Direct Booking
Booking direct with the Owner
Booking direct with the owner will be about 15% cheaper than booking through Airbnb or Holiday Lettings, simply because of no booking commissions ir fees added on by the online platforms.
(You may first want to check the real-time date availability by checking the property listing using Airbnb or Holiday Lettings - we don't have the technology to replicate the real-time calendar on this website).
If you then prefer to book direct please email Tim on maylortim@gmail.com and let us know which dates you're interested in and we'll be very happy to assist you.

Direct Booking - Date Availability
Obviously summer peak season and the school holidays generally get snapped up the earliest - although bookings for the summer season don't really start in earnest until the dark days of January when people start looking forward to a bit of sunshine. Bookings were generally much later for the 2023 season though, so it's hard to be too specific.
Lots of chunks of May, June, September and Christmas also often get booked quite quickly.
If you want to book direct with the landlord then it's usually best to look at the Airbnb link for exact date availabilty and then email us with your specific dates and we'll get back to you very quickly.
