As they don't have any furniture, what about digs? Or could they make 
some kind of long-term deal with a B&B?

Hotels/digs/B&B looking better all the time...

That's correct. Maybe they need to take out a 6 month rental, and eat 
the extra 3 months. How sure are they that really don't need it after 
end of Jan?

ps Have they tried corporate flat rentals like:

Or what about a holiday let? Hoseasons etc. Or do such lets have a 
*maximum* period?
