In view of recent comments on our Fantastic Fawnbrake WhatsApp conversation, it might be useful to repeat the government’s rules for accommodation providers including those offering Airbnb.
There’s nothing ambiguous about these rules.
Government’s COVID-19 advice for accommodation providers,
dated 24 March 2020
https://www.gov.uk/guidance/covid-19-advice-for-accommodation-providers
“… Businesses providing holiday accommodation (including hotels, hostels, B&Bs, campsites, caravan parks, boarding houses and short term lets) should now take steps to close for commercial use as quickly as is safely possible. …”
What have Airbnb said?
‘Airbnb says it will follow government guidance ordering accommodation providers to close except to key workers.’
