1. Definitions
“Agreement” means this contract, including all schedules and any written updates.

“Landlord” means the property owner or authorised person providing the Property for short-term rental.

2. Landlord Obligations
2.1 Pre-Check-In Requirements
-
The Landlord confirms they have the legal right to offer the property for short-term rental and will follow all relevant laws and regulations.
-
All properties must be fully furnished and include bed linen, towels, basic cleaning supplies, and all utilities. These costs must be included in the agreed nightly rate.
-
Before any bookings go live, the Landlord must provide proof of:
-
Public liability insurance (£2–£5 million cover)
-
A valid gas safety certificate
-
Landlord insurance
-
Any surveillance equipment at the property (e.g., CCTV, Ring doorbells, or other recording devices) must be disclosed to the Company before a booking is accepted. If not disclosed, the Company may require the equipment to be switched off for the full stay or may cancel the booking with a full refund. See Schedule 1 for full details.
-
Before each booking, the Landlord must tell the Company about any important property details or known issues—such as broken appliances, shared areas, unusual layouts, planned maintenance visits, or limited parking.
-
The Landlord agrees, upon a booking being confirmed, to facilitate a live video walk-through of the property. This will act as the Condition Report. Where issues are identified and are unable to be resolved prior to Guest check-in, the Landlord agrees to a cancellation and full refund for the booking.
-
The property must be professionally cleaned before every check-in. If it is not (and photo/video evidence shows this), the Guest may receive up to £100 in compensation, funded by the Landlord. The Landlord must then resolve the issue promptly. If the Guest opts to leave the property, the Landlord must refund the Company in full and offer £100 compensation which will be offered to the Guest.
-
A detailed, non-branded check-in manual must be provided to the Company at least 48 hours before check-in. For weekend or bank-holiday arrivals, it must be submitted by 5pm on the preceding Thursday. See Schedule 2 for full requirements.
-
The Landlord must provide an invoice for each booking, including dates, bank details, VAT information (if applicable), and the agreed nightly rate. The cancellation policy must be clearly stated on the invoice. If not, a 7-day in-house cancellation policy will be assumed
-
The Landlord agrees to either a 7- or 14-day in-house cancellation policy. If cancelled before noon, the landlord will be paid a further 7 or 14 nights after cancellation. If cancelled after noon, cancellation will be effective from the following day. If funds are owed back to the Company (e.g., due to cancellation or overpayment), the Landlord must refund the balance within seven days. Late refunds will incur a 5% weekly fee.
-
In the event of a Landlord cancelling a booking, they agree to compensate the Guest, look for alternative accommodation options and pay the difference.

The Landlord must be reachable by phone 24/7 for urgent Guest issues.
-
