Staying in my brother's rented flat
leapyear
Posts: 90 Forumite
My brother works away from home and rents a flat. He said when the government rules say it is ok to do so, I could stay at his place when he is not there, for a weekend holiday. Is this allowed? I wouldn't want him to get in trouble with the landlord, who lives right across the street from him.

You can stay there for as long as you like. Whether he's there or not.

..IMHO, as long as it is legal under any covid rules there is nothing stopping your brother letting anybody stay in "his" property...nothing to do with the landlord, (assuming he is not "sub letting").

Of course you can stay as his guest. He probably isn't allowed to sub-let to you but that's not what you're doing.Just be aware that from midnight tonight you can't travel to a 'second home' or for a holiday, so you'll have to leave sharpish!1
