Cornwall Living

Set for success

With a little help from an agency like Cornish Traditional Cottages, there’s nothing stopping your holiday let from reaching its fullest potential.

Many people have a holiday let or flat, and some even move out of their home to let it to holidaymakers during the summer months, but how can you get the most from your holiday let? We speak to the team at Cornish Traditional Cottages, who have a few handy tips up their sleeves.

A good, reputable agency can often be a sound investment, especially if you don’t live close to the holiday let or have a busy life and can’t drop everything if your guests have an issue with the plumbing. Choosing an agency that has solid reviews, that other owners recommend, and that offers a good level of service to both guests and owners, is important.

Cornish Traditional Cottages was established in 1964 and has been run by members of the same family since then. They have great reviews, and regular offers to support those who want to visit Cornwall.

Having a reputation for first-class customer service is important, whether you’re running your holiday cottage yourself, or using an agency. Being fast to respond to questions from customers, seeking to solve their problems and being flexible regarding small issues that can make or break a customer’s holiday experience will gain you great reviews, and therefore more customers!

Cornish Traditional Cottages has a dedicated, well-trained customer service team, who are committed to ensuring a good experience for guests and owners alike, going the extra mile to ensure customers’ needs and desires are accommodated.

The key letting periods are obviously the school holidays, but you can maximise the occupancy rates, whatever time of year, by raising the quality of your property, with good décor and maintenance standards, as well as the facilities you include, and flexibility of letting periods. Many people are looking for a holiday which they can share with their dog, so offering pet-friendly accommodation will open up more possible guests.
