Profit
Is an Airbnb in Y Friog Profitable?
Yes, when it's run well. The average Y Friog Airbnb took in £13,788 in the 12 months to April 2026, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about £700 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 £1,270 a month.
Cleaning it yourself keeps the £2,000 a year guests pay in cleaning fees, for about £860 a month. Handing the listing to a co-host at about 10% of nightly bookings still leaves about £600 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 Y Friog's Top Earners Get There
- More nights booked. The busiest quarter of Y Friog listings are booked on 63% or more of their nights, against 41% for the median listing. Ten more booked nights a year at the median rate of £105 adds about £1,040 in bookings.
- Prices that follow demand. Ranked by price, the top quarter charge £210 a night or more, against a median of £105. 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 £1,180 a year.
- Open for the busy months. August brought the average listing about £2,310, against £1,130 in January, so a calendar that is open and full in the busy months carries the year.
- Reviews that stand out. Y Friog listings average 4.83 stars, and 33% 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 £2,080 a month, against £1,150 for the average one.
