Introducing: Property by Polygon
Hi, I’m Rachel, and I am the founder of Property by Polygon, a short-term rental business that combines my passion for working with people and my natural interest in property. With my background as a physiotherapist and my experience in the property industry, I have created a business that provides stylish and comfortable short-term accommodation within the beautiful city of Canterbury, along with a personal touch to enhance our guest experience.

Investing in Property for Short-term Rentals
At Property by Polygon, our primary focus is investing in property – either to buy and own, or to rent – which we then renovate and refurbish to provide high-quality, short-term rentals. We work with letting agents and landlords to guarantee rent and no voids, while ensuring the property in maintained to the highest standards. All our guests complete a pre-check form and sign terms and conditions to ensure the property is well looked after during their stay.
Hospitality and Homely Accommodation
In addition to investing in property, Property by Polygon also provides comfortable and affordable self-catering accommodation as an alternative to a hotel room. Our properties are fully furnished with well-equipped kitchens, laundry facilities, high-speed internet, and all bed linen and towels are provided. Our goal is to create a home-from-home experience for all our guests, whether they are in Canterbury for business or leisure. Our business guests can benefit from a private space and a shared kitchen and living area with their colleagues.
Accommodation for All
There are many people who can benefit from our short-term rentals. Whether you are in between buying and selling your own home, relocating to Canterbury, or simply need a place to stay while renovations are being done, we have a solution for you. Our properties are all within walking distance of the city centre and local amenities, making us an ideal choice for theatre companies and other corporations. We work with estate agents to provide accommodation for those who need a place to stay while they settle into the area or need to break a property chain.
Supporting the Local Community
At Property by Polygon, we are passionate about sustainability and the local community. We are proud members of the More:Trees scheme and plant a tree for every booking we receive. We have also reduced our single-use plastics and provide our guests with a fabric tote bag to encourage them to shop sustainably. We love working with other local businesses, including cafes and restaurants who share our ethos of using locally sourced products, and who also offer our guests discounts.

I-PRAC Certified for Your Peace of Mind
We are an approved and certified member of I-PRAC certified (International Property Rental Approval Certification), providing 100% protection for all our guests and peace of mind for those who book with us. This certification is recognised by travellers and industry professionals worldwide and ensures our guests can book directly with us, confident in the knowledge that our listing is genuine and we are a legitimate and trustworthy operator.
Looking to the Future
I have loved my journey so far at Property by Polygon and am excited about what the future has in store. My communication with our guests is invaluable in learning how to enhance their experience and grow my business. I look forward to continuing to provide high-quality short-term rental accommodation in the beautiful city of Canterbury.
