      Your meta tags are borked on the home page and some others :
      	<meta name="abstract" content="content="JctNT7KrA56JE3NBQGdyTk4vwI6xd_MSS8hwJahmHLE"" />
	<meta name="abstract" content="<mcontent="JctNT7KrA56JE3NBQGdyTk4vwI6xd_MSS8hwJahmHLE"" />
	<meta name="description" content="content="JctNT7KrA56JE3NBQGdyTk4vwI6xd_MSS8hwJahmHLE"" />

      On the accommodation page you have no summary for each of the different types, so it’s a bit light on keyword content.
      Just my two cents, like the design smiley

        hey bunk, thanks for the reply

        Haha yeah, those metas are seriously borked, I’ll fix them / delete them asap

        I can see what you mean by the accomodation page being light on keywords, I’ll see what I can do about that.

        Also, everything else is fine? the descriptions / Headers / Keyword tags?

        Thank you again!

          <div id="fadingphotos">
    <img src="images/home/1.jpg" alt="feature" />
<img src="images/home/2.jpg" alt="feature" />
<img src="images/home/3.jpg" alt="feature" />
<img src="images/home/4.jpg" alt="feature" />
<img src="images/home/5.jpg" alt="feature" />
<img src="images/home/6.jpg" alt="feature" />
<img src="images/home/10.jpg" alt="feature" />
<img src="images/home/8.jpg" alt="feature" />
<img src="images/home/9.jpg" alt="feature" />
<img src="images/home/11.jpg" alt="feature" />
    </div>


          I’d try to put something descriptive in the alt tags... not neccesarily for SEO, but also for when an image doesn’t load or a visitor has images off. Same counts for some of the images in the content, they have no alt tags at all.
