The “voice”
of
independent accommodation providers

home
forum

Welcome to Bed Posts - here is a flavour of what we can offer you to chew on.

This is the community website for independent providers of serviced accommodation including small hotels, bed and breakfasts, guest houses, inns, self catering apartments and holiday cottage owners

If you, yourself, do not provide serviced accommodation we're sure you'll find the Open Features, summarised below, variously interesting, informative, humourous and intellectually challenging; and there'll be other features which will encourage you to return; meanwhile please use the search feature to find accommodation provided around UK by members and other parties.

If you provide serviced accommodation through an independent hotel, guest house, B&B, inn, or self-catering apartment/holiday cottage, we'd be pleased to make your acquaintance in the inner sanctum, the forum, where you'll be able to exchange views between you, me and the bedpost.

Open features:

Carol Starkey thinks law matters - legal blog

Follow Carol's blog on legal matters which may be topical, relevant to your business or related to you personally. You can write to her on a problem that you face and she will give you her take on it. Followers of Carol in the Forum's inner sanctum know that she is a must-read as we hang on her every word. Her legal training combined with guest house operational experience at The Ryecroft, Great Yarmouth, make her blog thought-provoking, informative and even controversial. Read here.

Joy of B&B - soap opera

Joy has just opened her new B and B and it's opened her eyes too! This business is a new venture for her and she is always in trouble. She is asking for YOUR advice. You'll chuckle at her mistakes, feel sorry for her, want to advise her, grow to love reading about what she is up to and even identiify with her. Fortunately Joy has a guardian angel called Carol Starkey so she'll stay in business in Southend-on-Sea. Read here..

Travel Blues - agony aunt column

Gilly Hubbard answers your questions on B&B operational matters. For example, you may have stayed at a B&B and it was not quite what you expected. Write to her and she'll publish her view from her perspective as a successful 4-star B&B owner. As she runs her Lancers B&B in this town she will empathise if you write as the proverbial Disgusted of Tunbridge Wells! Read here..
