Everything your house needs.
Nothing it doesn't.
Lope & Lark replaces the WhatsApp groups, spreadsheets, and endless “is the house free?” messages with one private, organised space.
Shared calendar
Everyone invited to the house sees the same calendar — who's staying when, what dates are free, and what's been requested. Colour-coded by status. Seasonal modes let you open-book in winter and require approval in summer. Export to Google Calendar or iCal.
Date requests & stays
Family and friends pick their dates. You approve — or set up auto-approval for the people you trust most. Costs are calculated automatically based on who's staying and when. Deposits and balances are tracked from request to completion.
Fair costs, no platform cut
Set different rates for different people — family, friends, custom groups. Seasonal pricing adjusts automatically. They pay you directly by bank transfer, Revolut, or however you normally do it. We track who owes what. We never touch the money. No transaction fees, ever.

House guide
WiFi password, how the boiler works, where to find the spare keys, where to eat nearby. Update it once — everyone sees the latest version. Better than a printed folder that's always out of date.
Read the guideShared to-do list
Leaky tap? Low on firewood? Need to arrange cleaning before the next stay? Create tasks, assign them, set priority. Everyone with access can pitch in.
Notifications that matter
Know when someone requests dates, when a payment is marked, or when a to-do needs attention. Quiet by design — no spam, no marketing, just the updates that keep your house running smoothly.
Private by design
Your house isn't a product listing. There's no public page, no search results, no SEO exposure. Only the people you personally invite can see your place. Remove anyone at any time. Your house, your rules.
