Why our properties work for contractors

Built around how contractors actually live and work

All bills included

No surprises Electricity, heating, water, council tax, and broadband all covered in one weekly price. No utility accounts to set up, no bills arriving after checkout. What you see is what you pay.

Workspace that actually works

Every property comes with a proper desk setup and superfast broadband — not a hotel-room hotspot that drops when three people connect. Client VPN, project tools, early morning calls — the connection holds.

Weekly and monthly rates

Built for contract timelines Weekly minimums, easy extensions, and no penalty if your project wraps up ahead of schedule. We don't operate on holiday-let logic. If your contract runs on, we'll accommodate it.

Invoices for every stay

Every booking comes with a clear invoice for your stay. Self-employed, limited company, umbrella — whatever your set-up, our invoicing works for expenses and client billing without chasing paperwork.

Saves daily rate

A fully equipped kitchen is a significant saving in one of Europe's most expensive cities for food. Cook in, bring lunch to site, avoid the £15 meal deal. Over a month-long contract the difference adds up.

you can decompress

A proper sofa, a real kitchen, your own front door. After a long day on site or back-to-back client calls, there's a material difference between a serviced apartment and a hotel room. You need somewhere that feels functional and settled.
