The UK is the 8th largest international tourism destination ranked by visitor numbers and is therefore a vital sector in the UK economy that is underpinned by the availability of accommodation. Much of this can attributed to hotels, but a significant proportion relies on holiday lets being provided by private individuals. Stretching from the sandy beaches in Cornwall, to the dramatic Jurassic coast in Dorset, private self-catering accommodation is required to meet the demands of the tourism industry.

However, there are a number of factors that prospective entrants or even current providers in the industry, may have overlooked, such as rating implications, tax pitfalls and planning considerations. This seminar will inform members on the process of entering the holiday letting market with its opportunities and potential hazards that will inevitably occur.

This seminar will cover:
• What makes a successful holiday let
• Planning considerations (Conversion/New Build/Listed building)
• Tax and Rating Implications
• Marketing
• Legal Requirements

Key Speakers will be:
• Elsa Littlewood – Ernst and Young,  Accountants
• Simon Tregoning – Classic Cottages
• Tim Hayden and Caroline Waller, Clarke Willmott
