Willow Hall, this weekend
How a booking moves
Penciled in
A guest picks a free slot and leaves their details. The time is held for them for 30 minutes, so nobody else can take it.
Deposit paid
They pay the deposit by card. The money goes straight to your own Stripe account.
Inked
The booking is confirmed. The guest gets an email with a calendar file, and you see it in your calendar.
What runs your bookings
Your booking page
Prices, open times and your cancellation policy on one page. Share the link on Instagram, Google and your website.
Deposits up front
Guests pay a deposit when they book. Fewer no-shows, no chasing payments.
No double bookings
The database itself refuses two bookings for the same time, even if two people book at the same second.
Calendar and email
Every booking lands in your dashboard and inbox. Guests get a confirmation they can add to their calendar.
Your rules
Prices per day and time, minimum notice, guest limits, closed dates and a refund window.
Self-service cancellations
Guests cancel from the link in their email. Refunds follow your policy automatically.
Speaks your guests' language
The booking page, emails and calendar files follow each guest’s language and date format. Twelve languages, from American English to Kazakh.
