Who stays

Every guest checked, before they are a guest.

A request is not a booking until we have looked at it: who is coming, how many and why, against the house rules you agreed. Parties and events are turned away.

Pricing

The right price, not just the highest.

Many owners price a house so high it rarely gets booked. We show you what the market will pay, then agree a floor with you: a little lower for more income across the year, or higher for fewer, better-paid stays.

  • Prices updated dailyFor seasons, school holidays and local events
  • A floor we agree togetherReviewed with you as the year goes on
  • Minimum stays you chooseLonger stays in the busiest weeks

Who books homes like this

Bigger budgets, longer stays.

Large, high-spec homes attract guests who want space, privacy and a proper home rather than a hotel, often for weeks rather than nights.

All year, around the scheduleFilm, TV and sport

Cast, crew and athletes working nearby, usually booked by the production or team for weeks at a time.

A typical pattern, not a forecast. Brighter means busier.

FAQs

There is no fixed line. It is usually a home with four or more bedrooms, a high-spec finish, or something guests will pay more for, such as a pool, grounds, a view or a hot tub. If you are not sure, ask for an assessment and we will tell you whether this service fits.
