Many people dream of buying a house in the country or near the coast, with outbuildings that can be converted into holiday lets; or of taking over an existing holiday cottage business. Gillean Sangster did it. She moved to Scotland with her husband where they started their own successful holiday cottage business. In this book she tells you how you can do it too. This book will help you to identify your market, choose a property, and then prepare and present it for maximum effect. It will also help you to: sort out the finances with minimum fuss; deal successfully with planning permissions; market your business effectively; run your letting business day to day; and provide good service so that your clients come back again and again.
