It really doesn't seem like a year since I let my little self-catering business go. I almost miss the routine of weekly or even twice weekly changeovers and chatting to new guests as they arrive. But I'm enjoying the freedom to visit my grandchildren more or less when I like, to take a break and go away without worrying whether I will be able to keep an eye on bookings and, most of all, I'm enjoying the opportunity to write. Having a few years of self catering experience under my belt now, I can pass on some hints and tips to other would-be holiday cottage owners. Check these out on a couple of other sites I write on. It's true that the tax situation for self-catering cottage owners is not nearly as generous as it once was but, possibly, the healthy demand for UK accommodation can more than compensate.
A good self-catering cottage really does beat any other type of holiday accommodation for flexibility and all the more so if you have young children with you. A Scottish vacation in a well-run, self-catering cottage is the way to go.
