Actually I don't think I will need another phone. I've just taken a second payment by Paym (or the mobile banking app or whatever your bank calls it). The guest had not used the system to pay anyone other than with another Barclays account before and so she made an initial payment of £1 and I got th...

Hello. I have been reading with interest the posts about card payments, as we do not have this facility and I cannot see that it would ever be viable for us. Last year I registered to accept payments via my mobile phone number on the Paym service which the banks had set up. This is a free service, s...

Hello Peter. Is a good 4 or 5 star rating from Visit England worth the effort? I would say yes, firstly because you are new to the market so you don't have a regular repeat clientele and it will help people to understand and benchmark the quality standards of what you are offering compared to others...

I fully sympathise with you Jester, as our cottage was build around 1750 so we cannot accept wheelchairs etc. The good news is once it is written it is done and updating it for future assessments may just be a case of amending the date! Don't forget to use a large size font though. For your handbook...

Hello Jester, We include in our cottage handbook information about how everything works. We have an Aga style cooker, and explain how long it will take to heat up and cool down, including a diagram of the cooker and the heat transmission as a visual aid, so that no one gets a burn from the residual ...

Small business rate releif after March 2015. What is happeni
Apologies if I am asking a daft question that everyone knows the answer to, but can someone please tell me what is happening about the small business rate releif after 31st March 2015? From what I have read there would appear to be some discretion that councils can use to aply the releif and reclaim...

Another thing some might want to consider in the finer detail of your decision making would be the possibility that any of your potential guests would have a visual disability? We are graded by Visit England and have to provide an Access Statement as part of the process, as well as having the Statem...

Hello Kev, I'm really sorry but we can't see what you are referring to. You made a comment after another post I made about our website loading slowly but there had been a problem with Microsoft at the time which affected many websites and our website was (very temporarily) one of them. After that th...
