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, all gorgeous and totally unique, with top owner standards. Through endless research and insider contacts we handpick 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 one 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 a wonderful stay.
Our reviews are honest and impartial, the things we’d tell our friends. We even highlight the potential drawbacks of each place to help you choose. And you can book instantly through Kip, at the owner’s own prices and, unlike other sites, with no booking fee.
Want a little more? Join Kip Insiders, our optional membership for people who want first pick. Insiders get 48-hour early access to every new hideaway, so you can bag the best dates before we tell everyone, plus secret promotions (like £50 off our latest finds) and partner perks (discounts and freebies with our favourite brands). Just £25/year or £4.99/month.
