A Scottish firm is hoping to convince landlords in the West Country to let it take the strain in the short-let market.
Short-term let management firm mySTAYINN explains that licensing requirements for HMOs and holiday lets in Bristol, along with proposed stricter planning rules in Bath, are prompting independent landlords to rethink their options.
While it avoids converting residential flats into holiday accommodation, it focuses on purpose-built guesthouses and aparthotels and has onboarded nearly 50 properties in Bristol and Bath in the last few months following success in Scotland, according to Somerset Live.
Co-founder Pav Masutes says Bristol and Bath are exciting, high-demand markets, which are also evolving rapidly when it comes to regulation. “This requires a responsible model, like mySTAYINN, that gives landlords the confidence to remain active, compliant, and profitable in this shifting environment,” he adds. “That means compliance first, not chasing quick wins at the expense of residents.
“Our focus is on guest-ready buildings and achieving professional standards. By combining data-led pricing with a guest-first service model, we ensure our owners maximise their returns while supporting the wider visitor economies of these cities.”
mySTAYINN offers a full-service solution, allowing owners to navigate red tape while increasing returns. Services include a 72-point cleaning checklist backed by photographic proof, regular inspections by experienced property managers, and a digital guest guidebook featuring how-to videos, interactive maps, and bookable local tours.
According to mySTAYINN, landlords using its platform see a typical revenue increase of between 22 and 40% within the first year.
