Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you might want to know before booking.

No. You don't pay anything through the site to send a booking request. Payment is settled directly with the guest house, so there's no advance charge and no card details needed to enquire.
Yes. Every property is reviewed by our team before it goes live - we don't allow self-serve listings to publish automatically. That's why the catalogue grows slowly, but it means what you see is real.
