Richard initially partnered with a letting agency to rent out his beautiful holiday cottage. Despite high hopes, he didn't see the influx of guests he expected due to poor booking performance. In a strategic move, he switched to partnering with Travelnest. He sought to boost his occupancy rates and gain full control over his listing management and guest communication.

The challenges before Travelnest

The challenges before Travelnest
The challenges before Travelnest
Richard had a difficult time managing his holiday rental property through a letting agency. Despite the property's potential, the agents only managed to secure around 12 to 15 bookings per year. In addition to this, Richard found the admin of managing multiple bookings and communicating with guests across different platforms, very time consuming.
Realising that his vacation rental business was not reaching its full potential, he decided to make a change. He found Travelnest, which allowed him to work directly with guests and gain full control over his bookings and guest communications in one simple place.
“The biggest advantage of partnering with Travelnest is the remarkable increase in occupancy and how my property is marketed across over 30 top booking sites. It's now seen by a much larger audience than it ever was with the previous agency.”

Travelnest is the expert on what they do, and if it wasn't for them, I would not have a fraction of the bookings that I currently have.
They deal with all the bookings and they take all the stress out. I think Travelnest are an excellent company and would highly recommend them.
Rachel
We'd highly recommend Travelnest if you are looking for a hassle-free way to increase bookings. Our bookings from Travelnest are always increasing and we appreciate them working with all the channels so we don't have to.
Julie & Emma
We are very pleased with Travelnest, our bookings have far exceeded our expectations. The team made the onboarding process straightforward. We would highly recommend!
Gordon & Susie
I've worked with Travelnest for over a year now. I can happily say that moving to Travelnest after deleting all my old accounts on various booking platforms was the best business decision I have made. It is such a good idea to have one port of call while having my property advertised on over 30 websites!
Jack
As soon as I started working with Travelnest, bookings started coming in for my holiday let. It's a hassle-free way to get my lodge listed on top booking sites like Airbnb and Booking.com. I had my first bookings within a week!!

The thing we love most about Travelnest is the fact that our cabin is advertised over lots of different travel websites but we only have one easy calendar to manage everything in only one place.
