Dear Short Term Let Team 
We note that there is an application for a short term let at Number 3 Mount Tabor Avenue Perth PH2
7BT. 
As near neighbours of this property we have the following concerns with regard to this
application.  Our address is 2 Corsie Drive Perth PH2 7BU. 
Our concerns are 
Noise 
We understand that this house has four bedrooms and therefore there is a potential for 8 people or
more arriving and departing on a regular basis at different times. This will be noisy and will most likely
increase the amount of cars parked on the street. As there could be several cars this could affect the
junction between Mount Tabor Road and Corsie Drive as the house is directly opposite the junction. 
Normally when large groups get together in a short term let it is for a celebration get together such as
a wedding, birthday or visiting other family and friends in the area. Holidaymakers tend to choose a
recognised holiday destination and not a quiet residential area. There will be noise due to arrivals and
departures, returning home after an outing or having a celebration in the house or garden. It is known
that large properties attract groups of people on a stag or hen do which can be particularly noisy and
disruptive. As we are in close proximity to this property with our bedroom on the side facing the
property we feel this could be a significant problem for us. 
Safety and Security 
The owners will have no knowledge of who is coming to stay other than the name of the person
booking the let. As there will potentially be a large number of people passing through the area on a
regular basis this poses a risk to residents that is not there at present in relation to personal and
home security.   
This area is a quiet residential area and we feel a short term let is not appropriate and therefore we
object to this application. 
Kind Regards 
Michelle and Ian Barker
