The Society is one of a handful of Lenders who offer specially designed mortgages for properties that are used as holiday homes. The property must be in England, Wales or mainland Scotland and be of standard construction and have a minimum value of £100,000. The maximum loan-to-value (LTV) is 70%, reduced to 65% for mortgages over £300,000.

We do not lend on properties on sites but can consider Airbnb arrangements if the whole property is rented rather than a single room. Also, you can use the property for up to 60 days per year.

Properties with restrictive usage or holiday let covenants are acceptable. Properties with such covenants or with more than four bedrooms will also have a maximum 70% LTV restriction.

The mortgage listed below moves on to our Standard Variable Rate, 5.45% (variable), after the initial rate period. Our standard variable rate is changing to 5.60% on 1st June 2022.
