Just about to turn a property we have into holiday accommodation. Will be open this spring and we are thinking about the £500 mark for a week. As mentioned there are a lot of costs. Electrical testing runs to hundreds, insurance and liability is £500, new smoke alarms, etc, etc ,etc. We are not expecting to make much, and if I was not a builder we would not be doing this. The season is short, from what I can gather 15 weeks occupancy might be the norm.
Property is in Strathy -easy for forsinard lochs, Bettyhill, Durness.

Strathy should be an excellent location. Ideal for NC500 people. Hope the project goes well.

£500 for a week is perfectly reasonable.

There are several traditional holiday cottages on the coast adjacent to my house. Last year they were able to charge £700-800 pw and were full most of the year. Not sure what they are asking this year but I have heard bookings are slower.
