Burn Hall is located in Yorkshire and offers superior accommodation, dining and corporate facilities. Ballyhoo was asked to develop their new website by World Renowned on a content management system allowing Burn Hall the ability to update their content as and when they wish.

We decided to build this website using the Joomla! content management system, a system we favour due to it’s flexibility, something that we needed with a fairly complex design such as this.

This site has also been integrated with Burn Hall’s online booking facility. Users can check if their intended dates are available through an application on the Book Now page and proceed to book these dates on Burn Hall’s separate booking website.

The new design combines beautiful shots of the Devon and Cornwall area with clear and simple graphics creating a bright and attractive website.

Their previous website was built on the Joomla content management system which allowed the Police Federation to update the content of the website as and when they wished. They wanted to continue using this system due to the independence it gave them so we simply upgraded them to the newest version of the software, Joomla 1.5.15.

It was also requested that police officers and staff wanting to use the site would have to log in to see exclusive content – a simple extension of Joomla. They also wanted to display the RSS feed of the Police Oracle website to keep their users up to date with all the latest news. We implemented this as a scrolling news feed above the main navigation.

At Ballyhoo, our web design and development skills are constantly improving. Combine this with the new technology available to us every day and we can guarantee that if you get your website redesigned by us, you’ll be delighted with the results. We can always improve on your current website – even if it was originally developed by us!

Using only the best quality timber, their skilled craftsmen will create unique pieces to any specification or design.

We were approached to build this website, designed by Create’s own in-house designer Greg Ace, having already worked with Greg on a previous project. With Create’s needs in mind, the site has been built on the Joomla content management system (CMS) which allows them freedom to easily control and update the content of their site without the need of a web developer.

The gallery feature shown below was developed using an extension for Joomla which has been customised for use throughout the site. Create can upload images for use in these galleries through Joomla quickly and easily. Visitors to the site can use the vertical bar on the left of the screen to scroll through Create’s portfolio, when a thumbnail is selected it appears as the main image allowing the user to view the image in full detail.

The Joomla CMS also allows Create to generate as many categories and pages as they require as their product range expands. The nested navigation shown below is an attractive feature we have used on many sites and will accommodate as many categories as Create wish to add.

As described by the client, “Childcare Voucher Wales commissioned Anthony to construct a website in 2006 which provided information to prospective employers, employees and child-carers about the financial benefits of providing, taking or accepting childcare vouchers. The website also provided the facility for ordering vouchers online, providing automated invoices for the employers as email attachments. An administrative area for Childcare Vouchers Wales use only allowed us to generate vouchers on a monthly basis and send automated voucher numbers to the employers and remittance advices to the carers.”

Testimonial

“In conjunction with Anthony the website was extensively tested prior to going live. Any amendments required were dealt with promptly, efficiently and in a professional manner. Ballyhoo Ltd have continued to provide an excellent after-sales service for updating and improving the website and continue to deal with services such as SSL certificate renewals.”
