When something goes wrong, having the right support matters.

When a piece of furniture at Shellseekers in St Ives was damaged, owner Sarah experienced first-hand the support available from the HolidayHost team: “The speed and professionalism with which this was dealt with was very impressive and it was reassuring to know I didn’t have to manage the situation alone.”

Through clear communication, practical help and a focus on swiftly finding the right solution, the issue was resolved and the property was ready to welcome its next guests.

✨ Olivia – St Ives & West Cornwall ✨

Some people don’t just know a place, they know how to make it memorable.

Set along Cornwall’s west coast, St Ives is known for its ever-changing light, turquoise waters, and the way the sea shapes both the landscape and the atmosphere. From sandy beaches and working harbours to winding streets filled with galleries and independent shops, it’s a place that feels both creative and deeply connected to its surroundings.

Olivia brings a thoughtful and intuitive approach to the homes she looks after, shaped by her connection to the area and the way people naturally spend time here. She focuses on creating a sense of ease from the outset, ensuring each home feels carefully prepared and welcoming.

For Olivia, it’s the details that turn a stay into something memorable.

It’s about knowing which beaches are best at different times of day.

It’s about suggesting places to wander, whether that’s along the harbour or through the town’s quieter streets.

And it’s about sharing those local touches that help each stay feel personal, from independent cafés to spots you might otherwise miss.

This is what HolidayHost is built on, combining local knowledge with genuine care, so every stay feels well looked after and shaped around the people experiencing it.

✨ Ness – Bideford & North Devon ✨

Some people don’t just know an area, they understand how to make it feel like home.

North Devon offers something a little different, a mix of coastline, countryside, and a pace of life that encourages people to slow down and settle in, something Ness knows and understands well. It’s less about the rush, and more about relaxing, enjoying the space and the surroundings.

With that strong connection to North Devon, Ness has a natural sense of what helps people settle in. It’s not just about knowing the area, but about recognising what guests are really looking for when they arrive, and what Owners need to feel confident when they’re not there.

Her approach is simple, but considered.

It’s about a home that feels right from the moment you arrive.

It’s about the small things that help people settle in quickly.

And it’s about bringing local insight into every stay, whether that’s helping guests discover places like Hartland Quay or advising Owners on how to make the most of a sea view.

Because when everything is taken care of properly, people can relax and enjoy their time away, and that’s what really matters.

Guest reviews: A revenue lever, not a vanity metric

When bookings dip, it’s easy to look at reach, advertising or pricing first. But what if the issue isn’t getting more people to see your holiday home, but giving them enough confidence to book?

Guest reviews can play a much bigger role than simply building your reputation. They provide the reassurance potential guests are looking for, helping turn interest into bookings and making them one of the most underrated levers for improving revenue.

In our latest guide, we explore:
🔹 Why reviews can have a direct impact on booking decisions
🔹 How guest confidence can influence your revenue
🔹 Why improving conversion can sometimes matter more than simply reaching more people

At HolidayHost, we believe successful holiday letting is about understanding what really drives performance, and getting the details right.

✨ Rachel – Salcombe & Portlemouth ✨

Some people don’t just live in a place, they help protect what gives it its character.

Set around the Kingsbridge Estuary, Salcombe and Portlemouth are shaped by the water, where golden beaches, sheltered coves, and a lively harbour create a way of life that feels both vibrant and quietly timeless. From crossing the estuary by ferry to long lunches overlooking the water, it’s an area that naturally invites people to slow down and take it all in.

Rachel brings a thoughtful and professional approach to the homes she looks after, shaped by her background in property management and her strong connection to the local community. She focuses on maintaining a consistently high standard across every stay, ensuring each home feels beautifully presented, carefully managed, and ready to be enjoyed from the outset.

For Rachel, it’s the details that make the difference.

It’s about knowing the best spots along the estuary to spend an afternoon by the water.

It’s about suggesting where to go for a long, relaxed lunch overlooking the harbour.

And it’s about helping guests experience Salcombe and Portlemouth in a way that is thoughtfully tailored to suit each stay.

This is where HolidayHost stands apart, combining local knowledge with a genuine commitment to the places we work in, so every stay feels seamless and true to its surroundings.
