How can a farm stay or resort get featured in travel news?
A farm stay or resort gets featured in travel news by announcing something new for guests: an opening, new cottages, a farm-to-table kitchen, a wellness programme or a sustainability initiative. We write the release for you and distribute it to 200+ media sites across the country. Magazine and inflight features can follow, putting your property in front of travellers planning their next trip.
How travellers decide where to stay
Weekend travellers, families and corporate groups planning an offsite rarely book a farm stay or resort on photographs alone. They search the property, read reviews, compare it with nearby options and may ask AI assistants for recommendations with reasons. Listings on booking sites show everyone in the same format. A news story about your new organic kitchen garden, your restored heritage structure or your conservation work tells a fuller story in an independent voice, and it appears when travellers search your name. For corporate planners in particular, coverage helps justify an unfamiliar property to the colleagues who sign off on the booking.
Experiences, openings and seasonal stories
Hospitality news comes from what guests will experience. A new property or wing, a farm-to-table restaurant, a harvest festival, a stargazing or birding programme, a wellness retreat, a solar or water conservation project, or a collaboration with local artisans can each become a story. Suppose your farm stay in the Western Ghats launches guided monsoon treks: the release explains the experience, the community it involves and quotes you as the host, with one approved image. We check that the angle is genuine news rather than a seasonal offer, then write from a short brief in the form editors expect.
Features, recognition and international guests
Beyond the release, magazine and inflight features give your property the visual storytelling travel readers enjoy, and award nominations recognise hospitality and sustainability standards. Social media verification PR helps your property's public profiles carry credibility when guests check them. Podcasts and interviews can position you as a host with a point of view on rural tourism. If you welcome American travellers or partner with overseas tour operators, the US press release service distributes your news across American newswire and syndication networks. Your coverage report lists every live placement as a link, ready for your website, booking enquiries and corporate offsite proposals.
Questions we are asked most
Is a new seasonal experience enough for a press release?
It can be, if it is genuinely new and has a story behind it, such as a local tradition, a conservation link or a community partnership. A routine seasonal offer is advertising, not news. We check the angle before drafting and suggest how to frame it for editors.
Can a small homestay get news coverage like a resort?
Size matters less than story. A small homestay with a distinctive farming practice, a heritage building or a strong host personality can interest editors. Which outlets carry any release rests with their editors, so we focus on making your story worth carrying.
How do magazine features differ from a press release?
A press release announces news and is distributed to 200+ media sites across the country. A magazine or inflight feature is a longer, visual story about your property, written for travel readers. You might use a release for the opening and a feature to describe the experience.
