Coming attractions

Hello All,

Just to let you know that we are aware of some minor issues with the Direct Holiday Lets website and will be making some changes in the coming weeks. We will be adding:-

Property and Enquiry Count- Within your login area you will be able to see how many times your property has been viewed and also how many enquiries you have had.

Holiday Home Owners Forum - We feel that it would be very beneficial if all of our owners could discuss different topics together and share each others knowledge in renting your holiday homes. This will be coming soon.

Adding different currency rates - I appreciate that listing your properties with rates only in euro´s is not practical and that you also need to add rates in pounds sterling and U.S dollars also. We will be making this change shortly.

If you have any other advice for us on how we can make the website more user friendly and easier to navigate please do not hesitate in contacting us via our contact form on the website. We are very happy to hear what you think as we realise that your views are of the upmost importance in helping us to evolve the website.

Fancy writing some guides? If you would like to write an area guide for the area that your holiday home is in we would be very interested to hear from you. What better place to get information for an area than from someone who owns a property there? Please email us if you would like to contribute this to the site.

I wish you all the greatest of success for the future.

Happy Renting!!
