Join our West Wight Cottages portfolio
Focusing on West Wight (villages of Brighstone, Shorwell, Yarmouth, Freshwater, Totland & surrounding countryside) we have a select portfolio of quality, character Isle of Wight holiday homes.
We’re seeing a UK staycation boom and holiday cottages where guests can meet up with family are likely to be in great demand this year and next. We are always on the look out for properties with the “wow” factor and are doing so even during the Coronavirus pandemic. We specialise in helping new start-ups and will work with you to get the best out of your Isle of Wight holiday home so please contact us to see what we can do for you. We are looking to add a 2 or 3 bedroom Isle of Wight holiday cottage in the Freshwater Bay area and to add accessible Isle of Wight holiday cottages to our portfolio. But as long as you have a gorgeous property in West Wight then do get in touch.
We take care of all the marketing, bookings and reviews for your Isle of Wight holiday home and work with a number of online partners (targeted to your specific Isle of Wight holiday cottage) so your property features high on search engines and feedback captured from your guests – see our track record of capturing high quality feedback. We will do our best to optimise the letting potential of your Isle of Wight holiday cottage. We take a competitive commission charge from each customer booking as a contribution to the cost of hosting your Isle of Wight holiday home on our partner websites, managing your bookings and arranging ferries for your guests. We don’t charge a registration fee and we are not VAT registered.
Isle of Wight holiday cottage bookings
We manage bookings on your behalf. This starts with responding to enquiries 24/7, taking & notifying you of bookings, collecting payment (deposit & balance payments), booking ferries at discounted rates, providing guests with information about your Isle of Wight holiday cottage / directions etc., providing you with a monthly account statement and prompt payment following each guests’ arrival. With a small portfolio and local Island knowledge we can provide a personal response and we see most enquiries translate into bookings.
