We dreamed up Kip to make holiday-planning simple. Finding amazing rentals is incredibly time consuming, even stressful! How do you cut through the dross on enormous sites? Are the reviews reliable? And are you getting the best price? Something that should be fun can become a real headache.
We’d worked in the boutique travel industry for years and realised there was a gap in the market for our expertise: a website that only features the very best self-catering hideaways for 2-18 people, all gorgeous and totally unique, with sky-high owner standards. And through endless research and insider contacts we choose the very best ones to add to Kip (to give you an idea, less than 10% of everything we look at makes the grade).
We love their incredible style, and we really love the thoughtful details that make each so special. Perhaps a hand-drawn map of the owner’s favourite walks. A mini telescope so you can stargaze. A homemade cake waiting by the teapot when you arrive. It’s been brilliant finding owners who genuinely care that their guests have an amazing stay.
Many of the hideaways fly under the radar (it’s part of their appeal), so to help keep them exclusive we decided on a membership site. And by doing so, we created a community of like-minded souls to share our discoveries with. We love doing this! Our reviews are unique, honest and impartial – the things we’d tell our friends. We even highlight the potential drawbacks of each place to help you choose.
Then you can instantly book through Kip with owner-direct prices and — unlike other sites — no booking fee.
Join Kip Insiders and you’ll also unlock secret promotions (eg 3 nights for the price of 2) and partner perks (discounts & freebies with our favourite brands). Best of all, our Insiders get 48-hour early booking access to each new addition to Kip, so you can bag the best dates before we tell everyone!
Just £20/year or £4.99/month.
