Profit
Is an Airbnb in Pensarn Profitable?
Yes, when it's run well. The average Pensarn Airbnb took in £10,622 in the 12 months to August 2026, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about £650 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 £1,040 a month.
Cleaning it yourself keeps the £360 a year guests pay in cleaning fees, for about £680 a month. Handing the listing to a co-host at about 10% of nightly bookings still leaves about £570 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 Pensarn's Top Earners Get There
- More nights booked. The busiest quarter of Pensarn listings are booked on 51% or more of their nights, against 37% for the median listing. Ten more booked nights a year at the median rate of £100 adds about £1,020 in bookings.
- Prices that follow demand. Ranked by price, the top quarter charge £130 a night or more, against a median of £100. 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 £1,030 a year.
- Open for the busy months. In a typical year, August brings the average listing about £2,640, against £887 in November, so a calendar that is open and full in the busy months carries the year.
- Reviews that stand out. Pensarn listings average 4.75 stars, and 18% 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 £1,400 a month, against £890 for the average one.
