    Bide Club — Free To Join

    Airbnb Takes 15% From Every Booking.
    We'd Rather Give It To You.

    Bide Club is free. Takes 60 seconds to join. And gets you perks, rates, and access the booking sites will never offer — because they can't afford to.

    Member rates up to 30% off
    £35 off first direct booking
    Free early check-in & late checkout
    No platform fees. Pets stay free.

    Why Bide Club Exists

    You booked through Airbnb or Booking.com. Fine. We get it. They're everywhere.

    But here's what they don't tell you. Every time you book through them, you pay their fee. We pay their commission. And neither of us gets anything back from it.

    Bide Club fixes that. Join free, book direct next time, and everything that used to go to the platform comes back to you instead.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    Everything you need to know about Bide Club and the giveaway.

    Why We Built This

    We built three hotels from scratch. We're not handing 15% to a platform forever.

    David and Samantha
    "

    David and Samantha built Bide the hard way. No corporate backing. No hotel chain behind them. Three buildings, three towns, a lot of graft.

    The booking platforms have their place. We used them to get started. But every booking through Airbnb or Booking.com costs us between 12 and 18%. That's money that could go back to you.

    Bide Club is how we do that. You book direct. We give you better rates, real perks, and a relationship that no platform can replicate. And we build something that lasts.

    That's the deal.
