Mr. and Mrs. Fifer, owners of a charming property with holiday lets in Devon, sought to enhance their guests’ experience through transforming their outdoor space. Recognising the potential to elevate their property’s appeal and functionality, they entrusted our team with the task.

The project focused on creating inviting outdoor spaces while enhancing the property’s aesthetic and practical aspects. From the start, our main objectives were as follows:

  • To provide a good outdoor experience for guests
  • To take advantage of the stunning views of the Moors
  • To improve the aesthetics of the property
  • To increase usability of the outdoor area and maximise the space
  • To ensure durability and ease of maintenance

Due to the property being used as holiday accommodation, we had to ensure all of the work was carried out to an exceptional standard but in a shorter period of time. We completed the project quickly and efficiently, with excellent feedback from Mr and Mrs Fifer.

How Did Outdoor Home Improvements Help?

Here’s what we added to the Fifers’ outdoor space:

  • Added a wooden Pergola and composite decking area:
    The modern pergola, complemented by the modern decking provided an elegant and weather-resistant seating area for guests.
  • Installed a new hot tub area: We used permeable tarmac and an attractive resin bound surface to elevate the holiday lets’ hot tub area and ensure effective water management.
  • New steps within the bank and a slabbed seating area: The client wanted to work with the natural landscape and offer panoramic views, so we built some charming steps into the banking, leading to a new slabbed seating area.
  • Additional slabbing around the front: To enhance the entrance of the property, our team added some more slabbing around the front.
  • Created some resin bound pathways: To provide more durable and aesthetically pleasing pathways around the property, to improve its accessibility.
  • Completed the space with glass balustrades: We added glass balustrades around the new seating area to ensure safety without compromising the views.

The holiday let industry is highly competitive, especially around Devon, so properties that offer unique and high-quality outdoor features will undoubtedly stand out, potentially leading to increased occupancy rates and the ability to command higher rental prices.
