In reply to Sam Beaton:
I have a 2 bedroom house I let out through Air BnB. First let was in July. So far I have had 15 sets of visitors. 14 have been great - no bother at all and left my place pristine. The other one left a bit of a mess and stole daft inconsequential stuff. Not bad enough to make a fuss about, but enough to be annoying.
Air BnB is very easy to set up, take some pics, write a blurb and upload. I uploaded mine late one evening and had bookings by the time I got up the next morning. They sort out the money side of things too, so you don’t have to chase people for cash.
In my case, it is a lot of work, cleaning and laundry wise, so be prepared for that.
Good luck
