It's more irritating that grave, but I do worry about security to an extent.

View original postDon't let her play in the garden when there's holiday visitors. Do indoor activities or go to a park or be in the garden with her.
I'm always in the garden with her, although not always in the same part of it.
View original postTrue, that's not fair to you, so if the sublet is illegal in some way, then fight it. Otherwise, I only see this as an inconvenience rather than a problem.
We're not sure of the legality of it, actually. The problem is that the deeds are not particularly clear and there's an interpretation element to it.
The biggest problem for me is that Evie comes outside with me when I hang out our washing. I can't leave her inside alone for that length of time. And I can't have my eyes on her all the time while I'm hanging out the washing, so she can wander around to the parts of the garden I can't see and I'm worried about what the holiday renters might leave in the garden that isn't good for her. Also there's no guarantee that all the people who might rent the place will be good, upstanding people like our neighbours are.
So yeah. It's more worry about the potential of Bad Things happening than anything else. Parental paranoia and all that.

Don't they need to apply for planning permission to do that?

Also doesn't she need to apply for change of use to holiday let from residential?

Perhaps I don't grasp the gravity of the situation.

Uh...isn't the nature of ownership that you can do what you want to with your property?

Not always, according to what title deeds and zoning restrictions say. *NM*

It depends on interpretation, from what I understand.

How is a short-term holiday rental not a business?

For zoning purposes it's being used as a residence. Don't be daft.

The essence of the question was "Would you think it worth the bother to seek an injunction?"

I am a fan of British English usually, but not in the case of "flat". And yes, I'd go for interdict

Yes, restrictive covenants. And those things can be unreasonable and still legal.
