Post card
Post card
Idea.
Get postcards made up with picture of your accommodation.
Leave a few at your place with a note for your guests to feel free to use them to send home to their friends & family.
Could go further and put stamp on it as well.
Make sure you leave instructions to where the nearest post box is along with all your other tips.
Win Win?

I didn't think of that RR - "don't book this place, it's a dump" wouldn't be ideal PR!
Hullo Colin and welcome to the forum. We do use postcards although mine came back from the printers with a rather yukky mustard background instead of the cheery yellow that I was expecting.
Lots of references on LMH to postcards but here is the most recent thread on the subject:

Mmm, see what you mean - helps spare others from a disappointing holiday, certainly!
The mustard colour - we..ell I sort-of blamed myself as it didn't look like a true sunflower yellow on Vistaprint's website and I'd just hoped it would turn out better in reality. It was slightly worse in fact.

I make our own postcards on our printer. Some are of the properties and others of the village (there aren´t any for sale here). All have our details on the back. The ones of our properties are free - we charge a euro for the others which covers costs. Seem to be quite popular
I´m having problems finding heavy enough card though (preferably at least 300 gr). I bought a stash last year in an art shop in the UK, but haven´t been able to get hold of more. I´ve printed some arty ones of landscapes on water colour paper, but the regular stuff is running low. Any suggestions anyone??

I got mine printed by another Hatter. I've passed her details on to a lot of people, including my niece who wants some printed for her jewellery business. Really good value and quality. We used to do a greeting card to welcome our guests,which hubby made himself at home, but the postcard is just fine.
