Company mission

To bring a fresh and modern service to Airbnb Management and Holiday Letting in the rolling hills of the Cotswolds and surrounding areas.

Our take

The popularity of holiday rentals has risen steadily over the years, with platforms such as Airbnb making it much easier for people to rent out their spaces short-term. Red Kite wants to build on this, with a cross-platform hosting service that allows owners to make the most out of their rented properties.

The idea behind Red Kite is to be a one-stop-shop for optimising holiday rentals. Managed homes are listed across all major booking platforms including Airbnb, Booking.com, and Vrbo, with professional photography and descriptions included. On top of this, the company's dynamic pricing strategy ensures the best possible returns for each property, and hosts can even choose to add cleaning and maintenance services to their packages.

All-in-all, it's an attractive proposition for those who want to rent out their spaces short-term without spending the time to manage multiple listings. With a founder who has a wealth of experience as an Airbnb host, Red Kite is starting from experienced foundations, and it will be interesting to see where it goes from here.
