Garri, The price list is available from the booking page, which navigates to here . Your other comments are duly noted and will be sorted asap, i've been on the phone enough about the price list the last few days! Regarding the "May 2007" issue, perhaps if all dates in the past are set to ...

Oh no! I've just had a look at the Booking page and have to say it's a mess but easily rectified. Where to start? First, the pricing info should be laid out in tabular form, easy to read. People scan websites, they don't read them. The whole procedure needs to be designed carefully as it's far from...

Welcome to the forum.

Firstly, wow, what a stunning location. Your chalet looks lovely.

My only gripe is the black background like enid says, its quite offputting to be faced with that on arrival to the site.

Other than that, no major problems that I can see :)

Thanks for the criticism everyone. I was aware the photos werent the best- these were taken last minute in a rush, and some better ones will be taken in a couple of weeks. The ones on the website at the moment were all taken in winter as well. Further photos will also be added of the exterior. Does ...

Hi Ruth, Thanks for your feedback. The photos are indeed a little dark, though I am on a laptop so the colours maybe different. Thanks for pointing that out though. The booking form will give an error if either the date you select clashes with another, or you just select the number of weeks and no s...

Hi, this is finally getting off the ground! We've got our first 2 bookings for august, charging about 40% less than our competition. This is because the house isn't in a condition to warrant a full price, and they are friends of family. We have also had a booking form & contract drawn up. If som...

Hi, Option 4 looks preferable, though we would need to change to combination on a regular basis. There is a passage next to the house the box could be situated. Is it frowned upon to not meet and greet the tenants? We have a cleaner arranged who lives opposite the property, so leaving the keys with ...

Thanks everyone! Hi Reta are you planning long term rental or short lets? The two are very different. Short lets of up to a week or so is what i'm looking at. No 6 month lets or anything like that. I will have to start work on a contract. One worry I do have is getting the keys to the tenants. What ...

Holiday let in Cornwall

Hi, I am looking to rent a second home in Cornwall as a holiday let. I need to make a business plan to propose to the bank for a buy-to-let mortgage. I want to do small lets, the house sleeps 4/5, and also need to formulate a contract. Does anyone know where I can find templates of such documents, o...
