Hey you all, Thanks for all your help. We changed our policy and our guests did arrive and didn't question payment upfront. (we actually did not have anything written about when payment was due - but that has now been added to our policies). First breakfast tomorrow morning, then more guests arriving at the weekend. All appears to be going suprisingly well! Uh oh!..!.

Love it! Everybody remembers their first.

Obviously with such a long booking is it acceptable to request 50% payment upfront. What are your thoughts. Thank you.
When we booked overseas vacations many of the B&B's required payment at in full at least 2 weeks in advance. Am I right in guessing many of your guests are British? Or? I would do what the other B&B's do in that area or make it even MORE APPEALING to a guest, if you are too different it may cost you business.
 
Stu man please report back, what did you do? How were the first guests? Are they enjoying your breakfast?
Don't keep us hangin' on here, we just got to know!

Breakfast went well. Obviously being in Spain a continental breakfast is the norm (although we do offer a cooked breakfast at an extra charge). We do the continental breakfast in a basket and leave it outside guests door in the morning, so far everyone (we practised on family before opening to public) has enjoyed it. Lots more bookings coming in for this weekend. Yeah!

Worth the extra charge for an English breakfast, even if you cannot find proper sausages!

We had the best ham with our breakfast in Barcelona. They called it bacon when speaking to us in English. Yumm I still remember that breakfast!

I would love it left outside my door! I've never had that in Europe.

We use chorizo sausages to add a spanish twist. I highly recommend it!
