Very nice George. I would change the colours of the links at the footer though as they are not readable.

Look out for my new holiday rental property site coming soon, it will be totally free to advertise your holiday properties on. I'll give you a shout when it's ready.

Very nice. Short and to the point. Nice color layout.

Very good.

Simple, stylish, and well laid out..............

p.s. You lost me as a potential client when I saw the: "Sorry, no smokers or pets."

The site look great only two things I would suggest the background a light color and you footer links hurt the eyes. Other than that good job.Good luck.

Yeah David, unfortunately a sign of the times... We go away at Christmas and looking for a cottage that will take pets is a nightmare. As for smoking, they just don't exist anymore, so I have to just tolerate the cold english weather and go outside. In the UK smoking is banned in any building bar your own house. Rumour has it we're killing others with our smoke... hey it's ok to stab somone though.. but god forbid if they breathe in our smoke?

I agree about changing the color of the links in the footer. I also think that the text within the navigation buttons is a bit hard to read. I really like how the entire page actually sits within the fold of my screen (no scrolling!). Overall a pretty nice job.

Nice site, good layout and flow. The text font in the buttons has to go, it is very hard to read and the booking button text is totally illegible. You may like it but you have to consider who you are trying to impress, yourself or the potential customer. Use clear web friendly fonts, I would also change the font color so that it is easier to read.

very nice site, only the navigation buttos i think the font has to change(IN MY OPINION) And the link colors are not the right ones. overall very nice site.....

Very very nice. Looks like a postcard. A typo in the second paragraph on home page. Should be 'renovate' I also don't like the rollover colours. but that was the only thing.

thanks so much for all the feedback guys...

really helpful.

With the links in the footer, how do you change the colours... I´m not really that bothered though as its mainly an seo thing... something for the hungry spider to get his teeth into! I think potential rentals would just use the main nav buttons...

Shame you don´t like the nav button font, i agree it could be clearer but isn´t Verdana just so boring!

Also, don´t bright colours attract the eye... bees have been homing in on flowers since year dot!

I was wondering if anyone could try the contact form... I´ve published an error webpage and a positive webpage, and linked them in the form wizard box, but just keep getting a 404 when i leave a message...

Any ideas?

Thanks again guys you´ve been great.

George

George, I tried the contact form got the 404 same as you, Don't know how to fix this though. I am not too technical, I just search this forum for help
