By listing across Airbnb, Booking.com, Vrbo and more, Essex homes reach both business travellers (Chelmsford/Colchester) and leisure guests along the coast (Southend, Leigh-on-Sea). We price by day-of-week, season and events to lift visibility and keep occupancy steady.
With ADR around £120 and 64% occupancy, well-run homes in Essex gross roughly £27,980/yr before fees and tax. Demand climbs through late spring and peaks in July. In peak weeks ADR typically runs ~25% above baseline, about £150/night, so keep Fri–Sun minimum stays tighter and relax mid-week to keep calendars full and lift overall RevPAR.

I’ve been incredibly lucky with Alex Taylor: professional, friendly, and always helpful. He’s handled everything brilliantly - I’d give him 6 stars if I could.
For the past year, my Houst contact has been incredibly helpful - coordinating repairs, upgrades, and even being on-site when needed. Super reliable and accommodating.
The staff is available 24/7. Messages sent are replied to very quickly. The information about the properties is detailed and clear. Everything goes very smoothly.
The house is well maintained and clean, the dashboard provides up to date and historical information & the guests are taken care of.
