Treehouse Holidays 08.08.08

It's not often that you get the chance to holiday in a tree, but Kate & Stephen from West Hayes Accommodation have put together the opportunity to do just that. Already providers of luxury holiday retreats in the Somerset area, they have just completed their most recent, ambitious and innovative project to provide a holiday location set in a tree. Located in stunning countryside in the beautiful conservation village of Halse and neighboured by fields of grazing sheep and ponies, the tree-house provides a unique location for a holiday with a difference. Nestling in the branches of a lime tree, the house is built completely from wood and is equipped to the highest standards, affording luxury accommodation in the most unusual of settings. The tree-house sleeps five and, as well as catering for romantic couples wishing to cuddle up on the sofa or budding Tarzan & Jane's, it is also family friendly, so children are more than welcome to monkey around to their heart's content. The living area opens onto a balcony that overlooks the countryside and provides an ideal setting for an al-fresco breakfast or an evening meal under the stars. You can even have your meals delivered to you by a number of outside caterers, leaving you to enjoy the views and the weather rather that slaving over a hot stove during your valuable holiday time!

So, if you.re looking for a unique holiday experience, visit the new pulse8 designed website, www.treehouseholidays.com. Not only does the site feature details of the tree-house and ideas of what to do in the surrounding area, it also incorporates an availability calendar showing available dates and prices.

For every booking confirmed, Kate & Stephen will plant a native tree, doing their little bit for a greener planet.

Edge Recruits. New name, new brand, new website 8.06.08

Edge Recruits is a South West based recruitment agency which specialises in finding people temporary or permanent positions throughout a range of sectors in the region. Founded in 2003, Edge Recruits takes a professional and refreshing approach to the recruitment process, both for candidates and clients alike. With no high street presence, Edge Recruits operates as a virtual high street employment agency, mainly running its services from its head office in Totnes, Devon, but also by having business managers who live and work locally to provide a point of contact for clients.

In addition, they have developed innovative new services and tools to help both employers and work seekers find the right jobs and the right people. JobBid is their online market place that connects people with jobs and employers with people 24/7. It's a bit like eBay; people sell their time, marketing their services as employees, stating the rates they want, in the places they want to work using the skills and experience they possess. Employers (or buyers) search for people with the skills and experience they need and when matches occur they can make sellers an offer by email and text which they can either accept or decline. The more of their time sellers sell and the better they perform, the quicker their grade improves on the system, creating greater demand from buyers. It.s simple to use and can really help people find work whether they want just a few odd hours per week or to work full-time.

Developed by pulse8, the branding and the website operate as the focal point for Edge recruits.

Kingfisher Print, Totnes 30.03.08

Kingfisher Design & Print, one of the leading lithographic and full colour printers in the south west, has just completed a website re-design by pulse8. The print company specialises in a number of sectors, including the food and drink industry, the leisure industry, estate agency publications and regular publications.

The new site features client friendly functions, including a quick quote form whereby a client can request a quote via the internet and a client login area where clients can view their job estimates, current and archived jobs. This user-friendly interface allows clients to follow their print jobs through the Kingfisher system, uploading their artwork and images via an FTP link when requested by Kingfisher. Not only does this make the design and print process smoother than ever, it also removes the problem of delivering artwork on cd's or trying to e-mail large print files via standard e-mail methods where some ISP's may block large file attachments.
