Stage: holiday lets
Ready for the camera. Ready for guests.
From a shot list to a full guest-ready set-up.
A two-bedroom let with tired cushions, mismatched mugs and a listing still showing photographs from years ago; the photographer booked for the 14th. That is the kind of week these five are for, smallest first.
