Holiday let mortgages

Bath Building Society is one of only a few lenders to offer holiday let mortgages for people who want to buy a property to rent as a holiday let. Limited Company products are also available. We will consider remortgaging an existing holiday let property for home improvements or purchase of another property. Personal use of the property is permitted for up to 60 days and we will allow the property to be let out as an Airbnb during periods when the property is unoccupied.
