Website for guest houses and B&Bs
Guest houses, B&Bs, holiday cottages, small country hotels: your guests often find you on a platform that takes a commission on every booking. Your website makes them want to book direct, at the best price for them and with no commission for you.
Your challenges, my solutions
I understand what holds back your digital growth, and I address it point by point.
The challenges of your industry
-
A commission on every night Platforms bring you guests, but they take a share of every booking, including those from loyal guests who come back every year.
-
Your house lost in a list On a platform, your property is one listing among hundreds, with the same boxes as everyone else. The soul of the place and your tips on the area have no room there.
-
Messages just to check availability Without an online calendar, every enquiry turns into a string of messages about dates, prices and terms. Many people give up before booking.
My solutions for you
-
Direct booking An availability calendar, the price of the stay calculated straight away and a deposit paid online. It can sync with your platforms to avoid double bookings.
-
Photos that make people want to come Your rooms, the pool, the table d'hôtes and the area, shown large, with words that tell the story of the house.
-
Found by travellers "B&B Lauragais", "cottage with pool near Toulouse": a page for each room and each highlight, in French, English and Spanish if you welcome international guests.
-
Your reviews in the spotlight Your Google reviews shown on the website, and your Google Business Profile linked to your pages so you are found on the map.
See what a B&B website looks like
I built a demo website for a fictional house in the Lauragais: rooms, an availability calendar with the price of the stay, table d'hôtes and things to do nearby. Open it on your phone: that is where your guests will see it.

This website is only an illustrative example to give you an idea. Yours will be designed from scratch, with a genuine visual identity of its own and a professional finish: it will not look like this example.
