I am moving down beeston shortly for my work, I have every other weekend off work that is how our rota's are worked out to make it fair.
My dad would obviously be getting single person discount once I have left. Would it be ok for me to stay the odd weekend without it affecting his entitlment?.
What if I put in annual leave and stayed there a week but went straigh back to beeston after.

if you are paying council tax at the beeston adress then you will not be liable at your dads as a guest.Be Alert..........Britain needs lerts.0

Are you taking a house in Beeston just as a place to live whilst your working in that particular job or have you move there as a (as far as it can be) permanent move ?I no longer work in Council Tax Recovery but instead work as a specialist Council Tax paralegal assisting landlords and Council Tax payers with council tax disputes and valuation tribunals. My views are my own reading of the law and you should always check with the local authority in question.0

your dad is allowed to have visitors stay whilst getting the discount0

As lomg as you are paying CT in Beeston and it is your main home, you are obviously resident in Beeston.
If you are resident in Beeston, it matters not how many nights you actually stay at your dad's.If you've have not made a mistake, you've made nothing0
