Web Design for Holiday Chalets (With Booking Form)

Web Design for Holiday Chalet Rental Business

Background

Wightbay Holidays is a holiday chalet rental business run by David and Gillian Cotton. They have 4 units for rent in the Yaverland-based chalet park.

In 2016, we were approached by the couple to help them develop a custom website to help promote the launch of their new business.

So, we got down to talking and we soon saw that there was a very unqiue brand here that had many USPs.

I soon decided that the project would be worthy of supporting.

Goals

Sandown Bay Holiday Centre is the location of Wightbay Holidays.

It’s a popular holiday destination on the Isle of Wight, visited by younger families and elder guests alike for its natural beauty and remote situation.

The aim with the website was to:

• Communicate the chalet’s unique characterful refurbishment
• Present an immersive user experience (it had to feel like you’re there already)
• Exhaustive in detail – no question unanswered

USPs

David and Gillian’s handiwork set new standards of presentation among their fellow holiday home owners on the park:

• Distinctive interior and exterior of each holiday homes
• Their chalets were some of the only ones to be kitted out with WiFi broadband
• Hundreds of property photos to use in the web build

Requirements

• Showcase each individual chalet
• Online booking form
• Blog integration
• RSS feed from Red Funnel ferries

Concept

• Wooden cladding exterior is key (not only does it look great, but adds necessary thermal insulation)
• Seagulls, sun and life ring
• It’s like having a virual tour of the park and each home

Deliverables

• Website with blog
• Business card design
• Promotional video

Results

A delighted husband and wife team who’ve put in tons of hard work to making their business stand out.

And now, it’s online home is equally as welcoming.
