In 2021, Laila from Cuillich Mill approached us to create a dedicated website for her new
accommodation business. At the time, she had no proper site of her own and needed a
professional online presence with a booking system that would also connect to platforms
such as Airbnb and Booking.com. Managing reservations manually across different channels
was becoming a challenge, and she wanted a more streamlined solution.
We built the website in two stages. The first stage focused on her main B&B rooms, getting a
simple but effective site online quickly so she could start taking bookings. Once this was in
place, we expanded the site to promote her newly built shepherd’s hut — a self-contained
unit offering guests a different style of stay. This two-phase approach meant the business
could start trading without delay while leaving room for growth.
Alongside the design and booking integration, we supported Laila with hosting, email setup,
logo design, and ongoing technical advice. When she later decided to switch to a different
external booking platform that suited her needs better, we adapted the website accordingly
so management would remain straightforward.
The end result was a professional, flexible website that grew alongside her business,
supported direct bookings, and synchronised with third-party platforms. Laila was pleased
with the outcome and valued the ongoing support, which allowed her to focus on running
her accommodation while knowing her online presence was in good hands.
For Cuillich Mill, the project delivered not just a website but a digital foundation that could
adapt as the business evolved.
