Rachel's knowledge of lettings is second to none. When my property was ready, we hit the ground running with back to back bookings throughout 2023. Rachel deals with all the guests bookings from start to finish and takes great care to ensure all the information needed for a hassle free stay is handed over to the guests prior to their arrival. Rachel's management skills ensure that my property reaches its full potential and is professionally managed.  I would highly recommend Rachel to any who is thinking of having their prize property put on the lettings market.

ABOUT US

We have both lived in Kent all our lives and in 2005 moved our little family from Mid Kent to the beautiful coastal area of East Kent. We love the open spaces, beaches and abundance of fresh air. The coastline and countryside mix gives plenty of interest and throughout the year and we regularly walk our dogs on the beaches and enjoy the many local restaurants. 

 

Around 2005 we also stepped into the world of property and opened our first holiday let in Whitstable. Over the years the industry has transformed, with the groundbreaking launch and then dominance of AirBNB, the industry has boomed in East Kent.   

When a few of our fellow professionals asked us to manage their holiday homes we realised there is a real need for local, professional, knowledgeable holiday home managers who take care of the property as if they own it. It's one thing listing on Airbnb and outsourcing the cleaning, but having 'boots on the ground' is the key to having a successful business. That's what we do. 

 

Our love of the area, network of specialists and trades and our experience in property ensures that we can deliver a fabulous service to our clients. 

As founders we are hands on with the day to day running of our business, we have a small team working with us to ensure that we can keep all the balls in the air and deal with the peaks, troughs, highs and lows of the holiday let industry. 

We aim to ensure your revenue is maximised with your hassle minimised!
