NO DRINKING in rental property - legal or not?
Comments

Were there not (still are?) properties built, owned, let by the Temperance Society....?
I agee it conflicts with the basic implied Quiet Enjoyment right, but even QE is not an absolute right.
Might it be similar to properties that are restricted to agricultural workers occupancy etc?

Religion is a load of utter tripe.
Would it be legal if I placed an advert for a property let but stating "no Tottenham fans"?0 -
There are hotels that have no drinking clauses0

It's not really enforceable, but sounds like a roundabout way to say that they prefer Muslim tenants, what with the proximity of mosques etc. also being mentioned in the advert. It's not on really.0

While it is an infringement of your ability to live as you wish, I'd just avoid properties advertised as such. As another poster has said, I'd be wondering if the LL desired to be an inspector of my lifestyle.., even though I rarely drink anything alcoholic. I still wouldn't like it.
And as a LL can just wait until your fixed term is up, and issue a S21 to start 'no fault' proceedings, I don't see the point in the clause. Its doubtful whether a judge would agree an eviction for breaking that clause, and its difficult to prove. So reality is that it isn't going to be readily enforceable. But you could still find yourself evicted if the LL doesn't like your attitude etc once the fixed term is up.0 -
guess rum filled chocolates or a ready made white wine sauce is going in the bin"It is prudent when shopping for something important, not to limit yourself to Pound land/Estate Agents"

Even if drinking is bad for you, what a joke this is.0

I purchased my bungalow from the Roman Catholic Church (it's next door to a church and the priest did live there a long time ago). In my deeds I had a clause about not having pornographic material in the house. Strange but true. Not sure how they would enforce it though. Wasn't an issue for me and I can't see it impacting on the sale.0
