Turn Your North East Property Into A High-Performing Short-Let
From city apartments to coastal homes, we help North East landlords turn well-located properties into high-performing short-lets, with pricing and marketing set for each local market.
What Is Airbnb & Short-Let Management in the North East?
Airbnb and short-let management is a fully outsourced service where a specialist team runs your property as a short-term rental on your behalf. Across the North East, that means city apartments, family houses and coastal homes being let to visitors, work guests and holidaymakers instead of a single long-term tenant.
We handle listing creation, photography, dynamic pricing built around local demand, guest messaging, check-ins, cleaning, linen, maintenance and compliance - so you receive one straightforward monthly payout with none of the day-to-day work or late-night guest calls.
At MCPI Hosting, we manage properties for landlords across the UK, including here in the North East - treating every home like a boutique hospitality asset, not just another rental.

Why the North East?
The North East is not one market. Newcastle and Durham draw city-break, event and university visitors. Teesside is led by healthcare, industry and contractors. Sunderland, Gateshead and the coast mix work stays with leisure. The right pricing and marketing depends on which of these your property sits in, so we treat each area on its own terms. Our registered office is in Scorton, North Yorkshire, a short drive from Darlington and the Tees Valley.
How North East Markets Differ
- Newcastle upon Tyne: city breaks, big events and two universities.
- Gateshead: Quayside culture, Team Valley business and the MetroCentre, just across the river from Newcastle.
- Sunderland: automotive manufacturing and its supply chain, the university and the seafront at Roker and Seaburn.
- Durham: cathedral city, university and heritage visitors.
- Darlington: rail links and business travel on the East Coast Main Line.
- Middlesbrough: hospital, university and Teesside industry.
- Stockton-on-Tees: Yarm, the riverside and a central Teesside location.
- Hartlepool: marina, maritime heritage and coastal stays.
Councils Across the North East
The region is covered by a number of different councils, including Newcastle, Gateshead, Sunderland, Durham, Darlington, Middlesbrough, Stockton-on-Tees, Hartlepool, and Redcar and Cleveland. Each sets its own council tax policies, including whether it charges a second homes premium, so what applies in one town may not apply in the next.
