How Much Do Airbnb Hosts Make in Wealden?
Gross bookings per Wealden listing averaged £28,397 over the 12 months to October 2026 (England average: £21,011), before cleaning, platform and management costs and taxes.
In a typical year, the average Wealden listing brings in £4,380 in August, its best month, and £2,170 in February, its slowest. January runs within 1% of February, so either can be the slowest in a given year. The three strongest months bring in 33% of a full year's revenue, where an even calendar would give any three months 25%.
In a typical month, a top-quarter listing earns at least 3.5 times as much as a bottom-quarter one.
- Best-in-class properties (top 10%) earn £6,060+ a month, about three times the typical property.
- Strong performers (top 25%) earn £3,490 or more, roughly £1,500 a month above the median.
- Typical properties (median) earn about £2,040 a month.
- Entry-level properties (bottom 25%) earn £994 or less, about half of the median.
These are monthly figures for listings active in each month. The annual average above also counts listings that operated for only part of the year, so it runs below twelve times these figures.

Profit
Is an Airbnb in Wealden Profitable?
Yes, when it's run well. The average Wealden Airbnb took in £28,397 in the 12 months to October 2026, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about £1,590 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 £2,740 a month.
Cleaning it yourself keeps the £1,870 a year guests pay in cleaning fees, for about £1,750 a month. Handing the listing to a co-host at about 10% of nightly bookings still leaves about £1,370 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 Wealden's Top Earners Get There
- More nights booked. The busiest quarter of Wealden listings are booked on 65% or more of their nights, against 44% for the median listing. Ten more booked nights a year at the median rate of £145 adds about £1,460 in bookings.
- Prices that follow demand. Ranked by price, the top quarter charge £220 a night or more, against a median of £145. 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 £2,650 a year.
- Open for the busy months. In a typical year, August brings the average listing about £4,380, against £2,170 in February, so a calendar that is open and full in the busy months carries the year.
- Reviews that stand out. Wealden listings average 4.89 stars, and 65% 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 £4,040 a month, against £2,370 for the average one.
