His comment on not capitalizing on when kids are on and off from school says more about his character than anything. I wish hotels, airlines had the same values.
You wot ? ....
totally agree with you and the remark from teh Dragons; you are not charging enough you should double your prices ..... Just goes to show who you are dealing with.
They are like the airport dogs that have been trained to sniff out money.
They smell and breath money. Its all they do.
It's a different approach that appears to be working.
@@stephenbaxter3369 Soon to be shut down by greedy Debbie who will argue that doubling the price will only get the current 2 years waiting list down to about 1 year.
Watch this business join all the others and then peter out.
then they'd be booked ten years in advance and your kids would be grown by that time.
Ok go to a holiday park in sept or any other time the kids are at school and you’ll find they’re dead! These business has literally 8weeks out of 52 to earn their money, same with sea side town local business etc the weather plays a big factor in British tourism as does the schools, don’t blame the parks blame the government for punishing you by taking you kids out of a school.
That man was rooted with integrity and conviction what a fine gentleman. he will go far in life
It was so adorable that Sara cried happy tears when he got a deal with Deborah- what a lovely bunch of folks! ❤
yeah , I haven’t seen that before 😅
That was the first hug I've seen on the den since covid, it has made me tear up..
@@craigpardy6204because they hugged?
I think there was a cut. We do not see what happened exactly. 😊
Not wanting to capitalise or take advantage of families during peak times speaks volumes for the type of person he is. Wish him nothing but the utmost successful!
Yea but UK$250 a night is more than most hotels.
What a top bloke, not raising his prices during the holidays where he could make an absolute fortune because he understands what it's like to be a parent trying to book holidays for their kids. What a refreshing individual.
That won’t last long now the dragons are onboard
No way will prices stay the same, look at Deborah's face when he said he kept them low. @ 3.13
@@kelly6739 well, she needs the money, she has a 20+ room mansion house to heat and private jets to fuel to take her to her meetings about caring for the environment.
I’ve stayed in one of his units, it was brilliant and he’s genuinely a lovely guy. I’m looking forward to going again later this year. Definitely recommend!
you could stay at the ritz for the price he charges
@@susanreid9857 Yeah but dep's says he's to cheep .🤣
@@susanreid9857 that defeats the purpose
@@susanreid9857so you’d rather take your kids to the Ritz? O…K…
Keep Sarah!!!! Don’t let her go!!! She brings such a human touch to the brutal business world!!!! I now only watch episodes when she’s in it.
I’d especially like to see the full hour long unedited pitch for this one; great guy and the pitch was flawless
exactly, I would like to see a longer pitch for sure.
One of the top pitches in Dragons Den ever.
Lots of offers for what he asked.
No Steven
Sarah's wholesomeness
And a solid pitch and buisness.
Just needs a flow signal to top it off ;p.
@@AdamBechtolyou see it’s mimicking the traffic that’s coming towards you
@@adamcarlin8241 jesus christ mary and josepth along with the 12 apostles and 3 wise men that was one of the funniest episdes ive ever witnessed in my long painful life
Everybody wanted the deal but Deborah the obvious choice.
What did Steven steal your girl or something?
When Sara starting crying 😢😊❤❤
Sara has quickly become my favourite dragon. She oozes authenticity.
Bru this is nothing like what dragons den used to be, they turned into a woke loads of soft nonsense, bring back Duncan an Theo I miss watching them stick it all over people.
Sarah is the nicest dragon ever
He looks like a very special and humble man. God bless him and his family!!
It's vanishingly rare to get an offer of the money for the percentage of the business suggested in the pitch. Sometimes it gets close with 2 or 3 dragons bidding against each other, but to get that from 4 dragons with Steven recognising he's not the man for the job is unprecedented afaik.
Maybe more because he was one of the few that valued his business right. Unlike most others
You can see the dragons salivating as he tells them his revenue
Funny as f
They are like airport dogs trained to smell out money money money.
Spot on they all couldn’t care less about the business just about the profit projections, I really hope this guy doesn’t let that devil Deborah’s meaden raise the prices
As opposed to getting excited about a failing business with no revenue.
Not sure if you’ve seen the show before, but they sort of invest in businesses that have potential to make more money
Im in Canada and a friend built 4 unique glamping cabins in British Columbia and hes booked solid too
Interesting, my brother's friend is doing it. Maybe I should get into it.
Act fast cos everyone will be doin it eventually.. the wave is coming LOL@@AdamBechtol
very inspiring i often have tears watching dragons den when success is rewarded
Well deserved 👏🏻 - he deserves all the best.
I love that he is t doubling the prices like the dragon said he could, keeping it affordable for everyone. Especially with such a waiting list 2yrs would give you plenty of time to save if you're a low income family. I hope he does amazingly
Glamping has taken off in a lot of countries, also here in Japan. The problem with it is that it is not really camping and all too often they charge the same as a hotel room (or more!) without the benefits of staying at a hotel. I have therefore tended to see Glamping as a bit of a fad and a flash in the pan. However, I think that where this business wins and has the potential to outlive the competition is because of the flat rate and that it is cheaper. The man has hit the nail on the head and I think, the first person to get it right. Well done and I hope that Deborah doesn't try to change that.
Hope.
Where I’m from his rates still sound extortionate and the fact the dragons think he should double his prices is mad, £200 odd a night is crazy to essentially sleep in a tiny cabin in the woods, I rented a cottage on a lake last year for cheaper than that with all the same amenities that he provides.
@@eirebhoy132a cabin in someone's back garden..
@@eirebhoy132 Obviously the price is not that mad if his "tiny cabins in the woods" are fully booked for 18 months
@@eirebhoy132a cabin and sleep 6 so split that 200 into 6 people and it's not that bad
Wow, awesome work. Keep it up!
This is a WOW moment.
His success is well deserved. Awesome idea and awesome person. Well done.
woww he is amazing and what a winning idea. Sometimes you just have hte right idea and he then carried it through and acted on it. I am delighted for him.
What an absolutely fantastic business idea...Congrats🎉
we did the same never jacked prices at holiday time. tripled offseason and quadrupled repeat business. and really happy customers. sent people home with cash in their pockets. the neighbouring motels continually tried to poach customers but customers stayed loyal.
one of the best so far, in business and character...
How refreshing! They really do invest in people first, and business second. What a nice guy with a great idea.
What an absolute boss. Not wanting to capitalise on school holidays etc, top man. For that alone I hope his business makes him a multi millionaire.
Already been once and booked again for march, cant wait. Amazing place and the people are really friendly.
The rich people laugh at 2:30 killed me 😂😂😂
Super bloke, super business, wish him nothing but the best
That guy deserves all the success in the world, a great father clearly and a great guy, well done that man and wishing him all the best 🤩🤩🤩
Very nice to see a decent human being
I feel it’s sad but very to have find entrepreneurs like this anymore where they are working their model to not capitalise of school holidays. What fantastic bloke hope this business makes millions!
What a brilliant dude.
brilliant idea..I love how he refuses to capitalise on kids being off school!
30 degrees in Magaluf or rain in a tent.
Hmm let me think about that one!
Well done... bloody well done
Best business idea I have seen for a while.
“Go down.” 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
The pitch completely disarmed the Dragons so on that angle well done.
But I was expecting more probing questions from the Dragons.
Their website is Amazing! Colorful...i bet they spent 6 figures on the website, back end, digital engagement. Heck I paid $8K for a basic website for my business. Because this just aired today, its also having heavy traffic and the banner at the top says due to high traffic, its slower. What an incredible business, I wish this bloke and his family the best. It even says "as seen on Dragons Den" on the first page of the website, so I assume the deal went through due dilligance and legal hurdles.
The website looks nice, but it just seems like a template to me. And the background video that runs under the text is very pixelated. At least for me. Deborah will probably smooth out the rough spots with whoever she uses for web design.
Damn...I can build sites without templates including CMS. I should start a side business if that's what people are charging.
@@thesadwolfyou should make it your full-time hustle..
Absolutely brilliant idea.
What an amazing bloke. Wish him all the best. Didn't quite understand or see the concept properly,but I think if he branches out,he should consider branching to South Africa as well🤛🏻
omg this was really incredible to create small for the kids to now something big to the point its booked so far ahead it really is crazy to think about.
Wow, seems like they invested in new 8k cameras and a new lighting system!
I’ve watched Dragons Den since the very first series and I can honestly say this is the best one I’ve ever seen just because it wasn’t all about greed or all about numbers it was a man with a dream for hes kids that’s turned out amazing for him and for other people to use brilliant!
I've never understood why more holiday businesses don't do what he does. Of course they would make less initially but the amount of families that would go with them would more than make up for it
They say that he is not charging enough money, but he probably wouldn't be booked up fully for that next 18 months if he did
maybe.. its about finding the optimal price...start high and drop...or have a bidding style system.. it will make boatloads either way...
thats the whole point, if you get booked so much it means there is huge demand for your product at that price. If profit is your main concern then you need to increase price to get maybe 3 months in advance offers, whatever maximises your margins. This bloke though is a good guy though and the world would be abetter place if there were more people like him.
HIlarious how the Dragons faces go from delight to despair when he focuses on Deborah!🙃
The show is heavily edited with different cuts to fill content, create suspense and drive the narrative foreward. Sometimes many of their facial expressions are taken from different moments of the show and thn are added accordingly (unfortunately becoming out of context.) Case in point...i dont really believe Sara went from being disappointed to crying from happiness in a matter of seconds....it doesnt make sense
I can see this has been fully Americanised. What's with the music?
It bothers me that this is so short. I hope they don't cut 5+ minutes from all the next episodes too. It's just too much of a shrink.
I already know that each entrepreneur has about 30 minutes in the den and we only got to see less than half of that before. But now with less than one third, it's just way too short. Who are wanting to appeal to? Children with low attention span? I really don't get it.
This is just a shortened clip for TH-cam. The full version is there on iPlayer.
Good to see @AllyLaw on the Den 👍🏽
Amazing business
brilliant
Suprised didn’t ask about the land they’re on lease term on that land etc
So wholesomeeeeee
Great counter pitch from Deborah.
i promise you the prices will fly. and seasonal prices will kick in. the price is wayyyyy too low now imo. who tf can book a holiday 2years in advance? what is even that
If only he could add a flow signal to each unit!
Gotta love Sara ❤️❤️❤️
He was on that hotel program on channel 4
At least this guy was dressed smarter then most
How can one not absolutely LOVE Sara? I can understand why Steven withdrew, but it would have been so nice to have had a clean sweep...
This is a perfect example of how price gauging is not necessary to create and run a profitable business.
Deborah is gonna make him up his rates. Guaranteed
Thanks you so much for not capitalising during school holidays. So many familys just simply can't afford to take holidays away from home during kids school holidays, because many firms charge 2, 3, sometimes 4x the amount during seasonal periods. It's pure greed and it only strengthens the rich/poor divide between people. If you take your kids on holiday during school time when it's cheaper and affordable, you get slammed with fines from the council. Also some jobs won't allow you to take holidays during school off times, or allocate holiday periods.
He genuinely didn't need the investment, think he used this as a free form of advertising
So what is the official website ?
He had 2 offers for exactly what he asked for, before the other 3 had even spoken..
Every evening i watch this, and I remember myself, I had good ideas, but fear hold me back, and thanks God one day I stand up, and started my small bussines, I not become a millionaire or a rich person, but I'm thankful, that I wake up in a quiet, peaceful home, I can have a nice breakfast, lunch and dinner, I can seey family and friends often, I can sit in my car or on my motorcycle and have a nice drive in the night, it's all the things keeps me happy. I just want to say thank you, for all hard working people, I wish you all.the best, believe in your self, fight your fears, don't give up, and you will succeed. Good luck to everyone.
Gonna be a money maker great business,beat of luck
Ilove Sara 💖
I could understand all the emotion if this was a little battler doing it tough but he’s forecasting next year net profit nearly half a mill. And he’s got over a year’s worth of bookings. So what exactly does he need a dragon for …. remind me …?
Expanding quicker
So they can up the price
When did the world of business become so soft? His ethics are spot on! But Sarah come on love it wasn’t that emosh 😂
Is it eco-frendly plus using recycle products Deborah !!!
These are not the same dragons as the ones from 15 yrs ago
Why is the set different? Was this aired on Christmas or is this a new season?
He could've asked for 4% etc
Disappointed with Dragon's Dens new format, mirroring 'Shark Tank.' Miss the original's slower pace, in-depth discussions, and realism. Now, it's too rushed, less authentic, with Dragons making offers without proper questioning. Loses its unique charm and depth
Hope he becomes a millionaire
What the fuck's up with all the sound effects?
The new studio sucks so bad, but i still love the show
New season?
225 pounds a night times 365 days gets you 80 000pounds - where did he get 1.1 mil??
Multiple offers
Sara you’re a bunny not a dragon
Shark’s Den
Luckily, as Jenny was out ....
Just have a sneaking suspicion about this bloke with the cheesy smile that all is not as it seems!
I think I've seen him before on tv!
It may have been some cooking/eating/dining tv show, or possibly a tv dating show, or even Naked Attraction...yes I think it was that? Yes, he's been sussed, LOL. Whatever it was he came over as an sad egotist trying to show off and desperate for publicity...which wasn't at all impressive. All rather unpleasant really. Once Deborah finds this out for herself, she'll likely ditch him and save herself reputational embarrassment by association.
I haven’t seen DD for a while. What’s happened - has everyone taken nice pills?
These are everywhere. What’s so unique don’t get it
It’s luxury and he’s charging a flat rate….. 🙄
Am I the only one who doesn't understand what is the business?
Who in their right mind wants to book 2 years in advance for this crap!
The vanity of people these days 🤢
I’d rather have a night in Skegness in an old caravan with dog hairs on the bed
Naked attraction
DON'T WORRY EVERYONE.!!
SOON IT'LL BE MILKED FOR ALL ITS WORTH BY GREED..!!!
If jenny was here she'd be out
Is sara a dragon or a wokey
I hate the re-designed nighttime set. This show gets worse and worse by the year.
Does change the vibe quite a bit.
They rainy grey industrial stood out for it's Englishness.
But if you watch the sets over the years they get progressively more brighter and open.
Except that time in the dungeon around the Hillary/Duncan era.
