Before trawling through all the fabulous info below, ask yourself...

Do I need a holiday home showcase?

The easiest way to decide is to take an honest, open-minded look at your existing online advertising (the design, functionality and whether you can be found on Google) and think about how potential guests would view it:

• Are you showing good quality photos of each room and the best features?
• Are the details given providing enough information or do you keep getting asked the same questions?
• Does the property as a whole look appealing?
• Would you pay to stay there based on what you see?

If you're happy with it, well done, but if you feel it's lacking in certain areas, take a look at our Showcase Example to see how it compares and then go through the checklist below:

Is the answer 'yes' to any of the statements below?

• I need an online presence; or
• My property details are badly presented and hard to understand
• My photos are old, blurred, stretched or too dark to see
• Important details are missing
• Some of my information is out of date
• My page or website is unattractive to potential guests
• My page or website doesn't work properly
• It's impossible to find my property on Google or Yahoo
• It's not clear whether the property is available or not

To potential guests, the quality of your online presence represents the quality of your holiday let and if you answered 'yes' to any of the points above, you are probably losing bookings because of it.

Make your self catering attractive to viewers to increase bookings throughout the year

For just £99.95 with no annual renewal fees, we can design an independent 'holiday home showcase' for your self catering apartment, holiday cottage or holiday home which features clear information on your property and the surrounding areas, displays good quality photos, and promotes the best features of your property to make it attractive to all.

As specialists in website optimisation, we can also increase your ratings with the search engines which allows you to target specific audiences based on your property, its location or its unique selling point and means that more of the 'right kind of people' will find your property and ultimately make a booking.

For example, if you own a cottage in an area of outstanding natural beauty surrounded by walks from the front door, you really want walkers and nature lovers to find you online. This doesn't mean that everyone else is excluded and your property will still be visible to all, but by optimising your property showcase, we can appeal to your target audience and your holiday property becomes more visible overall.

Additional examples are holiday rentals based around attractions such as Ascot, Silverstone, Alton Towers etc and you can change your showcase to reflect upcoming events near to you.

Flexible for your needs

Our showcases fit around the client and not the other way around so if you want different colours or a slight variation, we are happy to make the changes. We allow you more freedom to include the details that you want rather than having to stick to a template where you are resticted with what you say. As designers, we may advise against certain things but as professionals, we can tell you what works and what doesn't to ensure that your showcase promotes your property in the best possible way.

Why Use Us?

We have been web designing for over 12 years and understand how websites work and what people want to see.

A bad online presence or no presence at all simply means that you are losing potential bookings every week.
