It is important to choose a location which has appeal both to you (if you will be using the accommodation), and to tourists.<\/p>\n<p>But are people still choosing Cornwall for their holidays? Our parent company, Sykes Cottages, commissioned a survey in November 2024, asking 1000 Brits their holiday intentions. Demand for Cornish holidays looks to remain strong, with 80% of those surveyed planning to enjoy a UK staycation in 2025, and 25% favouring the South West as a destination.<\/p>\n<p>Some of the most popular requests when searching for accommodation in Cornwall are:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Coastal setting<\/li>\n<li>Countryside retreat<\/li>\n<li>Walking and cycling routes<\/li>\n<li>Convenient and accessible amenities<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Coastal properties with sea views near to a beach, or those set in the countryside remain most popular.<\/p>\n<p>Naturally, a property in a great position with good views will also attract a high volume of bookings and secure a good return on your investment.<\/p>\n<p>Another influential factor in a guest\u2019s choice of holiday home is its proximity to good facilities. Those situated within easy reach of a pub, restaurant, shops and tourist attractions experience higher desirability and booking performance.<\/p>\n<p>For more information on the most sought after locations in the county, read our insider\u2019s guide to the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.cornishcottageholidays.co.uk\/blog\/best-places-to-buy-a-holiday-home-in-cornwall\/\" rel=\"noopener\">top places to buy a holiday home in Cornwall.<\/a><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2 id=\"2\">2. Property features that increase your booking potential<\/h2>\n<div id=\"attachment_2562\" style=\"width: 650px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-2562\" class=\"wp-image-2562 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.cornishcottageholidays.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2021\/11\/Pig-House-Holiday-Home-with-hot-tub.jpg\" alt=\"Pig House Holiday Home with hot tub\" width=\"640\" height=\"427\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-2562\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cornishcottageholidays.co.uk\/cottage\/Cornwall-Mawnan-Smith\/Pig-House-Boskensoe-Barns-966634.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">The Pig House, Boskensoe Barns<\/a><\/p><\/div>\n<p>Not only do desirable features give a holiday cottage a competitive edge over similar properties, they also allow you to increase your rental rates and maximise your income.<\/p>\n<p>One of our top tips for holiday letting is to spend time researching the features that are in demand. Learn what the competition are offering. By doing this, you can find ways to distinguish your property from other holiday homes in the area.<\/p>\n<h3>Install a hot tub<\/h3>\n<p>Investing in a hot tub will certainly make your property stand out from the crowd. According to our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cornishcottageholidays.co.uk\/blog\/market-insights-report\/\" rel=\"noopener\">Cornwall Holiday Let Market Insights Report<\/a>, hot tubs remain one of the most searched for features on the Sykes website. Properties with hot tubs can earn an average of 37% more income!<\/p>\n<p>With energy prices on everyone\u2019s minds, a wood fired hot tub is a great, sustainable solution with lower running costs than a conventional hot tub. For more information on the financial considerations of running a holiday let, read our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cornishcottageholidays.co.uk\/blog\/holiday-let-costs\/\" rel=\"noopener\">guide to holiday let costs<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h3>Prioritise Wi-Fi<\/h3>\n<p>27% of guests consider good Wi-Fi or technology when booking a property. If your property has strong Wi-Fi, and possibly a separate quiet area with a desk for those who need to work remotely, your home will be all-the-more appealing!<\/p>\n<h3>Optimise your outdoor space<\/h3>\n<div id=\"attachment_4444\" style=\"width: 650px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-4444\" class=\"size-full wp-image-4444\" src=\"https:\/\/www.cornishcottageholidays.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2024\/03\/Tips-on-Holiday-Let-Advertising-and-Marketing-Sea-the-View.jpg\" alt=\"Tips on Holiday Let Advertising and Marketing | Sea the View, Sennen\" width=\"640\" height=\"427\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-4444\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cornishcottageholidays.co.uk\/cottage\/Cornwall-Escalls\/Sea-the-View-1128435.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Sea The View, Sennen<\/a><\/p><\/div>\n<p>With 32% of guests considering a property\u2019s garden or outdoor space when booking a holiday, another tip for holiday letting is to choose a property with external living space.<\/p>\n<p>To truly maximise this space, add sturdy garden furniture, an outdoor dining set and BBQ facilities, so guests can really relax in the Cornish sunshine. You might also consider adding storage for water sports equipment and a place to store muddy shoes. These don\u2019t have to be costly, but will encourage repeat bookings and fabulous reviews.<\/p>\n<h3>Adapt your property to be child-friendly<\/h3>\n<p>With family holidays representing 31% of our bookings in 2024, you would be wise to make your holiday home into family friendly accommodation where possible. If appropriate, simple additions such as a high chair and travel cot reduce the amount of luggage a family would need to bring with them. Other popular property features include off-road parking, a dishwasher and an open fire.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2 id=\"3\">3. Gearing your holiday let towards a \u2018save-cation\u2019<\/h2>\n<p>For many, pressures on household budgets have made holidaying closer to home more appealing than ever.<\/p>\n<p>With the continuing cost of living crisis and its impact on UK households, it\u2019s unsurprising that there has been a rise in the \u2018save-cation\u2019 holiday trend &#8211; our research found that 32% of guests holidayed in the UK in 2024 due to the lower cost.<\/p>\n<p>To encourage bookings during the low-season, using initiatives such as accepting last minute bookings, short lead time bookings and dynamic price reductions are a practical solution to encourage guests to make a \u2018save-cation\u2019 a viable option.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2 id=\"4\">4. Advice on holiday let welcome packs<\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-3619 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.cornishcottageholidays.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2023\/02\/Welcome-Pack.png\" alt=\"Top tips for letting a holiday home in Cornwall\" width=\"600\" height=\"427\" \/><\/p>\n<p>First impressions are invaluable. Providing a comprehensive information pack is one of the easiest and most effective ways to welcome guests. It\u2019s an opportunity to set your property apart and an effective way to quickly answer your guests\u2019 questions about the accommodation and local area.<\/p>\n<p>You could also provide a small welcome hamper of delicious Cornish treats. If your property is pet friendly, a few extras to make your four-legged guests feel at home will always be well received.

Be a pet-friendly holiday let<\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-2477\" src=\"https:\/\/www.cornishcottageholidays.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2021\/11\/Dogs-on-beach.jpg\" alt=\"Local recommendations - dog friendly beaches in cornwall\" width=\"640\" height=\"427\" \/><\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s not just short breaks and last-minute getaways that are more popular in recent years. We have seen a 60% increase in searches for \u2018paw-cations\u2019 since 2019, from people looking to holiday with their dogs. Properties accepting pets earn an average of 2.5 more bookings and 18% more revenue than those that don\u2019t!<\/p>\n<p>To make the most of this continually growing market, consider allowing four-legged guests. By taking this holiday letting advice, you could extend your season of bookings, by appealing to dog-loving couples and those looking for walking getaways outside of the peak periods.<\/p>\n<p>Accepting pets is also a great way to increase your income per booking, as you can add an additional charge per pet. Although we would advise owners to consider more frequent deep cleans if they accept pets, this supplement more than covers those costs.

Make your holiday home environmentally friendly<\/h2>\n<p>Across the UK, people are becoming more environmentally conscious; whether it\u2019s the known choice to shop locally, use less packaging or make lifestyle changes. The growing trend of \u2018eco-tourism\u2019 means it\u2019s worth considering how environmentally friendly your property is. Not only could making small changes help reduce your running costs, but it could increase your property\u2019s desirability to guests.<\/p>\n<p>Planet-friendly features can be great unique selling points for your holiday home. Holiday cottages with EV charging facilities receive around 260 searches a month on Google. With only 1 in 20 of our properties currently having an EV charger, this is a chance for owners to make their accommodation stand out.<\/p>\n<p>For other helpful advice, read our article on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cornishcottageholidays.co.uk\/blog\/how-to-make-your-holiday-home-eco-friendly\/\" rel=\"noopener\">how to make your holiday home eco-friendly<\/a>.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2 id=\"8\">8.

Read our blog to learn more about the benefits of using a holiday home management company in Cornwall.<\/p>\n<h3>Don\u2019t forget!<\/h3>\n<p>Remember to ensure your property is warm and aired on arrival, with great quality linen and towels. Check your inventory so that you know there is ample cutlery and utensils available, as well as lightbulbs, toilet roll and batteries. Action any suggestions left in the guest book from previous guests, and finally, ensure the garden is well kept, with external lights in good working order. As the first thing guests see, it should be appealing!<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2 id=\"9\">9.
