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.”

The global Coronavirus pandemic has changed many aspects of life in just a few short months. The travel sector, in particular, has been profoundly impacted.
Restoring people’s faith in travel is going to require sustained and careful effort to reassure staff, guests and travellers. It is our belief that this restoration of faith must be achieved without creating any misplaced confidence and must be built on safeguarding all involved in the best possible way.
Essential Coronavirus cleaning measures
White Rose Villas has implemented safer cleaning regimes since the news of the pandemic first emerged. We have been following advice to leave homes empty for 24 to 72 hours between bookings, depending on size of the home and the quantity of bedlinen available.
We have provided staff with personal protective equipment, such as masks and gloves. And we have asked them to stay at home if they show any signs of symptoms, as per the official guidance.
As always, our routine inspections are in place to ensure that your vacation rental meets all expectations.
Our cleaning commitment
Our cleaning programme ensures all guests can enjoy a thoroughly cleaned villa by including such practices as washing and drying all towels, sheets and comforters at high temperatures. Staff will use new gloves when handling clean and disinfected items.
Our housekeeping team will also pay extra attention when cleaning high-touch surfaces. High touch areas include (but are not limited to):
- Doorknobs
- Stair railings
- Telephones
- Remote controls
- Television buttons
- Sliding door handles
- Touch screens
- Kitchen appliances and fixtures
- Light switches
All of these surfaces will be cleaned with hospital-grade, EPA-approved disinfectants to ensure that they are thoroughly cleaned to the highest standards.
To give further confidence, we are now following the new SafeHome scheme.
The SafeHome scheme for vacation rental properties
The Vacation Rental Housekeeping Professionals (VRHP) and the Vacation Rental Management Association (VRMA) have launched a new SafeHome initiative to help members adopt safe cleaning standards. In many cases, these standards exceed those mandated nationally, state-wide or locally.
Since these enhanced precautions have been developed to keep guests and staff safe and healthy, we have decided to adopt these enhanced cleaning standards.
The SafeHome recommendations include:
- Disinfection and sanitation techniques
- Proper use of personal protective equipment
- Recommended products, cleaning agents and equipment
- Updated cleaning and inspection processes for soft surfaces, upholstery and linens
- Waste removal and maintenance processes
- Communicating the new, expanded cleaning processes to guests
VRBO President Jeff Hurst said, “Making families feel comfortable enough to travel again after this pandemic is a must for the entire vacation rental industry. Adopting these new cleaning guidelines will reassure travellers that vacation rentals are safe places for their next vacation.”
Self-catering can be the safest way to enjoy travel
Toby Babich, the president of VRMA, also highlighted how the launch of the SafeHome scheme will help to restore confidence. He said, “We can count on our professional community to rise to this occasion and restore confidence within our local governments and guest populations that staying in a professionally managed vacation rental is the safest way to enjoy travel.”
We agree. That’s why we welcome the news that we can reopen our homes in Osceola county to bookings from across the USA (provided the guests are resident in U.S. states with COVID-19 case rates less than 700 cases/100K residents). For your information, CDC information on COVID-19 cases per 100,000 population by the state can be found here.
The new changes we’re making to White Rose Villas cleaning processes
As part of the implementation of the SafeHome guidance, you will notice some major changes to the way we clean your home.
These changes include:
- Dining tables and breakfast bars will no longer be set. Plates, glasses, etc. will be washed and put away with the other dishes in the kitchen.
- Throw cushions and throws will be washed and put away in the closets.
- Handwash and extra soap will be left for guests on arrival. In addition, cleaning spray and cloths will be left in the home for guests’ use.
- We will be training all staff on approved VRHP courses about the new cleaning procedures and how to enact safe social distancing rules.
- In light of the new guidance, owners won’t be allowed to clean the home as this needs to be carried out by professionally licensed cleaners.
- Additional pillow protectors, pillows, mattress pads/protectors, blankets, comforters should be purchased, as possible, so they can be easily changed and laundered. If choose not to purchase additional linens, we will continue implementing the 72-hour delay between bookings.
Procedures after cleaning has been completed
We have introduced a new detailed cleaning checklist to outline the new procedures and help our staff to embed them. We are happy to send any of our owners a sample checklist for review, if you wish. If you’d like us to do this for you, please get in touch.
From now on, all cleaning reports will follow this new extended format and you will receive a copy of it after every clean, as per normal.
Once homes have been cleaned, our usual pre-arrival inspections will be performed to confirm that the villa meets the standards we have set. This final inspection confirms if a villa is show-ready and able to welcome its newest guests, making our procedures as thorough as possible.
Do you have questions?
As always, our team remain on hand to answer your questions. If you would like any further clarification about these changes, or have any questions at all, please call or email the White Rose Villas team.
Thank you for your support.
