Below you will see a live link to one of our clients websites promoting their Holiday Home. Remember that these can evolve over time and can be updated with any new details or ideas that you may wish to use.
The outside of your home is just as important. Make sure that you capture it at its best and preferably with the sun shining. Also, make sure that you tell your potential guests what there is to do out and about. Mention any local facilities that they may be able to walk to in 5, 10 or 15 minutes. Tell tham where thay can go if they have a car. List any Parks and attractions that may be of interest to your guests, especially the ones that are family orientated like water parks.
Food is often an issue for people travelling abroad, so to hear recomendations from people that have been there before is always positive. Mention you favourite restaurants and the different types of cuisine they will find.
The more information you are able to give people, the more likely they are to book with you. Remember that not everyones idea of a holiday is the same so be open minded and included as much as possible. Links can be added from you web site to others sites that may be of interest to your guests, such as local tourist information and links to any of the attractions that you have mentioned.
You could also list where you buy your flights if air travel is required, a list of Ferries if this is how you travel or any other modes of transport. Local car hire may be an issue too so perhaps you would mention options for your guests here also.
I hope this helps to get you thinking about the content for your website if you have a second home that you wish to rent out. For more information or to discuss your individual requirements, please visit our contact us page via the link below for all our contact details, or email us directly at info@nialtoservices.co.uk
The website should aim to be informative, showing you home off to its best. You probably already have hundreds of pictures of your holiday home and now would be a great time to put those to use. You will need lots if images showing the space, facilities and what is included within the accomodation.
A picture can say a thousand words - and this is so true. If people see it they believe it so please make sure that whatever you have in your images will be there when your guests arrive. It's no good if you show a lounge with a widescreen TV and yet when your guests arrive they find a 14" portable on the table because you have locked all your nice things away. Remember, be honest and they will probably come back next year too.
Holiday homes whether in your home country or overseas are becoming an increasing popular way to generate a second income. Sometimes it is necessary to rent them out to cover their running costs and meet regular paymants or to allow you to have them in the first place. Whatever the reason, a website is an essential tool in marketing your property and quite often it can become the only one that you will need.
