Testimonals

In 2021 my husband and I made the decision to convert our annex into an Air Bnb. Having never done anything like this before Rebecca was invaluable. Her advice, suggestions and help enabled us to create it ready for people to stay. Rebecca is incredibly knowledgeable and always on hand with advice and practical support. We cannot speak highly enough of Rebecca. Her passion and drive is second to none. Our guests arrived arrived each week, with any questions, worries or needs all sorted before their stay. If ever we had a problem Rebecca was always available to help us. Unlike the large company’s that manage properties Rebecca is hands on, and always there for both guests and clients.

Rebecca was so helpful and insightful and gave us a perfect solution to get us up and running. She designed our rooms and along with where we could find the products all within our budget and even help upcycle furniture we had inherited, saving us money. We can highly recommend her.

Rebecca helped us to develop our holiday home ready for gusts within a short time frame, so went above and beyond to make sure we were ready for our first guests. She helped take away the stress of what we had to do and when we had to do it, worth every penny! Thank you!
