A guide to short term letting in Poole
Poole is a popular destination for short stays. Its historical harbour, pretty town and proximity to both the popular Sandbanks and the Jurassic Coast means visitors are drawn here from all over the UK as well as internationally.
On top of this, you have large industries, creating a demand for those travelling on business. These two combined makes Poole a lucrative market for short term rentals both in the summer months but also throughout out of season periods too.
Here at Grandeur we have been managing short term rentals in Poole since our beginnings, and wanted to share valuable insights to those thinking about investing or converting to short term lets.
If you are thinking about short term letting, Poole is a great location to invest. Its high visitor numbers and corporate demand means you can really optimise occupancy year round and drive a strong return on your investment. To go into a little more detail:
Popular tourist destination
A pretty historical harbour town, Poole appeals to many visitors looking for a short break on the coast. It has great restaurants and cafes, Blue Flag beaches, boat trips to Brownsea Island, and beautiful surrounding areas, with the Jurassic Coast on your doorstep as well as the popular Sandbanks.
This not only attracts families during the peak holiday seasons, but also draws couples who want to take a short break in out of season periods. The connections to London and surrounding areas also makes Poole a popular choice for many looking to escape the city for a few days.
Visitors also come from far and wide for key events in the calendar, including Poole Harbour Boatshow, Summer Fireworks and Poole Harbour Festival.
Contractor stays
One of the greatest benefits to short term rentals in Poole, is the opportunity to let your property in the out of season months to business travellers. Demand from maritime, engineering, and defence industries makes it a lucrative market year round.
