Meet Josh & Megan
Hi, we are Josh and Megan, owners of Pass the Keys® Cumberland & South Lakeland! We have a true passion for all that this area has to offer. From the golden sandy beaches on Cumbria’s West Coast to England’s tallest Mountain (Scafell Pike) and England’s deepest Lake (Wast Water). With so much to see and do it’s no wonder tourists flock here to visit year after year, whether it’s to go wild swimming in one of the many lakes, to hike the stunning mountains and fells or to simply relax and relish in the delicious eateries whilst absorbing the wildlife and breath-taking views - the tourism market here is booming and is ever increasing! Having a B&B set within our farmhouse in Copeland with Superhost status on Airbnb means we know exactly what is required to make a successful short-let property and deliver a 5* experience to hosts and guests.

What is a professional Airbnb co-host?
Due to the size of our property portfolio and the consistent quality of our service, Pass the Keys® was invited to become an official Airbnb co-host in 2018. This exclusive status provided Pass the Keys with a key account manager and direct integration with their systems so that we could dynamically update pricing, report on guest behavior and other key metrics. We have retained our advantages as a valued partner even though Airbnb has now withdrawn the program (2022).
