Out-of-Term Holiday Use of PBMSA Bed Spaces
Operators may use PBMSA bed spaces for short-stay holiday accommodation outside of term times, which will be assessed case-by-case and permitted for a specified period only, provided this remains secondary to the main student accommodation function.
Some operators may seek to utilise bed spaces outside of term times to provide short-stay holiday accommodation and may often help contribute towards the viability of the overall development. Such arrangements will be assessed on their own merits on a case-by-case basis, but would only be permitted for a specified period of time using occupancy conditions, ensuring this is subservient to the main function to provide accommodation for students.
