Oh, doesn't look like it's been published. May be worth checking all the settings and spellings.
Has it been working Before ?

Only quick for now as its changeover time, 3.30 deadline. 😱

Obviously just my opinion, everyone is different.

I love the clean, simple lines and images. I like to be able to find things easily without searching too hard. I think the site does that.

I will have a look properly later. My only comment from a first quick look....
I like the font or size of font on the lounge page. The others seem larger and almost like they are shouting at you. The one on the lounge page seems softer. I prefer it, IMHO.

Back to the hoovering before someone notices I'm not there! 😉

Quick thoughts:

Nice looking, quick loading, easy to navigate website.
Cottage looks lovely - good photos.
Maybe include some info about Colerne on Home page... I'd never heard of it. Most guests are not looking for your cottage online, but looking for somewhere to stay near Bath as their first search.
Add a map on the Directions page?
A bit of background about why you love the location / cottage really sells.

Just noticed your strapline on this forum... something like that would be good on the website.

Attractive website. I've looked at it on a phone so apologies if there is something I have missed.
From a guests point of view, to be able to see all your prices immediately would help. People scour many websites when booking a holiday to an extent they can feel overwhelmed. I understand you are wanting to encourage contact but it may be your property is not the right price range for some people, and they would prefer to discover that quickly than wait for a response. Maybe it's just me, but if I decide to book a holiday, I want to get on with it and am too busy to keep returning to the task.

Another minor point, if you can change your log burner photo for one with the log burner lit with flames roaring it will help attract bookings outside of the warmer months
Hope this helps.

Thank you for your feedback - I agree with you regarding price per night and having a photo with the log burner lit.

I will update the website.

I may have missed it but I couldn't see anywhere about where I would pak my car.
Can I bring a dog?

You might also want to look into online booking - but then again I am biased!
