Profit
Is an Airbnb in Kington Profitable?
Yes, when it's run well. The average Kington Airbnb took in £19,226 in the 12 months to May 2026, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about £1,190 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 £2,360 a month.
Cleaning it yourself keeps the £500 a year guests pay in cleaning fees, for about £1,240 a month. Handing the listing to a co-host at about 10% of nightly bookings still leaves about £1,040 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 Kington's Top Earners Get There
- More nights booked. The busiest quarter of Kington listings are booked on 55% or more of their nights, against 32% for the median listing. Ten more booked nights a year at the median rate of £120 adds about £1,210 in bookings.
- Prices that follow demand. Ranked by price, the top quarter charge £220 a night or more, against a median of £120. 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 £1,870 a year.
- Open for the busy months. July brought the average listing about £3,150, against £1,490 in November, so a calendar that is open and full in the busy months carries the year.
- Reviews that stand out. Kington listings average 4.90 stars, and 52% carry Airbnb's Guest Favorite badge, which guests can filter for.
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 £3,130 a month, against £1,600 for the average one.
