For farm stays, cabins and campsites

A few strong months and a long rest of the year. July's price in September leaves nights empty; September's price in July gives money away.

The year in a seasonal property

A campsite lives on June, July and August; a farm stay has an equally clear peak but a gentler year. Each property gets the curve of its type.

The line we will not go below

Cleaning, laundry, electricity, water and waste are easy to overlook. After commission and VAT the floor sits higher than instinct says, and our prices will not go below it.

Frequently asked questions

How do you calculate the price for a cottage, a farm stay and a campsite?

Each of these types has its own year curve. We price a holiday cottage on the holiday-rental curve, farm stays on the short-stay curve and campsites on their own.

Does the weather affect the price?

Yes, but only once your history shows that weather affects your bookings and in which direction. In one place rain cuts bookings, while in the mountains snow is often a reason to travel, so we measure the direction instead of assuming it.

Where do you get holidays, long weekends and school breaks?

From official calendars, months in advance. We calculate school breaks separately for each region in which they fall, because the dates differ between regions.

Does a campsite need a larger plan?

A campsite with a reception or many priced units needs a larger plan. The plans are described in the price list.
