Stay clear of this accommodation. It is a health hazard, dirty, smelly very dusty, spider infested snd hugely overpriced. The sanitary ware is a disgrace. When we complained to the owner she c... See more

Fantastic site - in a league of its own

So impressed with QA. A brilliant site for finding just what you need in terms of really good quality accommodation with a difference. Everything is well researched and up-to-date, and they're great to deal with too. Highly recommended.

Highly recommended

Every property is different, but all the ones we have used have been good, and I would feel safe using this website to find a holiday. Our most recent stay was in a remarkably old property, loads of history. Medieval! The Welsh Gatehouse, a castle for just 2 people, it was amazing, though you had to be able to handle the stone spiral staircase (we were warned!)

Fantastic Website!

A really interesting collection of properties and Jess is very helpful - would recommend speaking to her direct to find out what you are looking for if the shortlist appears too daunting!

Art Deco

We have been with Quirky since Easter this year and are more than satisfied with the results. We have had numerous enquiries, many of which resulted in firm bookings, in fact we estimate that 75% of our business this year has come from the site, the rest from our own website. I can throughly recommend Quirky, we will certainly register again next year.

Fantastic platform through which to find and list unusual properties for leisure breaks

After considering other options, we choose Quirky Accommodation through which to promote our treehouse accommodation and we couldn't be happier. It's provided us with plenty of enquiries and bookings and the company are quick to respond to any queries or requests.

If we add another property to our portfolio I wouldn't hesitate to list it with Quirkyaccom.

Great to work with an excellent service

As a new glamping site (just completed our second summer season) the expertise and service provided have really helped us build our business. Helpful, knowledgeable and friendly. I have no hesitation in recommending QuirkyAccom to site owners looking to market themselves as different and interesting.

Geat experience - efficient and helpful

We've just completed our month's free trial and it was brilliant experience. We only completed the Shepherd's Hut this May and have been thrilled with the response we got via Quirky. Jess has been very helpful every step of the way so we had no hesitation in continuing to advertise with her.

Great service

Getting on the Internet to start the annual trawl for the perfect getaway, I felt jaded before I started. I entered 'unusual dog friendly holiday cottages' as my search term and discovered quirkyaccomm!
We know exactly what we are looking for but can't filter out all the properties that don't fit the bill, so I Emailed Jess. I described what we wanted and not long after she responded with a short shortlist. We are now making enquiries with owners and I feel like I've received very personal service, thank you. Karen A

Some Lovely Imaginative and Romantic guests have come our way...

We've had a great time working with QuirkyAccom.com they are a really nice company run by Jess with a careful and efficient eye for the interesting detail in the places she choose for her collection of unusual accommodation.

At Dolphin Cottage we've had an array of really nice people appearing over the horizon - painters, poets, honeymooners and a few single people coming to meditate in stormy weather! It's a site that seems to attract interesting people and it's lovely our cottage is being found by them. Thank you Jess!

Website with a difference

It's great to see a website with a difference. I love travelling and nearly always look to stay somewhere a little bit different, for me, it makes such a huge difference staying somewhere a bit quirky, that I'll hopefully hold in my memory bank for a long time.
The variety of places to stay on this website is good and I always find Jess' approach and knowledge refreshing and honest.

Quirky cares

We signed up with quirky accommodation a couple of years ago on a whim as we liked the types of accomodation listed already all being ... Quirky !!! From the onset no matter what time you emailed the host a reply came flying back with either advice or a solution to your question. Quirky never stop promoting their site and always rank high on google so your accomodation has a fighting chance to gain bookings in this very tough industry. Jess needs a big pat on the back for all her hard work as out of all the sites we chose to represent our business the most enquiries and bookings we receive are from quirky. Well done and thanks for being a big part of our success !!!

Book with caution

I booked Belle Tout lighthouse through this website a couple of years ago and had a wonderful time there so I didn't hesitate to book Kairos Yacht for our anniversary this year. I paid in full in May 2015 for a trip in May 2016. I contacted the owner last week to let him know our train arrival times. I had no response so I phoned him today only to be told that he sold the property back in October 2015 and will refund me when he can afford it, but he has no idea when that will be. I contacted Jess, and, in fairness her reply was quick and polite, but it basically said, there's nothing she can do. If you notice, most of these reviews have been written by business owners and not holiday makers. I think I'd be happy if people were paying me £200 a night for accommodation that doesn't exist with absolutely nothing to make me have to pay it back! The moral is, when it's good, it's good & when it's bad, it's very bad! And make sure you pay by credit card so you have some chance of getting your money back.

Reply from Quirkyaccom

I'm so sorry Nicola that this has happened. I feel terrible about the fact the Kairos was listed on our site and now been sold leaving disappointed clients in its wake. The boat was extremely popular and getting rave reviews for over a year before we removed the listing due to the owner not making a renewal payment. After that we started to hear reports back of cancelled bookings and that the boat had been sold.
We had no way of knowing that this would happen and can not take responsibility as QuirkyAccom.com is a directory of unusual accommodation only - not a booking service. Much like a newspaper's advertising section or Google. We play no part in the booking, don't take commission and don't know who has booked/paid when or how. Any booking is made through a booking agent or with the owner direct - not with QuirkyAccom.com.
We do recommend that people pay by a secure method in case of this sort of situation. But have had no other negative experience with thousands of properties we have worked with since we started out 5 years ago. We are sincerely sorry for the stress this situation has caused you and hope that a refund has been forthcoming.

SUPERB

We decided to advertise with Quirky accommodation as the name fitted our new unique glamping unit ( The Eye Pod ) to a T.
Since joining we have received endless enquires and bookings . The website is easy to use and always great communication re service . The ability to amend our advert and update our availability calender is also a huge plus. Excellent. alround.

Sent an email giving a weeks notice for a holiday, didn't expect to get much help, but they came up trumps and were extremely helpful. Am now thinking about half term - the choice is amazing!
