Hi, I’m Chris, the person behind Guild Stays. I started hosting because I enjoy creating calm, welcoming spaces where people can truly relax. I take pride in offering an experience that feels comfortable and straightforward for every guest, whether they are here for work, travel, or a short break. I’m naturally friendly and easy going, and I really value good communication. I like to make sure guests feel looked after but also have their own privacy to settle in and unwind. Cleanliness, reliability, and attention to detail are very important to me, and I make sure everything in the house runs smoothly for a stress free stay. Outside of hosting, I enjoy dancing, singing, and taking part in improv comedy, and I occasionally do stand up too. I love bringing creativity and warmth into everyday life, and I think that influences how I approach hosting and design the spaces I look after. I also have a friendly black Labrador called Bailey, who absolutely loves meeting people. She has a soft spot for tennis balls and never turns down a treat or a cuddle. I’m available through messages if guests need anything or want local recommendations for food, walks, or things to do. I like to keep communication easy and straightforward so everyone feels comfortable and supported during their stay.
