Profit
Is an Airbnb in Carnon Downs Profitable?
Yes, when it's run well. The average Carnon Downs Airbnb took in £14,904 in the 12 months to February 2026, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about £910 a month of that is left after running costs, so a home that costs less than that to own or rent makes money. A listing in the top quarter leaves about £1,520 a month.
These amounts come before housing costs. Where the mortgage or rent is less each month, the difference is profit; a home owned outright keeps it all after property tax, home insurance and any building or condo fees.

How Carnon Downs's Top Earners Get There
- More nights booked. The busiest quarter of Carnon Downs listings are booked on 52% or more of their nights, against 35% for the median listing. Ten more booked nights a year at the median rate of £180 adds about £1,800 in bookings.
- Prices that follow demand. Ranked by price, the top quarter charge £265 a night or more, against a median of £180. That is a separate ranking from the busiest quarter, so the two marks don't multiply into one listing's takings. For the average listing, a 10% higher rate on the nights it already books adds about £1,490 a year.
- Open for the busy months. August brought the average listing about £3,520, against £981 in January, so a calendar that is open and full in the busy months carries the year.
What a listing keeps comes down to the figures this page measures: nightly rate, nights booked and the months it's open. A listing at the top-quarter mark takes in about £2,060 a month, against £1,240 for the average one.
