Kent & Sussex Holiday Letting
Would you like to let your holiday home, but don’t know where to start? Or are you an experienced holiday homeowner looking for advice or ideas? How about a fresh pair of eyes on your holiday let business?
With over 30 years’ experience in holiday letting, we know that success in this highly-competitive market comes from building strong, long-term partnerships with owners. We handpick only the best houses we can find in Kent & Sussex and, once they join the Bloom Stays family, we work closely with owners to make sure they, indeed, bloom.
And our name? Well, we live and work in the Garden of England, so that seemed right for us. We want everyone to ‘bloom’ whether you’re staying in our houses as a guest, or you’re an owner.
Let’s get you to the right place…

About Bloom Stays
Co-founded by Rowena Owen and Nicky Russon in 2019, Bloom Stays is an independent holiday letting agency based in Canterbury, Kent. We have 100+ houses available for holiday letting throughout Kent and Sussex, each holiday home remarkable in its own way. It may have a pool, a breathtaking view, an orchard in the garden or its own vineyard. It could be in the middle of Canterbury, a contemporary beachside home in Dungeness, or nestled in the woods in Ashdown Forest; Bloom Stays is looking for the individual, the unique and the unforgettable.
If you’re an owner…
Our team is ready to support holiday homeowners all day, every day of the year. We offer owners a fully managed service or bookings only.
If you choose our home management service, we look after everything from bookings to barbecues, and organising cleaning to keys.
Alternatively, many owners prefer us to look after the bookings only, where we fill your house with guests throughout the year, but you get to manage the day-to-day.
Meet Rowena, Co-founder of Bloom Stays
“I’ve sourced and managed hundreds of different holiday let properties over the years ensuring each one has realised its full potential.
“Making a commercial success of your holiday let is my priority, and I love solving problems, getting involved and seeing the fruits of our work together. Alongside Nicky, my job is to make sure that as owners, your business is looked after.”
Meet Nicky, Co-founder of Bloom Stays
“’Happy guests, happy owners’ is my mantra, and I’m completely focused on making sure the houses we offer are the best they can be.
“Changing trends and lifestyles have moved holiday letting on over the past decade, and I’m dedicated to offering owners the best advice about how to keep up. It’s all part of our service to help support your businesses.”

Together, we are the Bloom Stays team who – together with Nicky and Rowena – help manage every aspect of holiday letting for our guests and owners.
Some of us are booking matchmakers, making our guests happy by finding the right house at the right time for a great holiday. Others are busy keeping our owners happy, managing every aspect of their houses. Whatever our role, we all visit as many houses as we can. We hold team meetings and even ‘work from a holiday home’ days to familiarise ourselves with every nook and cranny of our holiday lets. When we say we know our houses inside and out, we really mean it.
