Does your Scottish self-catering rental offer an unforgettable escape, a sense of wildness, tranquillity, or easy access to Scotland's magnificent untamed landscapes?"
If so, we'd love to welcome you to the Wilderness Cottages family.
At Wilderness Cottages, we specialise in connecting holidaymakers seeking unique Scottish experiences with exceptional properties like yours. We've been connecting guests with owners for decades, and we'd like to help you too.
We understand you want a reliable partner who prioritises quality and results. Unlike impersonal listing platforms, Wilderness Cottages is a small, motivated team dedicated to promoting some of the best self-catering properties in Scotland.
We are easy to work with, great communicators, and have well-developed processes to ensure you can manage your bookings easily. We aim to ensure you have a smooth and stress-free experience, high occupancy rates, and satisfied guests who will return year after year.
We specialise in offering traditional, high-quality service to both our guests and property owners.
We don't attempt to satisfy every holiday rental prospect in the Scottish market. We focus on what we know: Providing high-quality self-catering holiday accommodation to a demographic that seeks a mix of solitude, relaxation, adventure or discovery.
Our website focuses on what our ideal guests look for, and we carefully choose our portfolio of properties to meet their needs. Our website has terrific search engine exposure, and we also advertise on various high-traffic online platforms to extend our reach.
Our many years of service and location in Inverness equip us with substantial knowledge about the Scottish self-catering industry. We are always on hand to offer you advice and help with any problems that might crop up.
While most bookings come via our easy-to-use online system, we can also take bookings or answer guests' queries over the phone. We are available 6 days a week, ready to offer expert advice to guests to ensure they get the best holiday experience.
We utilise advertising on websites popular with our target audience and implement Google Ads to enhance our already strong presence on search engines. Our goal is to achieve the broadest online exposure within our focus area.
Facebook and Instagram are great for creating awareness about our last-minute availability and special offers. Our expanding audience makes social media a valuable and immediate marketing channel.
We regularly release an opt-in email newsletter, an ideal way to showcase new properties, highlight holiday possibilities and promote long-term deals.
Advertising in the press effectively reaches our intended audience. Newspapers have wide appeal in print and online, and specialist magazines reach those with niche interests. We regularly advertise in national and specialist publications, including broadsheets and Sunday supplements.
Recently, many independent agencies have been absorbed by large, impersonal companies, making it harder for your property to stand out despite promises of massive exposure.
However, a consequence of joining such large platforms is that peer competition rises significantly. As a result, standing out from the crowd on these platforms becomes increasingly more challenging, and therefore, occupancy rates may not improve. Owners are left to wonder what they have to do.
If this sounds familiar, we'd like to show you that it doesn't have to be this way.
While we don't offer self-management or multi-channel synchronization features, we can provide exposure on our popular website and carefully selected marketing channels that we are confident will produce results.
Additionally, we write engaging and compelling property descriptions that we know our audience appreciates, and we handle the booking process from start to finish.
We can advise on achievable rates and occupancy levels and, if necessary, suggest ways to make your property more appealing to potential guests.
Our guests rave about their amazing experiences in Scotland and our exceptional service. See what they have to say...
