Wednesday 30th November, 2022 by Host & Stay

Host & Stay 5* Service

Host & Stay have expanded to two new regions in the United Kingdom, and we are excited to bring our unbeatable service to more guests and owners across the country, most recently being Manchester and Leicestershire.

2022 has been an exceptional year for us, winning Best Property Management Provider at the National Landlord Investment Show Awards and Best Leisure Property Management Company at the Shortyz Awards. This success has inspired Rachel Sherwood (Leicestershire) and Joel Higgins (Manchester) to become franchisees of our Host & Stay brand.

Host & Stay Leicestershire

Rachel Sherwood’s enthusiasm jumps off the page as she explains why she and her partner took the leap to become franchisees: “We are excited to announce the launch of Host & Stay Leicestershire. My partner and I are pleased to be rolling Host & Stay out into the Midlands area. Being property developers and investors ourselves, owning a mixed portfolio of properties, including our own short stay properties, we felt that working alongside the Host & Stay brand was a natural calling for us.”

She continues: “We have always believed in the merit of providing high quality housing so adopting the Host & Stay ethos of premium high-end properties is a good fit. What we really loved about the Host & Stay brand is the end-to-end service they provide for property owners and guests alike. We feel very excited about the coming year and have big plans to grow the business in our area by reaching out to property owners interested in maximising the return from their properties. These are exciting times for Host & Stay Leicestershire!”

Dale Smith, CEO and Director of Host & Stay, echoes the same enthusiasm adding: “It’s fantastic to see our Host & Stay brand open the doors in Manchester and Leicestershire. After just over three successful years of growing the brand in the North East of England and growing to 700 units under management, we’re excited to be able to support our new Franchise Partners in growing Host & Stay in the west of the country and continuing to help more owners generate more income from their property.”

Experts in Holiday Home Management

Owners that come on board with the Host & Stay receive an exceptional service that includes: maximum listing exposure across 60+ global channels, editorial photography, revenue optimisation, cleaning and laundry services, end to end guest communication, property maintenance and 360 account management.

What really makes us stand out above the rest is our monthly rolling contract and 10% commission for owners, which is significantly less than our competitors. Owners can also enjoy unlimited use of their properties with no restrictions.

When becoming a Host & Stay franchisee, you have access to a complete business blueprint that will help you build your own portfolio of premium self-catering properties. Franchisees of Host & Stay receive full support from the main brand and internal team, which includes marketing, operations, back office, banking, accounting and guest and owner communication.

Host & Stay Manchester

This is just one of the reasons why Joel Higgins decided to take on the Manchester Host & Stay franchise, he says: “Knowing I had the full support of an established company to guide me throughout gave me great confidence.”

He adds: “Host & Stay have gone from strength to strength, with rapid growth in such a short period of time, during the growth they have never compromised on the quality of their properties, the care guests receive or support the owners get. I look forward to growing Host & Stay Manchester with the same ethos, I can’t wait to see where we are next year!”

Hands free Property Management

Our team have enjoyed continuous and sustained growth since its very beginning in 2018, when we had 9 properties in our portfolio. Today that portfolio stands at over 700 properties, operating across four regions; North Yorkshire, Northumberland, Manchester and Leicestershire.

Born from a love and passion for property and a desire to lead the change in an age old industry; our aim was to revolutionise holiday home management. Our holiday homeowners benefit from a completely hands-free, hassle-free property management service, allowing them to unlock their properties’ full earning potential.

It’s just not just about the holiday homeowners however, our guests enjoy the best of serviced accommodation; stunning locations, beautiful properties and round the clock guest communication.
