White Rose Villas is excited to announce that we are sponsoring the Bayside Football Club’s U-16 boys’ team.
Our logo will be on the players’ home and away kits for the 2025-2026 season.
Supporting the local community in Dalgety Bay
White Rose Villas UK operations are based in Dalgety Bay, Fife, in a beautiful corner of South East Scotland. Our owner’s son played at the Bayside Football Club for several seasons, so it’s an absolute privilege to be able to support this fantastic local team.
Bayside Football Club ran its first training session in Dalgety Bay Primary School hall on 3rd March 2003. In the twenty or so years since then, the club has expanded quickly.
Today, the club has 29 teams ranging from over 35’s to “the Minikickers” – the club’s youngest age group. There’s also a girls’ branch of the club, which currently has over 120 members.
The emphasis at the club is firmly on development and fun. It welcomes all children regardless of ability. The teams are coached and run by 80 dedicated volunteers and club officials whose main objective is supplying affordable football for all families.
Looking forward to the 2025-2026 season
Shaun Glass is the assistant coach and team secretary for the boys’ U-16s side for which White Rose Villas is sponsoring the kit. He’s been coaching the same group of lads since they were five or six years old and has been part of their progress through the age groups.
“Our club is a community club that caters for children from all backgrounds,” says Shaun. “So having White Rose Villas sponsor the shirts is really important. We give the boys a fresh set of home and away kit at the start of every season. Having White Rose Villas sponsor the kit means the funds we do have can be used to support our players in other ways. It’s really important to us.”
The U-16 boys’ team was promoted to the first division of the local Fife league in 2024. The 2024/25 season has been challenging, but the team have stepped up and we managed to finish a respectable 4th place in the 1st division. The 2025-2026 season is anticipated to be a very exciting year for the team.
“We have finished in the top half of the league for the 2024-2025 season,” says Shaun. “Next year, we have even bigger ambitions! We want to win the local league.”
The team has also just played in the Edinburgh Cup during the off-season. The new kit arrived ready for those matches to be played in August. As well as playing in the Fife League, the team will also play in the Scottish Cup next season – starting this coming weekend. We wish the team luck!
Shaun says, “The sponsorship from White Rose Villas is really important to the team. It helps us in our mission – not just to promote the sport and the health and wellbeing of the individual players, it’s good for the health of the community.”

Shaun says, “I’ve actually stayed at a White Rose Villas property in Orlando when we met some of our South African friends in Florida. The home was very high quality, with all the amenities. Our South African friends were very impressed with the vacation home. It was well located. The service was good all around. And Disney and Universal were within striking distance!”
Sean and his family and friends stayed at Grande Villa
White Rose Villas Operations Director, Lisa Ellis, says, “It’s an absolute privilege to sponsor the Bayside team. My son Isaac played at Bayside for several years so I understand just how important the club is to our local community. It’s wonderful to be able to give something back and I wish the team and all the players a great season! I’m looking forward to seeing their progress.”
She adds, “The discount we’re offering is just another way to celebrate our sponsorship of the team’s kit and say thank you to the coaches, parents and supporters who give up their time week in, week out.”

Fancy a Florida vacation?
We’re thrilled to share some outstanding news with our homeowner family. Our Orlando-based vacation rental business has climbed into the Top 5 Airbnb hosts in the Lakeland & Winter Haven region!
With 24 meticulously managed homes in this area, we’ve amassed 519 guest reviews averaging a remarkable 4.79 stars. This milestone reflects not only the undeniable charm of your properties, but also recognition of the dedication of our entire team to deliver an exceptional guest experience for your guests.
Why this Achievement Matters
Every five-star review isn’t just a number – it’s a story of a family reunited, a couple celebrating an anniversary, or friends making lifelong memories in the Florida’s sunshine.
Here’s what this recognition means to us all:
- Validation of Excellence: 519 reviews at 4.79 stars prove our consistent quality and service.
- Competitive Edge: Ranking in the top 5 boosts our visibility on Airbnb, attracting more bookings across Central Florida.
- Shared Success: Each homeowner’s pride, combined with our operational expertise, drives this achievement.
Your property’s unique features – whether that’s the private pool, games room or cozy reading nook – are part of what is earning these fantastic guest accolades.
Voices of Our Guests
You might have noticed that lately we’ve been sharing more of our favorite guest reviews on Facebook. And the reactions have been overwhelmingly positive.
Sharing these reviews on social media accomplishes two key goals:
- It keeps our online community engaged and informed about the guest experience.
- It showcases your property’s strengths to potential travellers, translating into more bookings and higher occupancy rates.
Consistent Updates on Our Website
In addition to Facebook, every glowing review gets featured on the corresponding property page of our website. Why? Because prospective guests often browse multiple listings before deciding – and real guest testimonials build instant trust.
The Power of Teamwork
Hitting the top 5 is no easy feat. It’s the culmination of a well-orchestrated partnership among all of you with all of the White Rose Villas team.
That includes:
- You, our homeowners who invest in high-quality furnishings, décor and timely upgrades.
- Our cleaning and maintenance crew who ensure that each property meets exacting standards.
- The guest services team, providing rapid, friendly responses to inquiries and special requests.
- The reservations department who optimize listings, craft social media posts and regularly update the listings on AirBnB.
When everyone pitches in – from routine inspections to surprise welcome baskets – the guest journey becomes seamless, leading to memorable stays and rave reviews!
How You Can Contribute
We want to build on this momentum and rank among the top hosts in every area in and around Orlando where we operate.
Here’s how you can help:
-

Exceptional guest stays are created through unique and exciting experiences layered on top of getting all the essentials right.
One of the additional services many guests request is for outside catering services. We’re really delighted to recommend Spice House Catering for this type of guest request.
We are delighted to recommend Spice House
Why do we recommend Spice House? Because of the quality of the food and the exceptional service, of course.
We can testify to the great-tasting food and exceptional service because our team recently enjoyed Spice House Catering’s services for themselves. We hosted a staff event at one of the properties we manage. And, because we’re big believers in practicing what we preach, it was a no brainer to use Spice House to cater for the event.
About Spice House Catering
Born in Montego Bay Jamaica, Spice House chef Dameon grew up in a culture where foods are grown naturally and harvested nearby. Organic has always been a way of life, not a grocery store label. With an extensive background working in some of the finest luxury hotels and cruise ships for over 20 years, chef Dameon has developed a diverse culinary background.
He strives to bring that same level of attention to detail, culinary creativity and high-class service to every catering client. If our team’s reviews are anything to go by, he certainly succeeds!
Spice House cuisine
Spice House specialities include: Jamaican jerk chicken; escovitch snapper filet; rice and peas and pineapple upside-down cake.
The menu is diverse, with plenty of cuisines and influences evident in the catering menu. Choose from Italian favourites such as caprese salad and chocolate cannoli. Or opt for a Southern Menu featuring hickory smoke BBQ chicken, honey BBQ pork ribs, grilled salmon with a dill beurre blanc, sauteed collard greens and a red velvet cake for dessert.
There are traditional Mexican options from which to choose as well as all American favourites like cobb salad and key lime pie. Or you can opt to build your own buffet. This way, you can pick all your favourites from the wide range of delicious options.
We opted to build our own buffet and the team loved the results.
