" After several disappointing years, we moved from a large national agency in September 2009 to Blaentrothy Cottages, and Blaentrothy Cottages have increased our monthly returns by 300%. We are now almost fully booked for the rest of 2011. It has been an amazing turnaround. I think our lovely house benefits from being part of a collection of places hand-picked for their quality, rather than being the diamond amongst lesser gems." Cottage owner, Brecon, Wales.

" We have our cottage with a number of listing sites, but after enlisting Blaentrothy Cottages our monthly and annual income has more than doubled. " Cottage owner, Herefordshire, England.

" Great to see so many new cottages on the website. It looks like your business is going from strength to strength. so glad about that. We are enjoying the benefits of being with you so much that I am not planning to renew my subscription with Owner's Direct next year. I would much rather just go with you -- it would be much simpler. You are so efficient and good at marketing and so good at communicating with owners and supporting us. Blaentrothy is an absolute Godsend! Why be anywhere else? " Cottage owner, Hay on Wye Herefordshire, England.

"Whilst writing, I would just like to commend you on your business. I had almost given up hope of finding a decent cottage to stay in in Wales. The large cottage companies only seem to deal with cottage owners who let out 1970s museums. However, all of your cottages seem to provide discerning holiday makers with what they look for in 2012." Sally from Eastbourne, cottage guest.

"We have just booked our 5th (I think!) holiday with Blaentrothy Cottages. We’ve been back to the delightful Pontescob because it’s always nice to return to, knowing your way around helps. We’ve had shared holidays with friends in other houses of equal quality, but it’s not just the houses, it’s the personal service, being able to email questions about bookings, places or things to do that really encourages us and no questions seem too trivial. The service they give us as customers is so much more than the average. We have been thrilled to find a new selection each time we start to look and look forward to more. In a world of automated everything it’s lovely to find something with a personal touch. " Deborah Richards, Cornwall.
