The Furnished Holiday Lettings regime changed in April 2025.

What did not disappear is the ability to claim capital allowances on qualifying expenditure incurred before that date.

Where an FHL property was acquired or refurbished in the last two tax years prior to the change, qualifying expenditure may still attract full Annual Investment Allowance, subject to the prevailing limits.

Expenditure incurred earlier can continue to be relieved through Writing Down Allowances in the appropriate pool.

If historic expenditure was never properly reviewed for embedded plant and fixtures, the opportunity may still exist.

The regime may have changed, but unclaimed capital allowances do not automatically vanish.

If you own a furnished holiday let, or advise clients who do, now is a sensible time to review whether capital allowances have been fully identified and claimed. Feel free to get in touch for an initial discussion.

The Furnished Holiday Lettings (FHL) regime has now ended, but there’s still time to claim.

If you owned or managed a Furnished Holiday Let up to 6 April 2025, you could still benefit from capital allowances before submitting your 2024/25 tax return.

Many holiday-let owners never claimed these allowances, particularly if their property was bought from private sellers as a standard residential sale.

Even though the FHL rules have gone, HMRC still accepts retrospective claims for qualifying expenditure incurred before April 2025, provided the property met the FHL criteria at the time.

Typical claims identify 20–25 percent of the purchase price as qualifying plant and machinery.

For example, on a £400,000 property, that’s £80,000–£100,000 of qualifying expenditure, worth around £32,000–£40,000 in tax savings for higher-rate taxpayers.

Qualifying items often include:
Heating, hot-water and electrical systems
Lighting and kitchen fittings
Bathrooms, flooring and built-in furniture

If you’re preparing your 2024/25 return, or you advise FHL clients, this is the time to act.

💡 Could You Be Overpaying in Tax Without Realising?

Capital allowances are one of the most underused tax reliefs in commercial property ownership.
