Glamping Staycation Rentals
It was a surprise to me, though it really shouldn’t have been. Camping out in the Lake District with small children and basking in the sunshine for a few glorious days. Only to be cut short due to dark thunderous clouds, lashing rain and gale force winds. I did what any parent would do. Stubbornly refused to give up on our short family holiday. Frantically scouring the numerous websites such as Booking.com, Trivago, AirBNB… in the campsite cafe.. desperate. Just for a room. One room. One night. Two. Three. Anything. Anywhere.
How can the whole of Cumbria be booked up? Shepherds Huts, caravans, lodges, hotel rooms, guest houses, tree-houses, upturned boats, busses, trains.. glamping pods and cabins of all shapes and sizes. Zero availability.
Until November.
Why, indeed, not only was everything booked up. It was two or three times more expensive than usual.
We ended up in what was little more than a Travelodge, 50 miles away, in a run-down forlorn town in the back end of nowhere. At £250.00 per room, per night. In the rain.
We glumly resigned ourselves to the fact that we were fighting for accomodation with 66million other brits.
So, now, I realise the huge opportunity this presents to our clients. Past, present and future.
If there were EVER a time to build a holiday cottage or boutique lodge. Now is it. Today. Yesterday would’ve been even better.
If you are a landowner or an existing B&B…. Quick! Increase your capacity!
We rent Rotunda Roundhouses out to those who don’t have the immediate capital. Rental prices are £200.00 per week for a 5.5m en-suite building.
So, if you’re quick. You could ride the wave which clearly, many accomodation providers are experiencing this year. Of course, they need to, given the restrictions placed upon all of us last year. This is the time to catch- up and hit the ground running.
How does the saying go? “Make hay whilst the sun shines?”
I hope you do!
