Did you know that you can advertise your rental property FREE on our web site?
All we ask is 10% of the rental money when we send bookings to you. This does not commit you to anything and does not change your current booking system. We shall need photos of course and information about your rental property and we will then publish it on your behalf. When we get a booking enquiry we shall contact you for your confirmation. We cannot guarantee bookings but you can use this method as an alternative advertising medium and perhaps earn extra money without incurring extra costs.
We are a long established rental company with our own customer list and we are looking to raise our profile with this new internet service.
