Airbnb ratings checked October 2026
Over summer 2026, Julie hosted guests in a private garden suite within her own home in Portobello. With its own garden entrance, an en suite shower room and a private patio, the suite gives guests space to come and go independently.
Hosting at home brings its own practical considerations, from clear guest information to privacy and the balance with family life. This first-hand experience informs Julie’s advice to owners considering a similar setup.
