Reflecting on a Great 2021
Due to Covid lockdowns, last year Sea View Cottage Portland, like all self catering holidays UK, wasn’t able to welcome guests until 12th April. This left 264 nights in the year when we could welcome them. In the event we actually sold 231 nights overall 61 stays (an average of 3.79 nights per stay). That’s 87.5% occupancy which is more than we dared hope for post (the worst of?) Covid.
Had it not been for having to close the cottage down on a few ocassions to carry out maintenance and for the fact that we don’t accept single night bookings, we’re sure we could have sold more nights. So we’d like to extend a big THANKYOU to all our guests who made 2021 such a great year. And also to the various self catering holidays UK sites we advertise on – sites like Direct Holiday Homes – who have steered guests in our direction.
On the back of such a great year, we’ve decided to hold our 2021 prices for the whole of 2022! Better still, we’ve closed the cottage from 6th January to 4th March 2022 whilst we carry out a major improvement that will be make a stay at Sea View Cottage, an even better stay!! More about this in our next post…
