages sit just off the A1(M) near Huntingdon, so Peterborough is around fifteen minutes north and the A14 interchange is close by for Cambridge, Kettering and the Midlands. Huntingdon town centre is three miles or so for supplies and the railway station, which has fast services south to London and north to Peterborough. For crews working at sites scattered along the A1, being this close to the junction beats staying in a town centre — and we shortlist by measured drive time from wherever the site actually is.
You take the whole property — your crew, your kitchen, no strangers in the corridor. Bills for gas, electricity, water, council tax and broadband sit in our name, the Wi-Fi is tested before anyone arrives, and parking is verified against the real vehicles. Crews of five or more get two bathrooms as standard, a weekly clean and fresh linen come as part of the rate, and maintenance calls come to us rather than to your supervisor's phone.
Pricing is one monthly invoice covering everything — rent, bills, cleaning and linen — paid by card, with no booking fees and no minimum crew or stay. If the job overruns, extending is normally a quick conversation rather than a new contract, and the same terms simply carry on. Send us the site postcode, crew size and start date and a shortlist lands in your inbox within two hours.
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 hours of receiving the site postcode, crew size and start date. Each property on the list has been checked for parking, Wi-Fi and drive time to your site, so the shortlist is usable straight away rather than a pile of maybes.
The villages are small, so we always look wider — Huntingdon, Alconbury, Brampton and the estates north of the town are all in play, usually within a few minutes' drive. Your crew gets the same whole-house setup wherever we place them, and we tell you if the search has moved beyond the villages.
Yes — parking is verified against your actual vehicles before we offer anything. The newer houses around here typically have driveways and garages that take vans comfortably. If you're running multiple long vehicles, say so up front and we'll filter for properties that genuinely cope.
Yes. Gas, electricity, water, council tax and broadband are all in our name and in the rate. We test the Wi-Fi before check-in, and nobody will ask your crew for money towards bills — the whole point of the arrangement is one predictable cost.
One monthly invoice covers everything — rent, bills, cleaning and linen — paid by card. No booking fees, nothing for crew to claim back, and a single line for your accounts team instead of a folder of receipts from a hotel. The same terms run for the whole booking.
We do. Your crew reports any problem to us and we arrange the fix, day or night. Nobody on site should be ringing plumbers between shifts — they report it once, we deal with it, and it's never added to your invoice as an extra.

If The Stukeleys is short on the right house for your crew, Cambridge is the obvious back-up, roughly 18 miles away. See our contractor accommodation Cambridge page for what we hold there. Small crews are as welcome as big ones.
