Too many of our communities are being transformed into tourist ghettoes, with accommodation & jobs for locals suffering - and yet you'd like to host? Koldrun could be your answer. If you have an active cultural interest and would like to host visitors with artistic, musical, and other creative interests that help keep our communities alive then we welcome you to our site. Feel free to register and build your listing. We do not support 'absentee hosting'.

Koldrun is a place for connection and creativity. It’s encoded into our essence – our DNA.­­

Koldrun enables people with an interest in the creative and performing arts to host guests with similar interests wanting travel accommodation.

Teachers are welcome too, as we believe that for many of us, the spark of inspiration, discovery and creativity is first experienced by the work of these amazing people.

Koldrun connects photographers with photographers, artists with artists, musicians with other crazy people. Heck! Potters with writers, tattooists with drone pilots – imagine what could happen!

Some of our hosts may offer sharing of equipment, instruments, computer media & programs, help with translation, transport, etc. Check each listing for details.

Don’t feel that you necessarily should share time together, you may not wish to, but perhaps you recognise that, in booking through koldrun, you are helping to maintain the incomes of folk that want to keep the arts and performance alive (…and funded). A mutually supportive network!

Course provider, with a proven record of satisfied students?

Course providers, like accommodation hosts, can list their offerings in the classified directory, and provide the media necessary to explain and promote courses.

Course listings, like accommodation listings, can be updated anytime via your host/course-provider profile page.

Course listing is free and easy and targeted within your demographic; you will only pay when a booking is made. Register here.

The Climate.

We want and need to journey, to create & to be expressive and creative.

We cannot forcibly adapt our nature, but we can adapt our behaviour.

Koldrun is a resource to help generate connections, maintain interests and incomes in the community of artistic, creative, and performing people, but it is also about resource-sharing.

We take a conscious approach to the care of our planet. Please consider using your koldrun income to adopt green solutions to your accommodation energy supplies and cleaning products, etc and for guests to consider green travel options where possible.

Another possible implementation for some is to install an Electric Vehicle Charging Point to use for your own vehicle, your visitor’s vehicle and possibly the local community too. These charging points can be metred and a charge made to another person using them so that you can recover the costs. Planning permission may be necessary.

There may be a double advantage to investing your koldrun generated income in green energy and product solutions for your rental, besides helping to save the planet, you may well be able to consider it a business expense and can therefore discount it against your taxable income – ask your adviser.

Use the ‘Useful Links’ menu to access products and services that provide for the conversion to green energy and products, as well as other vital products such as equipment & supplies, travel & gear insurance, etc.

Social Media

Koldrun has a Facebook group page where you can discuss and showcase your work. I really hope to see some exciting collaborations between the disciplines, where musicians stay with enamellists, comedians with sculptors, etc

The Facebook page offers the opportunity for you to freely host mentorships too, in the spirit of encouragement to younger or less experienced folk interested in developing their range of skills.

Koldrun is novel, new, nascent, neoteric, in other words, at present, sparsely populated. So, please feel free to register, tell your friends; help us to create a buzz!
