Westcote Glamping

Westcote Glamping is based on a working sheep farm in the Scottish Borders.
TravelNest advertises the five glamping units on 30+ popular channels, as well as coordinating calendars and managing enquiries, bookings and payments.
In its first year of operation, Westcote Glamping has become a successful business by reaching more guests with TravelNest.
Annette and Drew run a busy sheep farm alongside their glamping business, so time is at a premium. Adding another business to the mix had become time-consuming and stressful, but TravelNest was able to remove much of this stress and save them a lot of time.
Annette decided to work with TravelNest because they were able to help with key tasks:
This gives Annette time to focus on giving her guests a unique experience.
The mantra Annette and Drew have for their business is to reuse, recycle and reduce their impact on the environment.
Each unit is unique, from the handcrafted gypsy caravans to the original showman’s hut. They are all second hand and upcycled, often using local craftsmen with specialist skills.
Annette made all the soft furnishings herself and sourced vintage and upcycled furniture too. This approach has become an important selling point for attracting guests.

Annette was particularly worried about double-bookings and people turning up when they were already fully booked, but TravelNest completely eliminated this. The TravelNest calendar syncs across all listings meaning that availability is instantly updated across all channels.
Although Annette wanted more visibility on more sites, the extra work involved in organising new listings for five different properties was a concern.
TravelNest made this easy – she simply added her property information to her account and TravelNest used it to build optimised listings on 30+ sites like Booking.com, Airbnb, Expedia and more.
With over 70 bookings received to date, and a busy season to look forward to in 2020, working with TravelNest has given Annette peace of mind and helped her make a success of her business.
The biggest difference in working with TravelNest is that it has given me a bit of life back. If I was doing it all myself I’d spend all my time marketing the five properties.”
