Tucked away in North Wales is Emlyn’s Coppice, an adults-only glamping retreat.🌿

Each of it’s three luxury pods come with a fire pit, wood-burning hot tub, and in the Orme pod – a private sauna.

With no phone signal on site, guests need clear communication before check-in.

That’s where GuestAppy comes in. Our new app gives guests all information in a digital hub, so they can relax from the moment they arrive.

“It’s slick, it’s simple, and it just works,” praises property owner Nic. “It’s made communication easier for me, and for the guests.”

Some wonderful words about freetobook from Jeff, owner of When Pigs Fly Inn.🐷💙

Jeff and his wife Linda recently visited the freetobook office and shared some valued feedback with the team.

As a small family business ourselves, it’s so rewarding to hear we’re helping make independent hoteliers’ lives easier in the face of the big Online Travel Agents (OTAs).

We’ve helped Jeff and Linda reach 100% direct bookings, ending their reliance on OTAs.

Shoutout to all the independent inn, hotel, BnB, and holiday home owners out there!👏

👋Daniel studies Computer Science and wants to learn professional software development best practices.

👋Keiran also studies Computer Science and is keen to put what he’s learned at uni into context.

Congratulations to Paul and Fiona at MonkBridge House on winning the VisitEngland Gold Award for B&B and Guest House of the Year!🏆

Their 5-star Victorian guest house in York is where history meets modern hospitality.

With a courtyard garden, views of York Minster, and breakfasts made using local produce, it’s not hard to see why MonkBridge wins awards.

Each of its 8 rooms, named after the house's previous occupants, have been refurbished with new bathrooms, underfloor heating, Wi-Fi and USB charger ports.

Well done to all the team at MonkBridge House! We’re proud to be part of your story.

It’s time to retire passwords.🔐

For small hotel owners, switching to passkeys is a gamechanger for securing your booking system and guest data. To log in, you simply use your device’s biometrics or your phone’s PIN.

So why switch?

🔒 Better security: Passkeys can’t be “phished” or stolen

✅ Simple and fast: No more forgotten passwords during busy check-ins

❌ Eliminate human error: Saves your staff from juggling multiple passwords

⏩ Skip the SMS codes: Unlike Two-Factor Authentication, you don’t have to wait for a text message code to arrive

Using a passkey is the fastest, easiest, and most secure way to log into your freetobook account – and it’s available to all users!
