That's awful! That landlord sounds like a total see you next Tuesday. I hate how little responsibility landlords have for tenants in England. I totally sympathise

Some ideas:

- Call the police if the noise is after 11 or before 7. At least so it logged so you can tell the council

- Talk to a solicitor

- watch out for drug deliveries. Report to the police

Try to generate bad reviews:

- Get friends to book and stay on the cheapest nights and leave bad reviews

- Play loud music at 7am when they're hungover in bed. The bassy kind against the wall

- Obstruct their parking

- Put up flyers about the damage they're doing to the community. Act like a crazy person if you can "welcome" them when they arrive

- Knock on their door at 7am

You have the upper hand that their retaliation will be temporary as they don't live there

If the landlord continues to harass you that's a separate charge for the police to deal with
