Why direct?

Four reasons to skip the middleman.

💰
Save ~15% every time
Airbnb charges guests a 12–15% service fee on top of the nightly rate. Book direct and that money stays in your pocket — on a $1,000 stay, that's $120–150 back.
📞
Talk to the owners
You're booking directly with Clifton and the LCF team — not a support queue. If anything comes up before or during your stay, you reach us directly.
🎟
Promo codes work here
Discount codes — including friends & family rates — only apply to direct bookings. Enter your code at checkout and it applies automatically.
🔒
Just as secure
Direct bookings process through Stripe — the same payment infrastructure used by millions of businesses worldwide. Your card details are never stored on our servers.
How it works

Three steps to booking direct.

01
Enter your dates
Use the search above to pick your dates and guest count. We'll check real-time availability across all 26 properties.
02
Pick your flat
Browse properties that are open for your dates with live pricing. No hidden fees — the price you see is what you pay us.
03
Secure checkout
Complete your booking via Stripe. You'll get an instant confirmation email with check-in instructions — no waiting, no back-and-forth.
Have a promo code?
Enter it at checkout in the booking form above — it applies automatically. Direct booking is the only way to use discount codes; they don't work on Airbnb or VRBO.
