Fraise,
Joan and I live on-site and personally do all the work involved on hand-over days. We also do all the laundry, gardening and looking after the pool. Anything I say here is a product of that situation.
A wipe down with a damp cloth is all that is needed for the recliner mattresses. If you don't put it on the cleaner's list of tasks then it will not be done.
Regards
Alan

No,that's why I'm reluctant to provide them! This year I've done all the inside stuff but next season I am handing it over to someone else! I already spend 6 hours cleaning the one house(just 3 bedrooms)and I expect her to do the same.I can't give her any more jobs! I think that no cushions are better than oily/grubby cushions.The house is immaculate-like yours and lots of others no doubt but grubby cushions will let it down!

Fraise - I found some towels that are the size of sun loungers - they have a flap at the top to pop over the top of the sun bed...I leave these with the beach towels and ask all my guests to pop them through the washer for the next guests...it's the only thing that I can 100% rely on will be done each week...nowt queer as....
We use the same towels as Tansy - bought them a couple of years ago at Leclerc. You could actually make them yourself if you can sew:rectangle of towelling, same length as sunbed plus 8" turnover at top, hemmed each side(same width as sunbed) and at bottom.Or: Turn over the 8" at top & then sew 1" ribbon all around, doubling it to form finished edge. If you don't know what I mean you probably shouldn't try to do it.... but it's easier than smocking!
Did anyone else ever do smocking at the RSN at Kensington?? It beats creating a web site!

Hi
Going back to the original thread...enquiries have really slowed down now. We have had a good run for the Summer months, but nothing for Winter.
We want to target golfers for the Winter months (Nov-Feb) anyone have any ideas on how to get them interested? We have paid extra to be listed on the golf page at Ownersdirect and I did look into placing an ad in one of the golf magazines....but when I found out the prices (per month) I was horrified!
Any ideas gratefully received.

Google AdWords may be worth a go. You could target searches on Google for golfing phrases that include your location, from name of country down to name of golf course. Limit your spend to £1 per day and you will get an idea of how many clicks you are getting without breaking the bank.Crystal wrote:We want to target golfers for the Winter months (Nov-Feb) anyone have any ideas on how to get them interested?
