Weymouth, South West • England
Weymouth sits on the Dorset coast in England's South West, in the DT postcode area, with Dorchester a short run up the A354 and the Isle of Portland joined by the causeway road. When your crew is working across the Weymouth area, KrewBase houses them in whole serviced properties — houses and flats rented as one unit, with bills, Wi-Fi and parking already sorted. Your company gets one monthly invoice, and your crew gets a proper home rather than a string of hotel rooms.
Weymouth's housing stock is classic seaside Dorset: Victorian and Edwardian terraces in the older streets behind the Esplanade, post-war semis and council estates inland towards Radipole and Wyke Regis, and newer developments on the edges of town. For crews, the semis and terraces around the A354 corridor tend to work best — off-street parking, a spare room or two, and enough kerb space outside for a van without upsetting the neighbours.
We filter every property for the things crews actually need rather than the things look good in a brochure: at least one guaranteed parking space per vehicle, decent mobile signal on every network the crew uses, and enough bathrooms for the headcount. Two bathrooms for five or more people is our baseline, not a bonus, and the kitchen has to be capable of feeding everyone who lives there, not just a couple on a weekend.
Crews base themselves in Weymouth for work across Dorset and the wider South West. Construction and housing development are steady drivers, along with harbour and coastal infrastructure work, rail maintenance, and energy and grid jobs in the area. Healthcare crews covering the local NHS services, logistics runs into the town and crews on longer maintenance contracts all need accommodation that works for weeks or months rather than a few nights.
Whatever the job, the pattern is the same: the work is spread across the area, so a single crew house in town beats scattering people across hotels and B&Bs at random. Everyone stays under one roof, meals get cooked properly, kit stays together, and the site run is the same each morning instead of a convoy leaving from three different postcodes.
The A354 links Weymouth to Dorchester and the wider road network, with the A35 heading east along the coast towards Poole and west towards Bridport. The causeway over to Portland is a few minutes from most parts of town, which matters when the job is on the island rather than the mainland. For crews heading further afield, Dorchester is roughly eight miles up the road, and from there the A303 and M5 corridors open up jobs across the South West.
If your site sits off the main roads, we shortlist properties by actual drive time from the site address rather than distance as the crow flies. A house five minutes from the gate beats one that looks closer on a map every time, and we'd rather your crew had the extra half hour in bed than spent it winding through back lanes behind a tractor.
You get the whole property, not a floor of a hotel. Bills — council tax, gas, electric, water and broadband — go in our name, not yours, so nobody's chasing meter readings at the end of a shift. Wi-Fi is speed-tested before check-in, parking is checked against your actual vehicles, and a crew of five or more gets two bathrooms as standard. The weekly clean and fresh linen are part of the deal, and any maintenance is our phone call to make, not yours.
Your company gets one monthly invoice and card payment payment terms. There are no booking fees, no deposits per person, and no minimum crew size or stay — two people for a fortnight is as welcome as twenty for six months. Send us the site postcode and headcount and we'll have a shortlist back within two working hours, usually with a move-in date within the week.
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.
Send us the site postcode, headcount and start date and we'll come back with a shortlist of suitable crew houses or flats in Weymouth within two working hours. Most crews are checked in within a few days of the first call, and we can usually match urgent starts when the property stock allows.
Yes. We shortlist across the DT postcode area, so crews working on Portland over the causeway or up the A354 towards Dorchester are covered from the same search. Just give us the site address and we'll rank every property by drive time from the gate, not by how close it looks on a map.
Parking is checked against your actual vehicles before we send a property — vans, pickups and cars, with trailers mentioned if there are any. Most houses we place crews in around Weymouth have driveways or guaranteed off-street spaces, and we won't shortlist anything that leaves a crew van circling the block for a bay at the end of a shift.
Yes. Council tax, gas, electric, water and broadband all go in our name, and the Wi-Fi is speed-tested before anyone checks in, so there's no first-night router hunt. Your crew walks into a warm, connected house with nothing to set up, and your company never sees a utility bill or a meter reading.
That's exactly how it works. One monthly invoice covers the rent, bills and the weekly clean, paid by card. There are no booking fees, no per-person deposits and no expense receipts to chase. Your accounts team deals with one document instead of a folder full of hotel bills and fuel claims.
Extensions are normal in this line of work. Tell us the new end date and, provided the property is available, the booking simply rolls on under the same terms and the same single monthly invoice. If the crew size changes meanwhile, we adjust the setup — extra linen, another bathroom clean — without any drama or renegotiation.

If Weymouth is short on the right house for your crew, Exeter is the obvious back-up, roughly 47 miles away. See our contractor accommodation Exeter page for what we hold there. Small crews are as welcome as big ones.
