Business Case Studies
Jane Rees-Baynes, owner of Elm Grove Country House

Elm Grove Country House in Pembrokeshire explains how they're benefitting from TXGB
Elm Grove is an 11 bedroom, family run B&B in Pembrokeshire. We spoke to owner, Jane Rees-Baynes. "This year we were made aware of TXGB, and agreed to take part in a test group for Visit Pembrokeshire, the county’s destination management organisation. It integrates with our channel manager and even better – has a low commission % compared with some of the Online Travel Agents (OTAs). It also gives us the opportunity to access new, smaller channels which are destination specific." |
Madog’s Wells is a property with 3 accessible self-catering cottages near Llanfair Caereinion, Powys.
We caught up with owner, Ann Reed, to find out how she’s benefiting from using TXLoad, the simple booking management system provided by TXGB. “Before using TXLoad, we used to ask guests to pay by cheque or BACS,’ Ann said. “We heard about TXLoad from MWT Cymru (Mid Wales Tourism) who advised us to take a look at the benefits. I made initial enquiries with TXGB and decided to go ahead. |
Devil’s Bridge Falls is a world-famous attraction in Wales that has inspired the writing of William Wordsworth and attracted thousands of visitors for over a century.
Following their connection to TXGB, it's now much easier for the Devil’s Bridge Falls team to track bookings and manage visitor numbers, as well as provide customer updates in real-time. |
