    The Chilterns, encompassing idyllic market towns like Amersham, Thame, Buckingham, and premium villages such as Haddenham, Great Missenden and Wendover, is a high-demand area for short-term rentals. Hosts in this region often seek ways to maximise income while avoiding the stress of guest management, cleaning coordination, and dynamic pricing. Pass the Keys Chilterns provides a fully managed solution that combines local expertise with national-level systems, offering the best balance of personalised support and professional efficiency.


    Local Market Overview

    Property owners in the Chilterns & Buckinghamshire commonly consider:

    • Traditional letting agents – Specialise in long-term leases; limited knowledge of short-let regulations, dynamic pricing, and guest experience.

    • National Airbnb management platforms (e.g., GuestReady, Houst) – Offer automation and technology but often lack responsive local support.

    • Independent holiday-let providers – Provide short-term rental support but usually lack multi-platform listing strategies, professional photography, or full-service property management.

    Pass the Keys Chilterns fills this gap by providing a local, on-the-ground team backed by a national framework of technology, dynamic pricing tools, and 24/7 guest support.
