I’ve made up the beds, fixed the boiler breakdown and transformed basic properties into thriving holiday let investments. Now it’s time to help you.
I’ ve spent more than 15 years in the holiday letting industry, helping properties and owners navigate the ever-changing world of short-term letting.
My career has taken me to different countries and through every side of the industry, from housekeeping and hands-on property management to sourcing property portfolios and helping owners develop successful holiday lets.
Along the way, I’ve developed a unique synergy of commercial know-how, an in-depth understanding of what makes a brilliant guest experience and a genuine passion for beautiful, thoughtfully considered interiors.
Hi, I’m Ashleigh – Outdoor lover, mother and full time property enthusiast. I have spent more than 15 years working in the self catering and holiday let industry, building experience across a wide variety of properties, locations and roles. My career began in the French ski resort of Chamonix, starting out as a housekeeper before working my way up to an operations manager role, giving me first hand experience of both the everyday detail and the wider operational side of running successful holiday lets.
After moving back to the UK, I settled in Cornwall and continued my career in the industry, initially as a property manager, followed by seven years as the portfolio and investments manager for one of the county’s leading holiday let agencies. Those roles gave me the opportunity to work closely with owners across a wide range of properties, helping them navigate everything from guest experience and property presentation to commercial performance and long term investment strategy.
I have helped owner’s source, build, renovate and transform their investments into thriving holiday let success stories and my aim is to help you do the same too.
Most advice covers one side or the other an accountant’s view of the numbers, or a stylist’s view of the rooms. The properties that perform are the ones that get both right, at the same time.
To test everything I have learnt, I bought, furnished and ran my own five star holiday let on the Cornish coast. I created the listing, the pricing and the styling and managed the changeovers and guest messages at eleven o’clock at night.
The advice I give you is not just based on theory, what looks good on paper, or from AI! It comes from years of industry experience from a variety of different fields, combined with first hand knowledge of what it actually feels like to run a holiday let.
