Not a generic hosting bundle

Choose the work.
Keep the control.

Some owners need dependable changeovers. Others need laundry, logistics, trades, licensing administration, interiors or an operating partner to coordinate the whole stay. Àite can bring those services together around one property-specific brief.

You keep the decisions you want. We agree what Àite handles, who is responsible, what needs your approval and what is priced separately.

One operating partner, across the stay

From the first
set-up to each reset.

Choose one service or bring the moving parts together. Each property gets a clear brief, agreed responsibilities and a practical local delivery plan.

01

Co-hosting & property management

Property-specific scope and quote

Day-to-day support for the parts of hosting you want off your desk, from guest messages and arrival information to calendar, turnover and maintenance coordination.

  • Guest enquiries and check-in information
  • Booking calendar and changeover coordination
  • Cleaning, linen and restocking oversight
  • Maintenance triage and owner escalation
02

Cleaning, laundry & logistics

Scoped to the property

We coordinate the practical reset around each arrival: the cleaner, linen, laundrette, supplies and the small logistics that keep a stay ready.

  • Changeover cleans and bed resets
  • Linen collection, laundrette and delivery
  • Keys, stock runs and agreed restocking
  • Turnover photos and issues reported
03

Trades & property care

Coordinated to the job and location

When something breaks or needs attention, we can arrange the right local tradesperson, coordinate access and keep the owner informed before work is approved.

  • Local trades and maintenance coordination
  • Issue photos and clear owner updates
  • Access and appointment logistics
  • Quotes and approval agreed with the owner
04

Interiors, staging & setup

Àite Studios quote after a brief

From a first furnishing plan to a finished guest-ready interior, Àite Studios can design, source, style and prepare the home for the way it will be used.

  • Interior design and room-by-room styling
  • Furniture, linen and accessory sourcing
  • Guest flow, storage and usability review
  • Listing launch and photography preparation
05

Licensing & business administration

Quoted after an initial review

Practical administrative support for owners setting up or running a Scottish short-term let, with responsibilities and next steps made clear.

  • Property-specific licensing document checklist
  • Application preparation and admin support
  • Certificate and inspection coordination
  • Operational admin and signposting to specialists

We confirm the work, responsibilities and full price in writing before anything starts. The quote depends on the property, location, access, laundry arrangements and the support you need. Licensing support is administrative, not legal or planning advice.

Ways to work together

Three clear
starting points.

These are working shapes, not fixed tiers. We’ll say plainly when something does not need to be included.

01 For a reliable reset

The Turnover

Scoped to the property

Cleaning and changeover coordination, with linen, laundry, laundrette runs, logistics, restocking and property checks included only where agreed for that home.

Best for: owners who manage bookings themselves and need the on-the-ground details coordinated reliably.

Discuss this option

02 For a new or changing listing

The Launch

Quoted after a setup brief

Interior design and setup, operational basics, licensing administration and launch coordination where needed. Àite Studios leads the interior and presentation work.

Best for: getting a home ready to list, relaunch or bring up to a stronger guest-ready standard.

Discuss this option

03 For ongoing operational support

The Co-host

Fee and responsibilities agreed in scope

Guest communication, calendar and turnover coordination, cleaning, linen, logistics, local trades and owner updates, tailored to the responsibilities you want to hand over.

Best for: hosts who want one operating partner to coordinate the moving parts while keeping the decisions they want to keep.

Available with any package

A welcome that
belongs to the home.

Every Àite package can be specified with a bespoke welcome book and guest welcome pack. We agree the contents and cost with you first, then make them fit the property—not a generic template.

  • Arrival, access and check-out information
  • How the home works, including appliances and house guidance
  • Safety, recycling, transport and local recommendations
  • A welcome pack selected for the home, guests and agreed budget

The examples shown are from a real property guide and welcome-pack presentation. Guest-specific access details are never published as marketing content.

The first impression, considered

Useful, local, and in keeping with the place.

Welcome packs can be built around Scottish treats, tea and coffee, refreshments or property-specific essentials. We agree contents, sourcing and restocking responsibility before anything is ordered.

Plan a guest welcome

The part hosts rarely get to outsource well

Make the standard
repeatable.

Before regular work starts, we establish the property’s actual requirements: what is supplied, what stays on site, what travels with the cleaner, how laundry is handled, where access is restricted and what needs to be reported.

01
Define the brief

Agree scope, responsibilities, access and property-specific instructions.

02
Build the working system

Set checklists, linen and supply expectations, and the reporting route.

03
Review and adjust

Use turnover photos and reported issues to catch gaps and refine the brief.

When operations need a stronger setting

Àite Studios.
Design with a job to do.

Àite Studios can help with interior design, furnishing and setup, sourcing, styling and finishing touches. The aim is a more coherent guest experience that still works for cleaning, storage and everyday use.

Discuss a property refresh

Coverage, without the guesswork

Across
Scotland.

We support hosts and stays throughout Scotland. Depending on the property, that can bring together our operations team and trusted local cleaners, laundrette services, logistics and tradespeople—with Àite Studios providing interiors and setup.

Before work starts, we agree the local delivery plan, responsibilities, access, response expectations and full price for that address.
