Website Design for Holiday Cottages

Based in north Norfolk, we boast over 10 years of experience in running successful holiday cottage websites and other tourism related websites. We can advise and assist with integration of availability calendars and online booking systems. Customers can opt for our in-house package (see below) or choose an entirely bespoke design (subject to our usual design costs).

Our unique ‘Holiday Cottage Website’ package is aimed at getting you up and running as quickly as possible, with minimal costs. For this, we use a tried and proven in-house layout which meets all the needs of holiday cottage owners.

Our dedicated ‘Holiday Cottage Website’ package

Attractive, responsive and easy to use

Our holiday cottage websites are attractive, easy to use and provide owners with a straightforward solution for updating content. This type of website is built around an ever evolving design framework, each one subtly and individually styled to the owner’s taste.

‘Bulletproof’ design and mobile-friendly

The layout is bulletproof, designed to work on all screen sizes and is fully mobile friendly, increasingly the most common device used to view websites.

Powered by WordPress

With WordPress powering your website, you have the option to update content yourself and to take advantage of the myriad of other benefits WordPress brings.

A comprehensive package for holiday cottage owners

The client provides their own words and photography, with full guidance and optimisation by Josh.biz. We can often recommend professional photographers, if required. Each website typically includes the following web pages (but this is very flexible):

Home page – providing an introduction, summary and overview of what’s on offer.
Accommodation – details of the accommodation such as rooms, facilities and provisions. A gallery of photographs featuring the property interior and exterior.
See & Do – information about the location of the property and the owners personal recommendations on places to visit locally and things to do.
Map – an interactive Google map allowing the standard map view, satellite view or hybrid (both combined). The property can be pinpointed and the user is able to zoom in and out.
Prices & Availability – providing prices, availability and optionally, online booking. Clients have the choice to use a free, easy to update availability calendar. Or for best results we recommend integrating a full availability and online booking system. We can discuss and recommend the best solution for you. Ultimately you can select whatever works best for you.
Contact us – a straightforward page geared to generating direct enquiries and bookings. An appropriate feature photograph usually accompanies this page.

The actual pages and their names are can be customised to your own requirements. You’ll notice page name variations with many of the sample websites below.

All of this is available for an all-inclusive one-off design fee of £750 (one property). Multiple properties can be catered for (+£50 for each additional property).

SSL Security is installed as standard on all our websites, at no extra cost.

Fully bespoke solutions

Alternatively, owners (particularly those with several properties) are welcome to commission a fully bespoke design in line with our usual commercial packages. These are subject to our usual procedures and design fees as explained on our Frequently Asked Questions page.

We can integrate complete availability and online booking systems – and offer advice as to which service will best suit your needs best. Statistics clearly demonstrate that owners offering online booking enjoy significantly higher occupancy levels. The comprehensive management facilities provided can reduce administration considerably (saving you time).
