We are a considerate and tidy local family looking for a place to stay while building work on our house is completed. We are a professional couple with two sons (1.5yrs and 6yrs).


We would ideally be looking for a minimum of 2 bedrooms from Sunday 30th September to Sunday 27th October.


If you or anyone you know is going on holiday and looking to make some extra money during that period then let us know.


We could move during that 4 weeks so if you are away for 2 weeks or more we would be keen to hear from you.


Thank you

Hi Chloe - are you looking for somewhere from 30 August (as in subject) or from 30 September? If 30 Aug, I have a flat (2 bed, 2 bathroom, garden) you might be interested in. We are renting it out short term while we wait for the sale to go through and it will be available again on 29/30 Aug. However, it's unfurnished and in Streatham - let me know if this is suitable and I'll send you more details.

    • Wow I had no idea they give you 5% in perfume for your accommodation. You're right, I need to travel more. 
    • Do none of you go abroad.  Tourist taxes are really common in continental Europe and do vary a lot city by city. They are collected by the hotels/rental apartments. They are usually a  tiny part of your holiday costs.  In Narbonne recently we paid €1.30 per person per night.  The next town we went to charge 80 cents per person per night. By comparison Cologne is 5% of your accomodation.
    • Hey Sue, I was wrong - I don't think it would just be for foreign tourists. So yeah I assume that, if someone lives in Lewisham and wants to say the night in southwark, they'd pay a levy.  The hotels wouldn't need to vet anyone's address or passports - the levy is automatically added on top of the bill by every hotel / BnB / hostel and passed on to Southwark. So basically, you're paying an extra two quid a night, or whatever, to stay in this borough.  It's a great way to drive footfall... to the other London boroughs.  https://www.ukpropertyaccountants.co.uk/uk-tourist-tax-exploring-the-rise-of-visitor-levies-and-foreign-property-charges/
    • Pretty much, Sue, yeah. It's the perennial, knotty problem of imposing a tax and balancing that with the cost of collecting it.  The famous one was the dog licence - I think it was 37 1/2 pence when it was abolished, but the revenue didn't' come close to covering the administration costs. As much I'd love to have a Stasi patrolling the South Bank, looking for mullet haircuts, unshaven armpits, overly expressive hand movements and red Kicker shoes, I'm afraid your modern Continental is almost indistinguishable from your modern Londoner. That's Schengen for you. So you couldn't justify it from an ROI point of view, really. This scheme seems a pretty good idea, overall. It's not perfect, but it's cheap to implement and takes some tax burden off Southwark residents.   'The Man' has got wise to this. It's got bad juju now. If you're looking to rinse medium to large amounts of small denomination notes, there are far better ways. Please drop me a direct message if you'd like to discuss this matter further.   Kind Regards  Dave
