Case Study: Briars Cottage achieves mobile working and increased business efficiency with Little Hotelier

Mobile Working and Increased Business Efficiency for Holiday-Rental Owners

Briars Cottage is a gorgeous 2 Bedroom Cottage owned by Duncan and Di since May 2013, located between Daylesford and Hepburn Springs and popular with couples seeking a romantic weekend or mid-week escape. As first-time accommodation providers working full time, they needed to maximise exposure while minimising daily operational tasks, so Duncan searched for a system to manage administrative work and connect the property to as many online distribution channels as possible.

After trialling another system, Duncan (with help from his son and a web developer friend) chose Little Hotelier via SiteMinder because it could manage and automate online bookings, provide a booking engine, and be low maintenance. Little Hotelier integrates with over 200 online distribution channels, lets them avoid manually updating OTAs, serves as their single source of truth, enables remote management (Duncan ran the business from Singapore with just an iPad and a mobile phone), and is backed by responsive customer service.
