Holiday Agency Website Rebuild for Beach Retreats.
Beach Retreats is a luxury holiday agency dedicated to creating unforgettable Cornish escapes. Founded by the Watergate Bay Family, the brand offers a carefully selected collection of exclusive properties, each chosen for its unique character, stunning locations, and exceptional amenities.
As Beach Retreats continued to grow, they needed a website platform that could better support their expanding portfolio and provide a smoother experience for guests searching for their perfect getaway. They approached us to migrate their existing website from Umbraco to a powerful WordPress platform, improving flexibility, performance, and content management.
A key part of the project was implementing a fast and reliable SuperControl API integration, allowing property availability and booking information to update seamlessly. The result is a modern holiday agency website that enhances the user journey, supports business growth, and showcases the exceptional properties Beach Retreats has to offer.

Improving performance, flexibility, and the guest booking experience
A Seamless Transition to WordPress and SuperControl API Integration.
The new Beach Retreats website was rebuilt on WordPress and seamlessly integrated with SuperControl API to create a faster, more flexible platform that supports the brand’s growing property portfolio.
The improved website delivers quicker browsing speeds, intuitive navigation, and a smoother booking journey for guests searching for their next Cornish escape. By combining a powerful content management system with reliable booking functionality, the new platform simplifies the user experience while giving the Beach Retreats team greater control over their website.
This seamless integration provides a strong foundation for future growth, helping Beach Retreats continue to deliver exceptional holiday experiences online.
Helping guests discover more of Cornwall before their stay
Informative Blog Posts for an Immersive Experience.
As part of the website rebuild, we seamlessly migrated Beach Retreats’ existing blog content to the new WordPress platform. This ensured valuable articles, local insights, and travel inspiration remained accessible while providing a stronger foundation for future content growth.
The blog allows visitors to explore Cornwall beyond their accommodation, offering helpful guides, insider recommendations, and ideas for making the most of their stay. From discovering hidden gems to finding local experiences, the content helps guests build excitement for their trip while strengthening their connection with the destination.
By combining engaging content with a seamless user experience, the new blog platform supports Beach Retreats in inspiring travellers and showcasing the best of Cornwall.

Creating a smoother way for guests to find and book their ideal stay
Simplified Booking Process for Ultimate Convenience.
To improve the booking journey for Beach Retreats guests, we integrated SuperControl calendars and search functionality throughout the website. This allows visitors to quickly browse available properties, check real-time availability, and view accurate pricing information with confidence.
We also introduced map search functionality, helping users understand property locations and explore nearby attractions before making their decision. This added context makes it easier for guests to find accommodation that matches their preferences and planned activities.
For longer, content-rich pages, we implemented flexible display options that allow sections of content to be shown or hidden when needed. This keeps the browsing experience streamlined, making it quicker and easier for visitors to find the information they need.
