Top tips from the book I am reading Called Running Your Own Guest House By Stanley Wright, this is an older volume but well written and interesting. He gives some good advice on room lay out and I am just making note of his pointers about Guest House naming. He says that the name should reflect what you really are for example the Woodlands is no good in the middle of a housing estate and be wary of using joke names as many may not have the same sense of humour as you and there is no point putting people off before they even get in. Make sure you don’t put too much info on your sign as guests can be easily confused and can’t take it all in as they wiz past in a car. It is also important to make sure that you can see the sign clearly from a car as too small is worse than useless.
