Camp in London

With only five months to go until the London Olympics, you need to think about sorting out your accommodation if you managed to get tickets but don't live in London.

Hotel prices have shot up in the city during the Olympics and availability is almost non-existent at this stage, so short term property rentals in London are proving very popular - and there are plenty of Londoners who want to cash in. But there are other, cheaper options, ranging from camping to swapping homes or just renting a room.
