Case study · Ivy House Farm, Elton

A shepherd’s hut that books itself.

Maisy runs a shepherd’s hut on her family farm in the Peak District. Her new website opens on the view from the hut, shows live availability and takes the booking, start to finish.

What we built for Maisy

01 · The website

A homepage that opens on the view.

A clear, full-screen photo from the hut, calm movement as you scroll and a one-line date picker right at the top. It looks as good on a phone as it does on a big screen.

02 · Direct booking

Pick dates. Pay. Done.

Guests choose their dates, pay securely and get an instant confirmation. The calendar stays in step with Airbnb, so a booking on her site reserves the dates everywhere.

03 · Social media

Posts in her own voice.

Her own photos turned into thoughtful posts, with proper captions and hashtags, ready for her to approve before anything goes out.

About

Hi, I’m Evan.

I’m based near Bakewell in the Peak District. I’ve spent nearly a decade building software, and now I put that to work for independent businesses: websites, bookings, social media and the admin in between.

You work with me directly, from the first call to the finished build. I’ll explain the options in plain English, set things up and show you how to use them.

Nearly a decade: building software
30 minutes: from Bakewell for in-person visits
Your name: on every website, domain and account

Questions

Before we speak.

Who do you work with?

Independent businesses around Bakewell, the Peak District and beyond. We can work remotely, or I can visit in person within 30 minutes of Bakewell.

What can you help me with?

Websites in your own branding, holiday-let booking systems, social media built around your photos and voice, admin automation and search visibility. We agree the scope before work starts.

Do I keep ownership of my accounts?

Yes. Your website, domain, listings and service accounts stay in your name. I work through delegated access wherever the service supports it.

Can I approve social posts before they go out?

Yes. Review-first publishing is the default. If you’d rather posts went out automatically, we agree the schedule and your brand rules first.

Of course. Call or WhatsApp me on 07418 627326, or book a free 30-minute intro call at a time that suits you.
