What is the 182-day rule for North Wales holiday lets?

To be assessed for business rates rather than council tax, a Welsh holiday let must be available to let for at least 252 days and actually let for at least 182 days in the previous 12 months. We track your occupancy against that threshold every month and flag early if you are drifting below it. This is general guidance, not tax advice.

How much does property management cost in North Wales?

15% of booking revenue, no VAT, no long-term contract - the same terms as every other area we cover.

Which parts of North Wales do you cover?

Conwy, Gwynedd and Anglesey, including Llandudno, Conwy, Colwyn Bay, Betws-y-Coed, Caernarfon, the Llŷn Peninsula and Holyhead, plus selected inland Snowdonia properties.

Is a North Wales holiday let only profitable in summer?

Summer is the peak, but shoulder seasons are strong here: walkers, cyclists, Zip World visitors and dog owners book from spring to late autumn, and off-season weekend breaks from Manchester and Merseyside fill much of the winter. Minimum-stay rules and off-peak pricing are what protect the annual figure.

Do pet-friendly and hot tub properties earn more?

In this market, usually yes - both widen your audience considerably. They also need proper operational handling, from hot tub water testing to deeper cleans, which we build into the changeover schedule.

Welsh holiday let rules: 182 days and Rent Smart Wales

Welsh holiday lets must be available for 252 days and actually let for 182 days a year to qualify for business rates rather than council tax, and several councils apply a council tax premium on second homes. Rent Smart Wales licensing can also apply depending on the letting arrangement. We track occupancy against the threshold monthly and give you the evidence you need.
