Scotland’s short-term let market is booming—and if your property is sitting idle or underperforming, we can help unlock its full potential.
At Orion Short Stays, we manage holiday lets that feel like home and work like a business. From city flats to countryside escapes, we handle everything to turn your space into a high-performing rental.

1
Let’s Meet the Property
We’ll schedule a visit to get to know your space. During the walkthrough, we’ll provide feedback on setup, suggest upgrades (if needed), and advise on license requirements to get you fully compliant.

Clean, Style & Set Up
We’ll arrange a deep clean with eco-friendly products, add plush towels and bath mats, and manage linens if needed. Extras like slippers or snacks? Just let us know—we’ll handle it.

Capturing the Perfect First Impression
We’ll organise a professional photo shoot to showcase your property in the best light. People book with their eyes first—so we make sure your listing turns heads.

Go Live
Once everything is ready, your listing goes live. We take care of bookings, guest messaging, contractor coordination, and everything else that goes into a smooth guest experience.
