Booking Systems Built for How Your Business Actually Works
Every business has booking requirements specific to them. The pricing rules, the availability logic, the customer communication sequence, the internal management workflow — these are specific to your business, not generic across all businesses in your sector. Generic booking plugins handle the common case. When your business is not the common case, you need something built around how you actually work.
We have built booking systems for businesses across Cumbria and the Lake District — each one built to a written specification agreed with the client before development began, each one hosted on your own infrastructure by the business that commissioned it.
Booking Systems We Have Built for Cumbrian Businesses
Six booking system types — each deployed on live Cumbrian business sites.
Booking Systems — Deployed on Live Sites
Holiday Let Booking
Availability calendar, payment schedules, and iCal sync for Lake District properties.
Outdoor Activity Booking
Dynamic activity routing with What3Words and Find Your Walk map for fell businesses.
Motorhome Site Dashboard
Warden arrival dashboard and pitch management for West Cumbrian touring sites.
No Commission on Bookings — Revenue Stays With Your Business
Every third-party booking platform — whether for holiday lets, activities, accommodation, or appointments — takes a cut of every booking. These percentages are often presented as small but compound significantly over a year. A Cumbrian holiday let business generating £40,000 in bookings through Airbnb at 15% commission pays £6,000 per year to Airbnb — every year, indefinitely.
Every booking system we build gives you a direct booking channel on your own website. Guests book directly with you. No commission. No platform dependency. No requirement to use a third-party aggregator to access your own booking functionality.
iCal synchronisation means you do not need to abandon external platforms. Keep your external listings active for their distribution reach. Every direct booking through your own site is commission-free. Over time, as your direct booking volume grows through SEO and word of mouth, the proportion of commission-paying bookings falls — and the one-off build cost of your booking system generates a return year after year.

Fixed Price. Written Specification. You Own the Code.
Every plugin we build starts with a written specification. Every feature, every data flow, every integration documented before we write a line of code. The price is fixed against that specification — not an estimate that grows as the project develops.
Your custom-built work is yours on delivery. The code, the database, the documentation. No platform dependency. If you want another developer to extend it in the future, you have everything they need. We write to professional WordPress coding standards and document as we go — not as an afterthought at project end.
We stay involved after launch. Bug fixes for issues arising from our code are covered for an initial period after delivery. For ongoing feature development, WordPress version compatibility updates, and extended support, we offer retainers or ad-hoc arrangements — whatever suits your business. Most software evolves after initial delivery, and we build long-term relationships with clients.
Based in Millom, South Cumbria. When you contact us, you get a response from someone who knows your project. Available outside normal hours for clients whose plugins are business-critical.
