Moving Back Home to Travel Back Again
 
Hello,


I have just completed my travels around Malta, Greece, Albania and Serbia and am moving back to bristol to refuel and work for a few months, no more than 5 I would say, does anyone know of short term places that would accommodate me knowing I was not to stay very long? It's starting to make me very anxious!

Thanks

Phae

Find a room to rent in Bristol. Problem solved.

I stayed with http://www.cliftonshortlets.com/

Easy, one week stay minimum and Clifton is pretty surreal! Done!

I would not go down the route of holiday lets - and that includes Airbnb - because nightly or weekly rates with short term vacation rentals are unlikely to be as cost effective as a residential letting for any term beyond a few weeks. Besides which, contrary to popular (mis)belief, the majority of properties on Airbnb are mostly owner occupied and will free up for no more than a few days to a couple of weeks at a time. There are some residential lettings that will sign you on on a month by month basis (you need to hunt around to find them though), and if not a 6 month lease sounds like it would work for you. The Rightmove link above and any agencies that advertise in the local paper(s) are your best bets.

Thanks all- short term lets look good! I have also been looking at cheap hotels, and this one looks alright- http://www.cliftonhotels.com/bristol-hotels/washington/

Also does anyone have any info on staying in spare rooms in people's houses?

Thanks
