Larch & Alder Framer Template

About this template

A website that turns lookers into direct bookings, without paying commission on every night.

Larch & Alder is a warm, colourful website for owners of cabins, cottages, B&Bs and small inns. Every stay gets its own colour room, so your site feels like walking through your place, not scrolling a listing. It's designed to look premium with your own everyday photos, not only professional shoots.

How guests book

Guests send an enquiry with their dates, stay and number of guests, or follow your own booking link. Choose once for the whole site, or give one stay its own booking link.

Built for small stays

Colour rooms: each stay has its own colour, from the hero to its own page
