Getting out of ED when the Olympics are on? Want to rent out your place and make some extra cash?

[AussieChick]

My parents are coming over from Australia for the Olympics and are looking for some self contained accommodation in London from Monday the 16th of July until Sunday the 5th of August 2012. They are willing to pay a fair price, nothing too extortionate.

If you're not interested, maybe you know someone who might be interested in renting out their place? Somewhere nice in Zone 1 or Zone 2 would be ideal.

Any suggestions on where to find some nice self contained accommodation that doesn't cost an arm and a leg would also be most appreciated.

Many thanks!
