Holiday Property Services: Rental Process

Our Services 

Owning a holiday home should feel exciting — not overwhelming.

At Key Turner Management, we’ve spent nearly a decade helping owners across Dorset & Somerset keep their properties guest-ready, bookings flowing, and changeovers running smoothly.

We offer clear management packages — from full holiday let management to flexible support — so you can choose the level of involvement that works best for you, without the stress of juggling it all yourself.

Full Holiday Let Management

If you’d like us to handle everything, our full management service means you don’t have to lift a finger. We’ll take care of:

  • Guest liaison and communications

  • All bookings, enquiries, and reservations

  • Cleaning and changeovers to 5★ guest-ready standards

  • Regular property checks and ongoing maintenance coordination

  • Emergency call-outs and problem solving

Whether it’s a burst pipe at midnight or a guest locked out, we’re the ones who pick up the call and fix it

Airbnb Co-Hosting & Hosting Support — Powered by HolidayHost

Professional Airbnb co-hosting, with local support and more flexibility for owners.

Fees at a glance

Our co-hosting service is powered by HolidayHost, combining their specialist support for Airbnb listings, pricing, bookings and guest communication with KTM’s local, hands-on support across Dorset & Somerset.

For some owners, that means using HolidayHost as an Airbnb co-host while keeping the parts of their setup that already work well — such as existing cleaners, contractors or maintenance arrangements.

For others, it means using HolidayHost alongside KTM’s management services for complete wraparound support. That can include Airbnb co-hosting and guest communication together with local changeovers, housekeeping coordination, property checks, maintenance support and hands-on management on the ground.

 

  • Monthly management: £125–£185 (package dependent)

  • Per booking changeover: £50–£300 (property size)

  • AirBnb Hosting Powered by HolidayHost 9% Commission

Setting up a holiday let for the first time?

It’s exciting — but it comes with questions you might not have thought of. How many sets of linen do I need? Where do I keep all the cleaning supplies? What safety checks are essential?

At Key Turner Management, we’ve helped countless owners across Dorset & Somerset turn their properties into smooth-running holiday lets. From renovation tips and furnishing choices to safety compliance, storage solutions, and online listings, we’ll guide you through every step.

With nearly a decade of hands-on experience, we know the pitfalls to avoid and the details that make a big difference. The result? A property that’s guest-ready, stress-light, and earning from day one.

Changeovers & Maintenance

A proper changeover is where good reviews are won (and bad ones avoided). It’s not about racing round with a hoover — it’s about the details that make a house feel cared for. That’s where we put our energy.

When Key Turner manages a property, guests don’t walk into mildew in the washing machine seal, crumbs in the toaster tray, or garden furniture that looks like it’s been out all winter. They walk into a home that feels fresh, thought-through, and ready. Beds are made up with crisp linen, bathrooms are stocked without you having to think about it, and yes — the tea bags and coffee are topped up too.

We’ve learned the difference between “clean” and “guest-ready,” and it’s the small touches that set the tone for an entire stay. Add to that our regular property checks, eyes on maintenance, and trusted local contractors, and you’ve got more than a clean house — you’ve got a home that works the way it should.
