Tax on second homes to net council over £12.5m
Western Mail
|May 12, 2025
A COUNCIL tax premium paid by second home owners in Pembrokeshire is expected to net the council nearly £12.5m.
Late last year, Pembrokeshire councillors voted to drop the council tax premium on second homes from 200%, effectively a treble rate, to 150%.
Prior to that, second home owners in the county were charged a 100% (or double rate) premium.
Under Welsh Government legislation, councils can increase the premium on second homes to as much as 300%, effectively a quadruple rate.
