Andover Contractor Accommodation
If you are working in or around Andover and need comfortable, flexible accommodation for a temporary period, Eastgate House offers practical, high-quality contractor accommodation in the centre of the town.
Our serviced apartments are designed for professionals who want more space, privacy, and independence than a hotel, without the commitment of a long-term rental. Whether you are on a short project, a rolling contract, or a longer assignment, our self-contained flats provide a straightforward and cost-effective solution.
Eastgate House is a small, well-maintained block of apartments on East Street, within walking distance of Andover town centre, transport links, and local amenities. Four of the six flats in the building have been operated as serviced accommodation since back in November 2018 and are regularly used by contractors, consultants, and business travellers working locally.
Purpose-Built Contractor Accommodation in Andover
Contractors often need accommodation that fits around unpredictable schedules, early starts, and longer working weeks. Hotels can be restrictive and expensive over time, while traditional rentals usually require long commitments and upfront costs.
Our Andover contractor accommodation is specifically suited to professionals who need:
- Flexible lengths of stay
- A fully self-contained space
- Somewhere quiet and comfortable after work
- Parking and easy access to the town and surrounding areas
Each apartment at Eastgate House is fully self-catering and set up to function as a practical home-from-home rather than a short-stay hotel room.
About Eastgate House, Andover
Eastgate House is a centrally located residential building made up of six self-contained flats. Four of these are operated as serviced apartments, offering short-term and medium-term accommodation for contractors and other working guests.
The apartments include a mix of layouts suitable for individuals or couples working locally. Each flat is private, secure, and fully furnished, allowing guests to settle in quickly without bringing household items with them.
Being a smaller building rather than a large complex also means a quieter environment, which many contractors value after long working days.
Apartment Types Available
Our Andover contractor accommodation at Eastgate House includes:
- Two one-bedroom flats
- Two additional one-bedroom flats
Each apartment is fully self-contained and suitable for single occupancy or shared use by two professionals, depending on requirements.
All flats include separate sleeping, living, and kitchen areas, rather than a single open hotel-style room.
Fully Self-Catering Accommodation
All four serviced apartments are designed to be genuinely self-catering. This is particularly important for contractors who may be staying for several weeks or months and want control over meals, routines, and costs.
Each flat includes:
- A fully equipped kitchen with cooking facilities
- A fridge and freezer
- Cooking utensils, crockery, and cutlery
- A dining area or dining space within the living area
Being able to prepare your own meals often makes longer stays more comfortable and significantly more economical than eating out or relying on hotel food.
Comfortable Living Space for Longer Stays
Unlike hotel rooms, our Andover contractor accommodation provides proper living space where you can relax, work, or unwind in the evenings.
Each apartment includes:
- A furnished living area with seating
- Space to watch television or read
- Reliable Wi-Fi for work or personal use
- Heating and hot water suitable for year-round stays
This separation between living and sleeping areas helps create a more normal routine, which many contractors find improves wellbeing during extended projects.
Private Bedrooms
Each apartment has a separate bedroom, providing privacy and a quieter sleeping environment than a studio or hotel room.
Bedrooms are furnished with:
- A proper bed suitable for regular use
- Storage for clothing and personal items
- Freshly prepared linen at the start of your stay
This makes the apartments suitable not just for short visits, but also for contractors working in Andover for several weeks at a time.
Parking and Access
Parking is often a key consideration for contractors, particularly those travelling to site each day.
At Eastgate House:
- Each of the four serviced apartments has its own allocated parking space at the rear of the building
- There is also a large public car park directly opposite the property
This provides flexibility for guests with multiple vehicles or visitors, and avoids the stress of searching for on-street parking after work.
Central Andover Location
Eastgate House is located in the centre of Andover, making it convenient for both local work sites and amenities.
From the apartments, you can easily access:
- Andover town centre
- Shops, supermarkets, and takeaways
- Cafés, pubs, and restaurants
- Andover railway station
- Main roads serving Hampshire and surrounding areas
This central position reduces commuting time and makes day-to-day living easier during your stay.
Ideal for a Range of Contractors
Our Andover contractor accommodation is commonly used by professionals working in:
- Construction and building trades
- Engineering and technical roles
- Utilities and infrastructure projects
- IT and consultancy assignments
- Maintenance and refurbishment projects
- Short-term corporate placements
The apartments are suitable for individuals, pairs of colleagues, or contractors working rotating shifts who need a dependable base.
Flexible Lengths of Stay
We understand that contract work does not always fit neatly into fixed timeframes. Our serviced apartments are therefore available for:
- Short stays
- Medium-term stays
- Extended stays by arrangement
This flexibility allows you to extend your stay if a project runs longer than expected, without needing to move accommodation.
Our Andover Contractor Accommodation – A Cost-Effective Alternative to Hotels
For contractors staying more than a few nights, serviced accommodation often offers better value than hotels.

- Parking included
- A more settled, residential feel
Many contractors find that serviced apartments are a more sustainable option for longer working assignments.
