Love the photos!
but....
sorry if I come across as hyper-critical, but that woman in the 3rd photo on the second line is scary! The photo doesn't fit in with all the others!
As it is a photo of a TV screen, couldn't you just cut and paste in a nice serene photo of one of the lakes? (PM me if you don't know how and I'll do it for you).

Why's it scary?
That woman is Felicity Kendal. Perhaps I'm trying to be too clever with the 'Kendal' bit there but I'd never thought it was scary... I just thought the TV might look better with something on, than blank, and that's what happened to be on at the time of taking the pics...

d'oh!!!!
Yes. I did think it might be Felicity - but the "Kendal" part went right over my head!
What I'm trying to say is that you have these lovely photos all in tasteful shades, apart from one with a lady wearing a bright red top looking angrily back at you!!!!
As it's your first glimpse of all the photos, your eye is immediately drawn to her...

You are probably right... another scene would probably work much better. Maybe a nature documentary with an otter in it... we're meant to have them in the river here but I've not yet spotted one, but perhaps it would conjur up a better impression.

It's not what you know, it's who you know. I have quite a lot of contacts (from the day job) and tried emailing a load with details of what I was up to... and, well... I got lucky.
I wasn't sure whether to link to the main article so prominently as obviously that lists lots of other properties, too, and I didn't want people disappearing off...
Working on that image and will be putting up a new one soon...

I think that does look a lot better... thanks.

I can see what you mean, but hopefully you can also understand my point of view...? I'm just not sure which is the better option to take.

I agree. Your property is halfway down the list and that gives too many options for people to get sidetracked. Could you refer to it without the link, or is that just too last century?kendalcottages wrote:

If you always do what you've always done then you'll always get what you've always got.

I refer to it without the link on the homepage of my site at the moment. It just says "as featured in The Guardian".
