After 17 years in the industry, owning hotels, B&Bs, self-catering apartments and en-suite rooms with shared self-catering facilities, I have a wealth of knowledge which I can share with you. I have extensive knowledge of various Property Management Systems (PMS), channel managers, front and backend systems, and the various marketing avenues. Having seen the industry change from a paper diary and traditional marketing systems to digital standalone and online PMS and marketing tools.

Together with the right support anything is possible, so if you feel like an island in the ocean being battered from every side by wind, waves, rain and other elements, that you just didn't know existed, please get in touch and I will endeavour to bring calm and understanding to your business and lifestyle.
Accompanying this website is my book Bed and Breakfast, Lifestyle or Business? - 10 Steps to Improving Your Annual Occupancy, which gives you practical advice from how to choose your location to the legal aspects of running a compliant establishment.

My second Book How to Make Money in Property, can also help you understand how property can make money and pay for itself.
I have re-developed Victorian, Edwardian and post war properties, houses, hotels, and apartments carrying out much of the work myself and using contractors. Everything from labouring to project managing developments which have all made me money and given me financial freedom.
This experience includes dealing with planning, fighting for planning, I have been up against planners on 5 different occasions and won every time. Due diligence and having a clear plan and reasons why is the key.
