How do mortgages for holiday lets work?
A holiday let mortgage is a type of loan designed for investment properties that owners rent out to generate income, often targeting vacationers and short-term renters through platforms like Airbnb. These properties can attract a variety of tenants, including families, groups of friends, or solo travelers.
Typically, mortgages for holiday lets are interest-only. This means that monthly payments cover only the interest on the loan, with the original principal amount needing to be repaid at the end of the mortgage term. Owners can repay the principal by selling the property, using savings, or refinancing with another lender.
Fees involved
Mortgages for holiday lets involve a few fees:
- Admin Fee: £199 per property, payable when you proceed to a property valuation.
- Product Fee: Starting from 2% of the loan amount, this fee is paid when the mortgage is redeemed.
- External Fees: These include valuation and solicitor fees. Every property requires a valuation by a surveyor, and a solicitor must be involved to ensure all details are correct and ownership is properly recorded.

Our mortgages for holiday lets are interest-only. This means you’ll pay only the interest back during the loan term. To enable you to take up a larger loan, we have options to defer up to 2% of payments and/or roll up to 9 months of payments and provide greater flexibility.
