HOSPITALITY &<br />

LEISURE<br />

Building stunning sites to showcase<br />

accommodation, eateries or activities with<br />

seamlessly integrated booking facilities.


HOLIDAY<br />

AT HOME<br />

A magnificent booking site for<br />

luxury self-catering holiday rental<br />

company, Holiday at Home.<br />

“After meeting with Geonet<br />

initially to discuss potential<br />

opportunities for our website in<br />

the future we knew it was the<br />

right thing to do to bite the<br />

bullet and change our web<br />

developers asap.<br />

The team at Geonet had so<br />

many new and fresh ideas and<br />

were all so excited about<br />

working with us to improve our<br />

current offering. The website<br />

that they created for us has had<br />

so much positive feedback so far<br />

and the team are constantly<br />

improving the look and functionality<br />

when they can. We are<br />

super pleased with our new site,<br />

so thank you Geonet!“<br />

Charlotte Atkinson<br />

Marketing Manager<br />

Holiday at Home are providers of five star award-winning holiday<br />

accommodation across the Yorkshire region, with stunning log<br />

cabins, holiday cottages and country houses scattered from the<br />

Yorkshire Dales to the North of Yorkshire.<br />

The client approached us requiring a full site ‘refresh’, to produce a<br />

new-look, contemporary visual with improved user-experience,<br />

alongside the integration of a new, slick booking system that<br />

enables users to quickly and easily find and book the<br />

accommodation that fits their exact requirements, including<br />

property type, preferred dates, party size and other specific<br />

preferences.<br />

The result is a fully responsive, clean and classy brochure website<br />

with seamlessly integrated booking facilities, as well as an<br />

abundance of information on the properties available, a handy<br />

‘Discover Yorkshire’ section detailing local recommendations<br />

including things to do and the best places to eat and drink, a<br />

regularly updated special offers area detailing seasonal treats and<br />

discounts and an integrated blog page.

launches for Tees<br />

Active to give the<br />

previous Tees<br />

Barrage International<br />

White Water Centre<br />

site a new lease of<br />

life with an<br />

exhilarating redesign.<br />

Tees Barrage is a unique and exciting activity centre<br />

offering a huge variety of adventurous watersports activities<br />

including white water rafting, powerboating, paddleboarding,<br />

canoeing, kayaking and much more.<br />

This highly engaging website features all of the latest visual features<br />

and functionality including looping video content seamlessly integrated<br />

within the homepage’s large banner area, a brand new set of quality<br />

photography representing the broad range of services, a sticky menu<br />

feature, parallax scrolling functionality, a newsletter pop up and a live<br />

scrolling feed of accreditations and associations.<br />

The navigation has been carefully re-worked to address users looking<br />

- Go Climb<br />

- Air Trail<br />

to search by type of activity or by the type of group that would be<br />

attending, so it is quick and easy for every combination to narrow<br />

down exactly what they need. The site also includes a simple booking<br />

system for users looking to book the white water rafting, and as part of<br />

phase two developments, Geonet are working with Tees Active to<br />

update the functionality of this booking system to improve usability<br />

and therefore conversion rates.

REDCAR &<br />

CLEVELAND<br />

COLLEGE<br />

A fresh and engaging website for<br />

Redcar & Cleveland College to<br />

provide learners with all the<br />

information they need when<br />

considering college.<br />

“From start to finish, Geonet<br />

have provided a quality service<br />

in developing our new platform<br />

with very tight time constraints.<br />

The new site delivers everything<br />

we wanted to achieve and gives<br />

us a platform to further<br />

springboard our digital presence<br />

from. Unlike other website<br />

agencies in the area, Geonet<br />

were able to provide a cost<br />

effective solution whilst not<br />

sacrificing design aesthetics.”<br />

Chris White<br />

Marketing Co-ordinator<br />

Redcar & Cleveland College’s previous site had an outdated design<br />

and a back-end that was difficult to manage, so Geonet delivered a<br />

full redesign and CMS development that created a look and feel<br />

that was instantly engaging to its target audiences when considering<br />

their options for further education.<br />

Geonet worked closely alongside the client to create a design that<br />

catered for the various types of learners that would be visiting, from<br />

adults to school-leavers, as well as including key facilities for current<br />

students to find out more about services and news relevant to them.<br />

Key features include a fully responsive design, a dynamic alerts<br />

ticker, an engaging social wall featuring social media activities,<br />

upcoming events and latest news stories, a simplified menu structure<br />

split into key audiences, a super straightforward application process,<br />

and much more!

service and feedback on the<br />

A large, responsive brochure<br />

website for Tees Valley Combined<br />

Authority.<br />

With lots of information to cram under one big umbrella, the team<br />

at Geonet worked with TVCA to put all of our heads together and<br />

create a large information site with a super clear menu layout and<br />

navigation structure to help users flow easily through the website.<br />

website has been<br />

overwhelmingly positive.<br />

The services and support Tees<br />

Valley Combined Authority offer<br />

can be difficult for users to<br />

understand, the team at Geonet<br />

were able to structure the site in<br />

such a way as to make it logical<br />

and straightforward to navigate<br />

for users.”<br />

Craig Peacock<br />

Marketing Manager<br />

The website also boasts a media centre, which acts as a central hub<br />

for showcasing news and promoting the latest events, cleverly<br />

allowing users to filter articles by each entity.<br />

Following the launch of the main TVCA site, we<br />

have also worked alongside the organisation to<br />

create numerous sub-sites, including a one page<br />

parallax scrolling site for the Tees Valley Mayor<br />

and a brochure website for the South Tees<br />

Development Corporation.


E-COMMERCE<br />

Creating powerful online shops to promote and<br />

sell a huge variety of products, with integrated<br />

payment gateways, delivery tools, order and<br />

invoice management and more.

shop to promote and<br />

sell Rag & Doll’s<br />

exclusive ladieswear<br />

“We have really enjoyed working<br />

with the team at Geonet<br />

Solutions and wouldn’t ever have<br />

considered anyone else! They<br />

understood our vision from the<br />

get go. From concept to design<br />

they have continually helped<br />

with design ideas and features to<br />

Following the continued success of the unique British<br />

fashion brand, both online via their current website and<br />

offline via their high street boutique, the Rag & Doll team<br />

underwent a transformation with new banding and team<br />

members, and there was no better time to redevelop the<br />

website into a fully-fledged online shop to sell various<br />

ranges of handmade garments, footwear and accessories.<br />

In addition to the usual seamless eCommerce functionality, from<br />

product variant options to discount codes and wish lists, key<br />

features of the new site include an engaging #R&DStyle page with<br />

Instagram integration to showcase real-life customers and links to<br />

the products they’re wearing, and a World of R&D area including a<br />

HEATING<br />

WORLD OF<br />

SPARES<br />

A powerful trade-only eCommerce<br />

website selling hundreds of<br />

thousands of products for one of<br />

the UK’s leading spares merchants.<br />

“<strong>Our</strong> website has been<br />

developed and hosted by<br />

Geonet Solutions since 2015, and<br />

since then the online sales side<br />

of our business has grown<br />

dramatically. Sales via our<br />

previous website typically<br />

accounted for around 10% of our<br />

total daily orders, but now this<br />

figure has grown to over 40%<br />

and the current site has already<br />

taken several million pounds in<br />

sales.<br />

We love working with Geonet<br />

and would not hesitate to<br />

recommend them to anyone<br />

Established in 2006, HWOS is a family-run business that started with<br />

the aim to offer a better service and price to the heating engineer<br />

trade. The online store sells a huge variety of products to trade<br />

customers only, offering parts matching and service and repairs.<br />

We were tasked to provide a platform for the client to sell their<br />

ever-growing database of over 250,000 products to their very busy<br />

and demanding target market. Using an eCommerce CMS as a base<br />

framework, Geonet further developed numerous bespoke elements<br />

including tailored payment gateways and multi-checkout options,<br />

various delivery methods and third-party integrations, access point<br />

installations, split log-ins for different customers, automatic<br />

shopping estimators, seamless integration with third-party<br />

inventory and parts systems, tailored CSV importers, split order<br />

module development to cater for multiple stockists and much more.<br />

who would listen.”<br />

James Dawson<br />

Operations Manager


THIRD SECTOR<br />

Designing seamless solutions to cater for<br />

complex requirements, including donations,<br />

campaigns, events, forums, intranets, shops<br />

and member portals.


An intricate website<br />

for the Great North<br />

Air Ambulance<br />

Service to handle<br />

varied customer<br />

service demands and<br />

seamlessly cater for<br />

the charity’s complex<br />

revenue stream.<br />

GNAAS’ three air ambulance helicopters bring pioneering<br />

pre-hospital care to the North East, North Yorkshire and<br />

Cumbria, rescuing hundreds of severely injured or ill<br />

patients every year.<br />

Geonet have worked with GNAAS for over a decade now, creating<br />

numerous web and app developments to keep the charity ahead of<br />

its digital game. It is vital that supporters are able to donate, buy<br />

merchandise, sign up for events, renew lottery subscriptions and<br />

apply for voluntary roles, to name but a few of the processes<br />

catered for on this powerful site.<br />

“Geonet have helped us create a<br />

website that is already changing<br />

the way we work for the better.<br />

We have noticed a marked<br />

Geonet also developed a separate mobile app to cater specifically<br />

for GNAAS’ lottery customers, notifying users when the latest<br />

results are out.<br />

increase in web engagement<br />

already as the site facilitates<br />

much greater interaction... We<br />

feel we have a website that will<br />

help us prosper over the next<br />

few years.”<br />

Jim Entwistle<br />

Head of Media &<br />

Communications


Teesside Hospice’s<br />

digital presence was<br />

ready for a full<br />

revamp to swiftly<br />

bring their website<br />

up-to-date as well as<br />

maximising visibility<br />

and income<br />

generation.<br />

- Event Management<br />

- E-commerce Shop<br />

- Shop Locator<br />

- Lottery System<br />

- Online Donations<br />

- Referral Forms<br />

- Virtual Tours<br />

The Middlesbrough-based hospice provides care for anyone<br />

suffering with a life-limiting illness, as well as offering<br />

support to the whole family affected.<br />

This powerful site provides an abundance of easy-to-find<br />

information for users looking for help and support from the<br />

Hospice within the ‘How We Help’ area, including information about<br />

the various care services on offer, members of the team, care<br />

stories and a virtual tour of the Hospice’s various areas and<br />

facilities.<br />

It was also vital that the new Teesside Hospice site acted as an<br />

income generation tool to assist the charity’s fundraising<br />

campaigns to cover the £2.7million annual running costs which<br />

enable the Hospice to support 3000+ people across the Teesside<br />

region. The ‘Get Involved’ section was therefore carefully crafted to<br />

provide a number of ways and means for site visitors to support<br />

the charity, from volunteering and donating, to attending events<br />

and playing the charity lottery, to becoming a corporate partner or<br />

finding your local charity shop.
