Hello <<First Name>>,
Welcome to our October newsletter!🎃 Private House Stays takes pride in informing everyone we work with on events and promotions that are beneficial to your businesses. If you’d like to receive more tailored information, then speak to Cassie or one of our team!
With a challenging winter ahead, our team has been pressing on with implementing and specifying many changes and improvements to our website. We are delighted to announce that we heard earlier this month that we have been awarded a £15,000 grant, so we can prioritize and focus on new innovation for our website and our users. Private House Stays will be investing a further £5,000. We will also be expanding to the South West of England and London. We will continue to support the needs and opportunities for others and try and make the world a better place.
Our simple philosophy has been to always treat everyone placed within our path with compassion, kindness and humility. We are so deeply grateful and appreciative of that journey so far. Cassie, Megan, Adam and Anna / The Private House Stays Team 🏠

Why did you choose Private House Stays? I chose Private House Stays because its ethos matches mine exactly. That is, a genuine and reassuring enthusiasm for welcoming guests to our homes backed up with knowledge, experience and a passion for what we do. I have been with Cassie for many years and know that she has campaigned tirelessly for the cause of top quality, personalised accommodation provision. This is something she firmly believes in and she is never too busy to offer help, support and encouragement.
How has Private House Stays helped your business? Wherever possible, in my personal or business life, I prefer to interact with people who understand what I am trying to achieve in my niche market and where I am not just a number or a tick in a box. In fact, the new team are first class and are always at the end of a phone or email, especially Adam who I enormously enjoy working with. Nothing on the technical side is too much trouble for him and I feel assured and reassured that any problem will be dealt with in a most charming, efficient and timely manner.
Would you recommend Private House Stays to other owners? With Private House stays I feel strongly supported and would happily recommend Cassie and her team along with the simple to use and navigate Booking System and pricing policy.
It's always nice to know what people are saying about our brand and the brand carrying your name. For a more complete list of testimonials from the members of Private House Stays, please click HERE |
