Would suggest looking at Open Rent - doesn't specifically deal with

short rents, but you do deal directly with the landlords & overheads

on the site are so low, they may be more aminable to short/6m rent.


We found a local flat for while we have work done on the house & ended

up taking out a 6m contract but even those were rare & we have needed

nearly all the 6m's), but found it all much less stressful than dealing

with estate agents.

Try the "Residential property in East Dulwich" section of this very site. There are usually quite a few in there. Rent is usually similar the to the standard rental amount you'd pay for longer periods.

If you go through an agent - ie foxtons type the short term let fees will be significantly higher than market rent - but really they're aimed at people on work placements etc and are typically fully furnished including crockery etc. If you need a short term let for a house sale, looking on here is probably a good bet or airbnb as noted by the previous poster.

We needed somewhere to stay for 6 weeks in the summer and stayed in some holiday let apartments in Catford of all places. They weren't glamorous but had a fab indoor swimming pool which kept the kids happy and you can book week by week. Here's the website

    • My partner parked in a loading bay in Orpheus Street SE5 to get some heavy items from Cowling & Wilcox Art Supplies for his business. The whole transaction took less than 5 minutes. He came back, loaded and left - with a fine for parking in a loading bay “without loading within 2 minutes”!!  He made an online appeal but it was turned down- letter attached.   I think the main points he contested are;   You can’t walk to C&W, pick up a box and walk back in 2 minutes, so how can ‘evidence of loading be seen’ in that time? They were not ‘general domestic shopping.’ They were bulky and heavy. The vehicle was moved immediately on returning to it with the goods. So, he met ALL the criteria they have stipulated as reasons for issuing the PCN. If anyone has successfully or unsuccessfully  appealed against a similar loading bay fine do let me know, thanks!
