What We Do For Nairn Property Owners
Guest Management
We handle every enquiry, booking, and communication from the moment a guest finds your listing to the moment they leave a review. Guests get fast, professional responses and a smooth experience from start to finish
Listing and Pricing
Your property will be listed and optimised across platforms including Airbnb and Booking.com, with dynamic pricing that responds to Nairn demand, local events, and seasonal peaks. More visibility, better rates, higher occupancy.
Maintenance and Repairs
When something goes wrong, we deal with it. We have a network of trusted trades across Nairn and the surrounding area who respond quickly, keeping your property in top condition and your guests happy.
Cleaning
Every changeover is managed by our trusted local cleaning team. The property is inspected before every arrival and standards are consistently high.
Compliance and Licensing
Short-term let licensing is now a legal requirement in Scotland. We guide Nairn property owners through every step of the process, from registration to fire safety requirements, so your property stays fully compliant.
Why Nairn Property Owners Choose Thistle
We know Nairn. We know that summer guests come for the beaches and the golf, that spring and autumn bring walkers and cyclists, and that the town's historic Fishertown is a draw all year round. We know how to position your property to make the most of every season.
Karen Bancroft, founder of Thistle Property Management, has been managing holiday lets across the Highlands for over fifteen years. She is an Airbnb Superhost, a member of the Association of Scotland's Self-Caterers, and is based in Nairn itself
