We have had a fantastic 15 years living and working here but the events of the past year have persuaded us that it is now time for a change. We expect to be moving in February/March but given the current restrictions on hospitality, we are assuming we will not take any more bookings between now and then. I'd just like to thank you for all your help over the last 13 years. It's been a real pleasure working with you and your team and we really appreciate the contribution you have made to the success of our business.Lindsay, from Chaffeymoor Grange.
Firstly thank you for all your help through the year I am not doing bad this year have booked up all the summer holidays just trying to promote dates which are not school holidays...Lorraine Stubberfield

I have just got around to checking out the additional website and found it excellent. Your site has proved an absolute godsend and I get many many successful hits leading to bookings through you. You must invest alot in your SEO as it is encouraging to see the excellent coverage on google. This proved a lifeline to me, as just before Christmas I had alot of upheaval with the people looking after my site SEO - they are in financial difficulties unfortunately - and so I decided to move onto another company. Shock horror though, they weren't happy and sabotaged my site (removed me from google altogether !) so my new optimisation people have had a bit of a battle on their hands. Thankfully its sorted and I'm back on google in my own right again, but if it hadn't been for Country Cottages online I would have had no hits at all, as the ones I did get all came via you. Keep up the good work and I hope you go from strength to strength in 2008. best wishesPaula Penny of Low Moor Cottages in Yorkshire

Now fully booked for August..... thanks for such a good website.Richard Copus of Stoodley Barn in Devon
Thank you for this enquiry (yes I have replied direct) plus all of the others over the past 6 months. We have done no other advertising at all and, on the basis of the first half year, we should easily reach an occupancy of 30 weeks for our first year. We thought we may get about 10 days of bookings over the Christmas period, in fact we have had 6 bookings totalling 22 days all apparently preparing for, recovering from or celebrating something to do with the time of year. Tough but profitable! Thank you for your contribution - we could not have done it without you. Very Best Wishes for a happy and Prosperous New Year.Robert Lewis of the Granary (new property) in Manningtree, Essex
