Accommodation That Works Around Your Project
Blue Short Lets provides flexible serviced accommodation for contractors, engineers, business travellers and project teams.
Whether you need accommodation for one person or an entire team, for a week or several months, we offer comfortable properties with the facilities needed for everyday living.
Where our own portfolio doesn't meet your requirements, we can also source suitable accommodation in other locations.
The people we accommodate
Contractors and project teams are only part of it. Choose one of the nine to see what matters for that kind of stay, and how we look after it.
01 of 09
When fire, flood or an escape of water puts a home out of use, the household needs somewhere to live while it is put right. We house families and individuals at short notice where we have space, for as long as the repairs take, in a whole home with a kitchen rather than a hotel room.
- Short-notice placements when a property is free
- Whole homes, so a family can keep its routine
- Stays that extend as the repair schedule moves
02 of 09
Site teams on a project for weeks or months need a proper base: somewhere to park, somewhere to wash workwear, and a kitchen to cook in after a long shift. We house individuals and whole crews, and move the booking with the programme.
- Parking on site at most of our properties
- A washing machine in every property
- A room each, or shared to suit the budget
03 of 09
For care and support providers who need a furnished, self-contained home for the person they support, for a short placement or while a longer-term home is arranged. We provide and look after the home; the support stays with the provider.
- Self-contained, fully furnished homes
- Ground-floor properties to ask about
- One contact for the provider throughout
04 of 09
Locums, agency nurses, doctors in training and visiting clinicians on placement in Dundee and across Tayside. Somewhere quiet to sleep after a night shift, a kitchen to cook in, and a rate that reflects the length of the placement.
- Stays from a few nights to a full rotation
- Private apartments rather than shared halls
- Extended with a phone call when a placement runs on
05 of 09
Delegates on courses, inductions and training weeks. A shared apartment for the group rather than a row of hotel rooms, with a table to sit at in the evening and a kitchen for breakfast.
- Properties that sleep up to six
- One booking for the whole group
- Extra nights arranged if the course runs over
06 of 09
Professionals new to Dundee, or here on a contract, who would rather share a well-kept apartment than live out of a hotel: a bedroom of their own, a shared kitchen and sitting room, and wi-fi, linen and towels provided.
- A bedroom each in a shared apartment
- Fully furnished and fully equipped
- Monthly stays at a rate that reflects the length
07 of 09
A calm, private place to rest: after a stay in hospital, between treatments, or simply to take a break. A whole apartment with a proper bed and a kitchen, for as long or as short a time as it takes.
- Private, self-contained apartments
- Ground-floor properties to ask about
- Stays as short or as long as you need
08 of 09
For universities and colleges when halls are full at the start of term, and for students between tenancies. Furnished rooms in shared apartments, by the week or for the term.
- Rooms in furnished, shared apartments
- Weekly stays or a whole term
- Arranged with the institution or the student
09 of 09
For housing associations, councils and landlords who need to move residents out while major works are carried out. Furnished homes for the length of the works, so the job can start on time and residents are not left waiting.
- Households housed together
- Stays that follow the works programme
- One contact for the landlord and the residents

We Find the Right Accommodation
We'll check our own portfolio first.
If we don't have the right availability or location, we can help source suitable alternatives through our wider accommodation network.
One Point of Contact
You'll have direct contact with our team for the booking, arrival and stay rather than having to deal with multiple providers.
Flexible Extensions
Project dates change.
If your team needs to stay longer, we'll check availability and arrange an extension wherever possible.
Designed for Working Away From Home
For stays lasting several weeks, having the right facilities makes a significant difference.
Our properties provide private living space, comfortable bedrooms, fully equipped kitchens, Wi-Fi and laundry facilities, allowing guests to live more normally while working away from home.
For teams, we can also prioritise accommodation that provides separate bedrooms and avoids room sharing where required.
