Edinburgh's 'Airbnb crackdown' is set to get even tougher thanks to new planned policies which would introduce a "de-facto ban" on short-term lets.
A suite of policies designed to strip the Capital of controversial holiday lets and return thousands of properties to residential use are already taking effect.
And the crackdown will get even tougher under the city's new 10-year development plan, which contains guidance that would in effect allow the council to refuse any short terms lets anywhere in the city.
