It's more irritating that grave, but I do worry about security to an extent. Rebekah Send a noteboard - 16/11/2013 07:47:02 PM

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? Aviendha - 15/11/2013 10:10:35 PM 1438 Views
Also doesn't she need to apply for change of use to holiday let from residential? Aviendha - 15/11/2013 10:12:59 PM 1403 Views
For the door, yes. For the holiday let, I don't think so. Rebekah - 16/11/2013 09:58:30 AM 1420 Views
Hm. Tricky, that. Legolas - 15/11/2013 10:38:57 PM 1498 Views

If there is anything you can do to fight it, do so Wibble - 16/11/2013 01:25:28 AM 1488 Views
Yes. Rebekah - 16/11/2013 10:03:03 AM 1480 Views
The most reasonable thing would be to cut a bitch. LiterateDog - 16/11/2013 02:47:42 AM 1515 Views
this sounds fully reasonable, yeah. temeraire - 16/11/2013 03:22:46 AM 1508 Views
Quite. Rebekah - 16/11/2013 10:06:43 AM 1336 Views
Cutting a bitch is always an answer. *NM* @my - 20/11/2013 02:20:06 PM 945 Views

Perhaps I don't grasp the gravity of the situation. Palatine - 16/11/2013 03:52:15 PM 1535 Views

do you let your child play unsupervised now? random thoughts - 16/11/2013 06:46:08 PM 1333 Views
Not precisely. Rebekah - 16/11/2013 08:01:54 PM 1292 Views
Uh...isn't the nature of ownership that you can do what you want to with your property? Tom - 16/11/2013 10:27:05 PM 1285 Views
Not always, according to what title deeds and zoning restrictions say. *NM* Rebekah - 16/11/2013 10:32:20 PM 671 Views
Well, then you do some research before you start a shit storm with your neighbors. *NM* Tom - 18/11/2013 03:42:43 PM 712 Views
Which obviously we have done, Tim being who he is and all. *NM* Rebekah - 18/11/2013 04:49:45 PM 700 Views
Well, so what is the neighbor doing wrong? *NM* Tom - 18/11/2013 05:50:25 PM 731 Views
It depends on interpretation, from what I understand. Rebekah - 18/11/2013 07:17:03 PM 1435 Views
Well, I'm not licensed in Scotland Tom - 19/11/2013 03:04:02 PM 1342 Views
How is a short-term holiday rental not a business? LiterateDog - 19/11/2013 06:01:50 PM 1434 Views
For zoning purposes it's being used as a residence. Don't be daft. Tom - 20/11/2013 02:24:54 PM 1334 Views
It's not being used as a residence. No-one is living there. Rebekah - 20/11/2013 04:26:05 PM 1390 Views
The essence of the question was "Would you think it worth the bother to seek an injunction?" Tim - 19/11/2013 07:01:30 PM 1519 Views
I am a fan of British English usually, but not in the case of "flat". And yes, I'd go for interdict Tom - 20/11/2013 02:27:19 PM 1314 Views
Another lovely piece of Language peculiar to Scots Law... majander - 27/11/2013 04:34:23 PM 1472 Views
Though I always thought interdict was the Pope excommunicating an entire nation. *NM* Tom - 20/11/2013 02:30:23 PM 716 Views
Yes, but subject to limitations. Tim - 19/11/2013 07:03:40 PM 1869 Views
Yes, restrictive covenants. And those things can be unreasonable and still legal. Tom - 20/11/2013 02:29:45 PM 1312 Views
I would get the garden monitored with a camera Sports_Gambler - 17/11/2013 04:00:51 AM 1318 Views
Not a possiblity. *NM* Rebekah - 18/11/2013 07:17:35 PM 782 Views
I can't see much you can do really... Sports_Gambler - 19/11/2013 03:01:40 AM 1395 Views
Does the building have a factor? majander - 19/11/2013 11:38:43 AM 1345 Views
Yes indeed. Rebekah - 19/11/2013 07:13:06 PM 1295 Views
