Run your short-let like someone who's done it before

Shortlet Playbook is a free library of practical guides for owners who rent out a property short-term in the UK and Ireland — from getting the place guest-ready to pricing it right and keeping the reviews coming. Alongside the guides, our earnings benchmark shows what comparable homes in London and Dublin actually price, book and earn, built from public listing data.

What's inside

Every guide on this site answers one concrete question a host asks early on: how do I photograph this room, what do I put in a welcome book, how do I answer a bad review without making it worse. No filler, no theory — steps you can act on the same day.

Where the numbers come from

The earnings benchmark pulls from Inside Airbnb's public listing snapshots for London and Dublin — not guesses. We publish the method and the snapshot date on every figure so you can judge how fresh it is.
