Yes. From autumn 2026, anyone offering visitor stays of 31 nights or fewer in Wales must register with the Welsh Revenue Authority. Registration is free, and we handle the admin for the properties we manage.
To qualify for business rates instead of council tax, a Welsh holiday let must be let for 182 nights a year. Caernarfon’s mix of castle visitors and year round mountain traffic makes that target realistic for a well priced, well presented property, and we manage specifically towards it.
Castle and heritage visitors, climbers and walkers using the town as an Yr Wyddfa base, families touring North Wales and visitors drawn by the food and culture of the old town. That mix keeps demand spread across the year.
Gwynedd charges a council tax premium on second homes, with the level set by the council each year. A property run as a genuine holiday let business under the 182 day rule qualifies for business rates instead, which is often the deciding factor for owners here.
Yes. We manage properties in the town and the surrounding villages, including towards Llanberis and the northern edge of Eryri. If you are unsure whether your property falls in our patch, just ask.
