Wind Farms and Wellbeing – providing a ‘Home from Home’

Everyone in Thanet is familiar with the wind farms, gently whirling away just off our shoreline producing green energy, but how often do we think about the teams that work long hours to keep them turning? At Belmont Accommodation, the answer to that question is every day.

Belmont Accommodation’s research told them that crews working on the windfarms had accommodation needs beyond hotels and holiday lets. Coming from an engineering and fire service background, they found they could relate to crews, having both worked long shifts and stayed away from their home, and wanted to improve their stay in Ramsgate.

Belmont Accommodation is an everevolving serviced accommodation company that focuses on not only the welfare of the workers, but the managers that book them, and the homeowners that let them borrow their homes. They enjoy return custom and regular new bookings.

They want to make the crews downtime in between shifts as relaxing and comfortable as possible whilst they recuperate after long shifts out at sea. They pride themselves on having properties of a great standard and providing a ‘home from home’ experience including welcome baskets. Once a company books with Belmont, all the crew needs to do is arrive, have a cuppa, relax and let the team take care of the rest.
