Letting your property short-term
You do not need to apply for planning permission to use an entire flat or house as a short-term term let if:
- you pay the Council Tax for the property
- each individual short term let is no more than 90 days
- the total number of holiday let days over the calendar year is no more than 90 days
You will need to apply for full planning permission to use your flat or house as a short-term let. This is if the total rental days will be more than 90 in a year.
You don't need planning permission if you rent a room in your property while you still live there.
