Re Short term let application for 8 Craigower Crescent, Pitlochry, PH16 5HS
We would like to give notice of our objection to the short term let application for the address above due to the
following reasons:
We have lived in our house for over 28 years and when we moved in it was a quiet, residential area which was a
main attraction for us.  We have had a family and enjoyed the peaceful neighbourhood throughout the years.  
We were not informed by the owner that she was leaving and starting to host Airbnb guests.  It was after a couple of
weeks that we realised that there was a lot of new cars and activity at No 8.  
The influx of new cars that this has brought to the crescent is a danger to the numerous young children that play
round the crescent.  We already have cars of all sizes visiting the vets practice nearby and more parked cars
exacerbate the issue of safety for the children that are cycling and running about to and from the nearby
playpark.  The park has been very well used this summer by the local primary aged children and it is worrying to
watch as they play with the increase of so many cars that we feel there is an accident waiting to happen.
We have seen cars parked on the pavement which also poses a danger to pedestrians as there are elderly residents
along with young families.
We hear the guests coming and going at all hours without concern for those who live here.  We have also been
informed by another neighbour of cannabis being used by guests.
We are concerned that the house may be used by Stag and Hen parties.
We do not have any contact details for the owner to inform her with any issues as she has never offered them.  We
feel that she doesn’t live in the town and therefore has no regard for other residents.
Pitlochry has a very high ratio of short term lets to residential properties and there is such a concern that there has
been a public consultation already.  We do not feel that there is any need for there to be any more.  We chose to
live away from the busy areas of town and do not want to feel worried by people coming and going without any
regard for the community.
Thank you
Mr Paul Cameron and Mrs Sandra Cameron,
7 Craigower Crescent
Pitlochry
