Little Piggy Rentals Ltd. Reviews 24

I booked directly with Little Piggy Rentals and received a discount of my stay. Communication throughout was very prompt and professional. Any issues with booking were resolved swiftly. We received our check-in instructions the day before arrival and found the property in Gloucestershire to be spotless and incredibly spacious. It also had everything we needed in the well stocked kitchen. Would definitely stay there again and recommend Little Piggy Rentals.

The owner, Don, has a wealth of experience in running a tight ship in the property rental business. By leveraging his expertise in AI technology, he supports his team and partners to deliver consistently high standards of service to every guest. I have no hesitation in highly recommending Little Piggy Rentals.

Cozy and clean place, we found everything we needed there.
Customer service on point, host was always at the other end of the line ready to help.
The little desk in the first room and the speedy internet connection made my working from home a breeze.
Apart from some mould on the windows which the host was not aware of and they immediately solved that for us, we had no issues with the place.

As a family of 6, we loved our experience at Don’s house, very comfortable, good swimming pool, a lot of space for 6, very quiet and last but not less important, good host with quickly response and flexible check out.

I would recommend this place if you look for comfortable and quiet place. Is definitely in our wish list for upcoming holidays.

I've been working for Little Piggy for a long time now and I've seen the inside layer of it's runnings, and I approve. It's heart led by Don, who is skilled and ambitious in creating the systems needed for a beautiful, smooth operation, for guests to find a home they can relax in.

Amazing house, great facilities, perfect location. Host is attentive and well organised!

I would not recommend booking directly through Little Piggy Rentals.

Before booking, we actually contacted the company via WhatsApp and were told the “best available price” for two nights at one of their properties was £1,407.60. Yet when we checked on their own website, the exact same property and dates were listed for around £600 less, which is extremely odd. Naturally, we booked through their website instead, paying £808 in full, and received confirmation.
Later that same day, the company contacted us demanding an additional £250 cleaning fee, saying it was mandatory. This fee was noted nowhere on their website at the time of booking, nor was it shown in our confirmation. Their own Terms & Conditions even state that the cleaning fee “will be included in the total booking cost and communicated at the time of booking” — which they failed to do.
Only after our booking did they edit their website and add the cleaning fee information, which is now displayed clearly. At the time we booked, it simply wasn’t there.
When we challenged this, they refused to honour the booking at the confirmed price and instead cancelled and refunded us. Strangely, the very next day, the same property reappeared on Airbnb at £829 total (including Airbnb’s fees and cleaning) — almost exactly what we had originally paid! Why then did they demand £808 + £250 from us the day before? We would have happily paid the £21 difference.
Overall, this experience felt very misleading and extremely unprofessional. I would strongly recommend using Airbnb or another established platform instead of booking direct with Little piggy rentals as the pricing there is transparent and inclusive of all fees.

**ADDED after response**
Thank you for your reply, Don. However, I must correct several points you’ve made.
Transparency of Fees – Your own Terms & Conditions state:
“A base cleaning fee will be included in the total booking cost and communicated to you at the time of booking.”
This did not happen. The cleaning fee was not shown at checkout or on my confirmation. Only after my booking did you edit your website to show it clearly. At the time I booked, it was absent — which is the entire reason for this dispute.
Understanding of Cleaning Fees – I am not disputing the need for a professional clean. I fully expected this to be included in the total I paid, exactly as your Terms stated. Suggesting otherwise is unfair and misleading.
Refund – You frame my refund as a “goodwill gesture.” In reality, you could not enforce a retrospective charge that was not disclosed at the point of booking. Cancelling and refunding was the only option once you refused to honour the confirmed £808 price.
Delays in Communication – You said it “took some time to conclude our communications and the dates drew nearer.” In fact, it took you days to get back to me, despite knowing my booking was less than a week away and I urgently needed certainty. You even promised me a phone call to explain your mistake — I waited, but that call never came.
Pricing Oddities – Prior to booking, I was quoted £1,407.60 via WhatsApp for the same stay, then found it on your website for £808 (nearly £600 cheaper). After my booking was cancelled, the property appeared on Airbnb for £829 total including cleaning and Airbnb fees — almost exactly what I had already paid. If I had rebooked via Airbnb, you would have received even less after their fees, meaning it would have been more beneficial to honour my confirmed booking. A little embarrassing for you, frankly.
Professionalism & Guest Protections – You mention your good Airbnb reviews, but that is because guests on Airbnb are protected by their policies and benefit from transparent, all-inclusive pricing. My experience demonstrates that when booking direct, those safeguards vanish — and the process was misleading and unprofessional. That is exactly what I am warning others about.
My review is not about refusing to pay for cleaning, but about inconsistent pricing, retrospective charges, delays in communication, and a lack of professionalism. Prospective guests deserve to know this before choosing whether to book direct with you.

Put Simply, Little Piggy Rentals know their stuff and care about the customer experience.
I’ve seen a lot of properties as a guest/landlord/tenant but the ones managed by Little Piggy Rentals are head and shoulders above the rest.
All their properties are furnished and equipped to a consistently high standard; they rightly pride themselves on attention to detail to ensure that everything just works. There is a team that knows what it is talking about and is available when you need them to provide thoughtful, considerate, customer service; in a nutshell, they care!
Always a pleasure working with them!

As a professional in the property services industry, I feel compelled to share my recent experience with Little Piggy Rentals Ltd and its owner, Don Jeevy, to caution other traders and potential subcontractors.

Cons:
- Severe lack of punctuality and respect for scheduled appointments
- Poor communication and follow-through
- Disregard for other professionals' time and resources
- Potential for unfair negative reviews
- Questionable practices in verifying subcontractor work
- Unrealistic expectations for subcontractors
- Risk of adverse reviews or loss of work for subcontractors, even for issues beyond their control

Don Jeevy initially contacted me to arrange a meeting with his representative, Lyn, at a specific property. Upon arrival at the agreed time, no one was present. I called Lyn at 12:39, who said she'd return in 10 minutes. After waiting about 15 minutes, we left due to the unprofessional situation and costs incurred. Nearly an hour later (13:27), Lyn called again.

This unprofessional behaviour resulted in:
- Wasted wages for my staff
- Unnecessary fuel costs
- Lost potential earnings

We have documented evidence of our presence, including photographs, Google Maps timestamps, and GPS coordinates.

Little Piggy Rentals Ltd uses Uplisting for remote property management, expecting subcontractors to provide comprehensive services (laundry, ironing, bedding changes, cleaning). They rely heavily on photos taken by cleaners as proof of work. While this can protect cleaners by providing evidence of completed tasks, it also presents issues:

1. Inconsistent photo checking by staff
2. Added time pressure on cleaners
3. Potential for false accusations if photos are missed

Alarmingly, subcontractors risk negative reviews or losing work even for unintentional mistakes or issues beyond their control. This creates an unfair and pressurized working environment.

The company's readiness to leave negative reviews for traders, without considering their own reliability issues, is particularly concerning and unprofessional.

I strongly advise other traders and potential subcontractors to be extremely cautious when dealing with Little Piggy Rentals Ltd. Always document all communications, confirm appointments in writing, and be prepared for potential no-shows or last-minute changes. If you work with them, ensure you have robust time-tracking and photo-taking systems to protect yourself from potential disputes.

It may be wise to consider alternative partners who value punctuality, professional conduct, and fair treatment of their subcontractors and business associates.

Be aware that the guys at Little Piggy Rentals have no concern for end user. Their aim is to maximise profit for the property owners, excellent if you own a property (in the short term) but terrible for the customer. Proceed with caution.
