A local team that knows you & your property
The only thing we need from you is the dates you want blocked.

They oversee every booking, check in on the property between stays and keep you updated. When a guest locks themselves out at 9pm or the boiler stops on a Saturday, our local contractors can be there the same day.

The case for short-lets
Why Edinburgh outperforms
for short-lets & Airbnbs
No single point of failure. Demand comes from tourism, events, business travel and university visitors independently of each other. When one is quiet, the others are not. Since 1 May 2026, Section 21 is gone and every AST is a periodic tenancy you cannot simply end. Short-letting sits outside that framework entirely.
Licence required
A short-term let licence is mandatory in Scotland, and planning permission may apply in Edinburgh. We manage it for you.

Rate premium during the August Festival and Hogmanay

Typical annual revenue for a 1-bed city flat
The Fringe, International Festival and Book Festival turn August into the busiest month of the year. Nightly rates can run at three times normal levels, and the best-located flats are booked many months in advance.
Edinburgh's Hogmanay celebrations draw visitors from all over the world, with stays of three to five nights over New Year and strong demand across the whole holiday period.
The Castle, Royal Mile and Arthur's Seat attract millions of visitors each year, and the city remains popular from spring to autumn. Occupancy stays high even outside the main events.
Six Nations matches at Murrayfield, plus finance, universities and conferences, bring dependable midweek and event-weekend demand.
Straight answers
The four most common concerns, answered.
Straight answers to the questions you are actually asking. No hedging.
Can I leave whenever I want?
Yes. Our agreement runs month to month with 30 days' notice. Block any dates you want the property back, no questions asked. No lock-in, no penalties, no eviction process.
What if a guest damages my property?
Every guest is ID-verified before they book. We cover you up to £50,000 directly, and Airbnb's Aircover adds up to $3 million on top. If a claim is needed, we'll handle the Aircover claim for you with the evidence collected.
What does it actually cost me?
From 12% + VAT, charged only on nights that book, so if your property sits empty, you pay nothing. A one-off £150 onboarding fee covers setup. Cleaning is paid by the guest, not you.
Is short-letting allowed in my flat?
Edinburgh: A short-term let licence is mandatory in Scotland, and planning permission may apply in Edinburgh. We manage it for you.. We check your lease, mortgage and insurance for restrictions, arrange any safety certificates, and handle compliance end to end, so you don't have to worry.
