The Cwellyn Cottage Competition
In May 2020 we launched the CwellynDream Competition for someone to win our lovingly restored stone cottage on the Llyn Peninsula in North Wales.
Before we launched CwellynDream, we spent many months researching every aspect of running such a competition - from the UK Gambling Commission regulations, to the logistical aspects of setting up the website. There was a lot to take in, and we were determined to get it right first time. There have been too many stories of unsuccessful home competitions in the past, it was clear to us that the only way to change the narrative was to run the competition in a fair, transparent and professional manner.
After successfully concluding the CwellynDream competition in September 2020, we decided to take everything we learned about responsibly running a home prize draw, and use it to help others navigate the process!
