Book For Less Direct
Book For Less Direct helps connect contractors, companies, relocation clients, and corporate guests with flexible furnished accommodation across Bristol and surrounding areas.
Our focus is on generating longer-term direct bookings for landlords and serviced accommodation operators through contractor and corporate demand, without relying solely on online travel agencies such as Airbnb or Booking.com.
We work with a growing network of property owners across Bristol to help generate:
- contractor stays
- corporate accommodation
- relocation bookings
- team accommodation
- and flexible longer-term occupancy
Unlike traditional Airbnb management companies, we do not take over the operational management of properties. Instead, we act as an additional direct booking and contractor-focused distribution channel alongside landlords' existing setup.
This means landlords:
- retain full control of their properties
- continue managing their own operations and guest stays
- and only pay a 7.5% fee on successfully placed bookings
There are:
- no upfront onboarding costs
- no monthly subscription fees
- and no long-term management contracts required
3-step process.

Testimonials
We had a beautiful stay in Ovingdean. What a lovely property and very accommodating hosts. It’s very spacious, perfect for big family getaways. Beds very comfortable and a lovely kitchen. Great spot for walks and the views near the property are just gorgeous! Just outside of Brighton. Would recommend and would love to stay again one day!

Trustpilot Review
We had a fantastic stay from start to finish. The property was spotless, spacious, and had everything we needed for a relaxing break. The bedrooms were comfortable, the kitchen was well equipped, and there was plenty of room for everyone to unwind. The location was peaceful yet close enough to local attractions, making it the perfect base for exploring. We would happily stay here again and highly recommend it to others.

Trustpilot Review
A wonderful place to stay with family and friends. The house was beautifully presented, very clean, and felt welcoming as soon as we arrived. We especially loved the spacious living areas and comfortable beds, and the hosts were friendly and responsive throughout our stay. The surrounding area is lovely, with plenty of scenic walks and easy access to nearby towns. We thoroughly enjoyed our visit and would definitely return.
