Also in the kit

Cards for the Lakehouse: a dark A5 bedside card that says Sleep well, a white A5 kitchen card that says Welcome to the Lakehouse, and both sides of a business card with a QR code

Cards for the house, included

A double-sided business card (85 × 55 mm) and two A5 cards (148 × 210 mm) for the bedside and the kitchen, each with a QR code to your site. We design them from your photos and your site's colours, and send print-ready files with 3 mm bleed for you to print wherever you like.

Tick "Make my print cards" in your brief. We make them once your site is approved, so the QR code carries its final address, and email you a proof.

Includedin every packageeach further round of changes

Showcase cards come in our standard design. Guide and Signature include one round of changes: reply to the proof with your list. We fix our own mistakes at no charge.

The opening page of the Lakehouse social plan: 39 posts over 90 days

A social plan, to add

first 90 dayseach later season

39 posts over 90 days, three a week, written from your own site. Each post comes with its caption, hashtags and alt text, and the photograph to use or the clip to film. You also get a calendar to filter and tick off, a shoot list and one round of changes. The plan reaches you working days before your start date.

Tick "Add the social plan" on any package. We don't post for you, reply to comments or run ads, and we can't promise bookings or followers. A Showcase plan has 5 area posts of the 39, because its guide is shorter.

Both plans are shown with the hosts' permission.

Open the brief, switch features on and off, and see how little there is to do. Nothing is saved and there is nothing to sign up for.
