Claire Askham, head of mortgage sales, said: “Although holiday let products might make you think exclusively of a hot Cornwall beach in the middle of summer, we’ve actually seen a high level of enquiries for this type of mortgage throughout November and the beginning of December.
“The demand for UK based holiday lets has risen dramatically over the last few years following Brexit and the Covid pandemic, making ‘staycations’ more popular than ever.
“These factors, combined with diminishing returns on tradition buy-to-let properties due to changes in taxation and increased regulation, has resulted in investors diversifying their portfolios and looking at areas such as holiday letting more favorably.”
