Better to Book Direct

Why Book Direct?

When you’re planning your holiday major online travel agents can be great for browsing, comparing accommodation providers and deciding where you want to go. But when it comes to checking out there are always added booking fees and commissions that you might not realise are making your holiday more expensive than expected. So once you’ve decided where you’d like to stay booking direct is always the best option to avoid additional fees that you don’t need to pay.

Booking directly with Broadgate Farm Cottages means you always get our best price, no booking fees, secure payment, and a real person at the end of the phone whenever you need help.

Here's why booking direct with us is the smartest choice for your East Yorkshire getaway.

Get Our Best Price Without Booking Fees

One of the biggest benefits to booking direct with us is that you will always get our lowest available price directly on the Broadgate Farm Cottages website. Third party booking platforms charge commission or booking fees, costs that are passed onto you, even if you don’t know it!

Our cheapest rates are always available when you book direct. We advertise special offers on our own website that you won't see on third-party sites and our booking system automatically presents you with the best available rate for your chosen dates. Your money should go towards your holiday and not to a third party platform.

Secure Payment Options You Can Trust

Booking direct doesn’t mean a compromise on payment security.

All card payments on our website are handled securely through Sagepay, a trusted payment gateway used by thousands of UK businesses.

Or if you prefer to pay by bank transfer we happily accept internet banking too. Simply get in touch and we'll provide our details. Many of our guests appreciate the flexibility of choosing how they pay.

Support a Family Business

Broadgate Farm Cottages is a family business, we live on our 19 acre small holding farm on the edge of the scenic Yorkshire Wolds. Every direct booking supports our family and in turn our community rather than benefiting a faceless international company. When you book direct, more of your money stays with the business providing your holiday.

For us, that means helping us to continue maintaining and improving our cottages, looking after the farm and surrounding land, and providing the high standard of accommodation and personal service that our guests have come to expect.

If you've stayed with us before and want to support Broadgate Farm, booking direct is one of the simplest ways to do so.

Direct Booking Means Direct Communication

When you book through Broadgate Farm, we have your booking details directly rather than receiving them through another company.

This makes communication straightforward from the moment you make your reservation. We can answer your questions, provide information about your cottage and the local area, and make sure we know about anything you need before your arrival without having a middleman in the way.

For guests with specific requirements, this direct communication can be particularly useful. If you have mobility requirements, accessibility questions, are travelling with a dog or are organising a larger group, we're happy to discuss your needs and help you choose the most suitable accommodation.

Speak to a Real Person

One of the most frustrating aspects of booking through large third party platforms is what happens when something goes wrong. If you have a question about your booking, a special request, or an issue during your stay, you're often left navigating automated chatbots and long wait times for support staff who have never set foot in the property.

When you book direct with Broadgate Farm Cottages, there is always a person on the other end of the phone. Need to know whether a cottage is suitable for a family member with limited mobility? Have a question about local pubs, walking routes, or nearby attractions? Just call us. We know our cottages, our farm, and our corner of East Yorkshire inside out and we're here to help before, during, and after your stay.
