Pro - Does anyone else's nest boxes get soaked in rain?

[The Dogmother]

Does anyone on here know 'owt about managing holiday lets, tax implications and whether it is a good idea to have a holding company?

 

Any/all advice and experience gratefully received

[Valkyrie]

Sorry DM. Perhaps have a word with English Country Cottages and see what they suggest.

 

Dunno if this is any good?

Thanks K, will have a read of that.

 

This was my first port of call, so I will look around and see what advice is available, but personal recommendations are always worth so much more.

We used Hoseasons when we let a cottage, if that's the kind of info you are after. At the time they had the highest commission rates, but they were excellent.

Thanks, but I don't think that agents will be involved.

Often holiday letting companies have a special section on their website for owners rather than 'bookers' so might be worth looking at some websites? I really recommend Helpful Holidays' although they are west country based they are a wonderful agency to deal with from a booking point of view. There is also Sykes, who are pretty much country wide.

We rent out our former granny annexe as a holiday let. We use Holiday Lettings (which is linked to Trip Advisor) and Owners Direct.
