Let your property

Why work With Us?

We hold the prestigious Quality Assured Agency standard (QAA), awarded by Visit England and we pride ourselves in taking a personal interest in the properties we let and the owners we work with. We see it as critical for us to understand the requirements of our guests and the needs of our owners to ensure we are doing our level best to satisfy both.

All of our owners are allocated an iAM (Internal Account Manager) who will take a personal interest in the way your property is performing and will be your in-house contact for guest, sales and marketing related matters.

We employ a full time Managed Services Administrator whose sole role is to help our landlords deal with everything from meeting the statutory requirements for letting, sourcing and working with their housekeeper, to dealing with day to day property problems that need a prompt response. 

If you’re thinking of letting your property, wherever it is across the Island, we provide a free advisory service for both current owners and new owners wishing to let for the first time. Presenting your property in the correct way and providing the right equipment can make all the difference between success and failure, and we are happy to pass on our knowledge and advice in this area, gathered from over 14 years serving the Island holiday letting market.

Everything we do is designed to make holiday letting your Island home as simple and trouble free as possible.

Marketing Your Property

We operate an annual marketing programme booking both national and regional press and magazine ads. In this fast moving digital world we also specialise in e-newsletters targeted to our database, and continually monitor and upgrade our website to ensure a faster and more ‘design led’ user experience. Forging strong links with local businesses such as Visit Isle of Wight and ferry operator Wightlink have yielded great opportunities for partnership marketing.

What makes a good quality holiday cottage?

Guests want to know that their precious holiday time and money are going to be well spent. We’re committed to working with quality holiday homes but also helping our owners understand how to get the best from their holiday home and the market. With our years of experience it is clear that quality is the key to unlocking a longer letting season.

As well as the presentation of your property, how it is equipped and managed, there are a number of important aspects to consider before your property comes to the market. This section also includes guidance on the Safety and Fire Risk assessments you will need to work through before letting.
