The process
We learn about your property, your goals, and what is holding your listing back. No charge, no obligation.
A clear scope, fixed fee, and timeline — exactly what we will do and when you will have it.
We produce everything — copy, identity, collateral — and deliver it print-ready and live-ready.
Seasonal updates, new collateral, or a second property. We are here when you need us.
"A beautifully presented property typically commands £20–40 more per night. At 200 nights per year that is £4,000–8,000 additional annual income — from design alone."

About the studio
Render & Revenue is not a management company, not a photography service, and not a one-size template operation. We are a boutique design and revenue studio that treats every property as the asset it truly is.
Rooted in Bath, built from genuine lettings expertise and professional design practice — we bring two disciplines together that are rarely found in the same room. We understand both what makes a property beautiful and what makes it commercially exceptional.
"Bath's short-let market is one of the UK's most resilient. The gap between an average listing and an exceptional one is almost never the property — it is the presentation."
The team
Bath lettings & revenue
Professional background in lettings valuation and business development in Bath. Understands the short-let market, B&NES planning rules, and what actually drives income — providing the commercial strategy and local expertise behind every project.
Design & creative direction
Leads all visual output — interior concepts, brand identity, welcome packs, area guides, and all printed and digital collateral. The creative eye that makes every piece unmistakable and worth keeping.
We know Bath intimately — the visitor patterns, the planning nuances, the streets guests walk, and the venues they return to. That specificity is irreplaceable.
Every engagement is priced clearly before work begins. No scope creep, no hidden extras. You know exactly what you are paying and precisely what you receive.
We measure success in booking rates and nightly rates — not in aesthetics alone. Every piece we produce is designed to convert and to command a premium.

Planning & compliance
Most design studios know nothing about Bath & North East Somerset planning policy. We do — and it changes everything we recommend.
Running a short-let in Bath can trigger planning implications under B&NES policy. When a property is let for significant periods, it may cross the threshold for a material change of use — potentially requiring planning permission for C5 (short-term let) use. We understand these thresholds and build strategies that keep every property within permitted use, protecting owners from enforcement risk while maximising income.
The Valuation Office Agency 70-night availability threshold is one of the most misunderstood and most valuable rules in short-let management. Crossing it correctly — by making a property available for short-let for at least 70 nights per year — reclassifies it for business rates rather than council tax. When combined with Small Business Rate Relief, this can eliminate the rates liability entirely, saving owners hundreds or thousands of pounds annually from a single administrative decision.
Bath's visitor economy has a clear seasonal shape — high summer demand, Roman Baths tourists in autumn, Christmas market visitors in winter — but also significant troughs. A hybrid short-let/long-let calendar approach lets owners capture peak short-let premiums during high-demand windows, then switch to longer tenancies in quieter periods. This approach manages planning thresholds naturally while maximising annual yield and keeping the property performing across every season.
