Hell is a terraced house with a hot tub, bar and outdoor tv.

Get talking to your neighbours OP. Sounds like everyone is sick of them.

Some good ideas from PP
Stinky comfrey tea
Universal remote to mess with the TV
A mosquito to repel the teens
Mozart to repel the adults
Thorny plants to block the view

You can probably implement most of those with plausible deniability.

How long have they been in the house? You may find that old to let ads are still on the Internet somewhere so it might be worth searching to see if you can find out who the letting agent/ landlord is.

Best of luck.

Or more accurately, hell is what I'm going through living next door to this abominable set up.

Family from hell moved in not that long ago. Drunken pot smoking father who attended a house party in the mid 90's and apparently never left, a wife who to be fair seems like she's lost the will to live or smile, and an assortment of teenagers who like to invite all their mates round and shout about dildos and cumming in people's eyes.

The garden has slowly morphed into something resembling a butlins, which is fairly impressive as we all only have narrow postage stamp gardens. It started with a hot tub, progressed to an outdoor bar, and has culminated this weekend in some sort of wooden shack thing made of fences with a tin roof, housing an outdoor television.

The second the sun comes out it is thumping tunes ALL day, which to be fair sometimes gets turned down a little at 11 pm. Unfortunately tonight it has now been replaced by some shitty action movie being loudly played in the garden, as the family members converse in their usual dulcet yells. Must have affected their hearing with all that drum and bass.

Yes, we have tried talking to them. The father seemed to indicate through grunts that he had understood my attempt at communication with a primitive life form, however we were then treated to angle grinding in the street regularly for a few nights, as he loudly complained about the 'stuck up bitch next door' and proclaimed that I'd be 'having that'.

No, I currently can't move. I'm working on it but realistically not going to be any time soon. I'd imagine the house would be a hard sell at the moment too, most prospective owners would run a mile.

I guess I just wanted to rant, I'm so tired. I've actually found myself on the brink of tears a few times tonight, mainly from frustration. They went away last week and it was wonderful. The entire estate was practically silent, just the usual buzz of every day life going on made me really appreciate just what loud obnoxious bastards they are.

Ah the sense of humour (or lack of) of some mumsnetters is astounding

Could you get together enough money to employ a hitman?

She’s exaggerating. Hope that helps.

This is terrible advice. This would be green lighting worse and worse behavior, and the neighboour sounds vile

I am so sorry, it is hell on earth and now we have this heatwave which acts like a summoning spell for some of the worst anti-social behaviour that many people seem to revel in.

I have posted on here quite a few times about my neighbours who have turned a two up two down into an official HMO, filled the yard up with scrap and rubbish, have the doors and windows open in year round apart ftom when the weather is really bad. This heat plus their noise and the fact that I have to keep my doors and windows shut to try and lessen the worst of their racket is breaking me so I have a good idea of what you are going through. They are Roma and have "no English" so any interactions I have with them has to be done via Google Translate and my pleas for them to keep the noise down is met with laughter and shoulder shrugging and needless to say the noise and the mess carry on. The council are useless, they do have and should be using powers to hold the landlord to account, to enforce repairs and stop the overcrowding but drag their feet and say that there is no money to actively pursue the landlord. They can take landlords to court and in the past they did and some got massive fines but the council here is broke. They can't even afford to sweep the streets these days. I tend to stay in the front of my (tiny) home to aviod the worst ot the noise and use earplugs or my wireless headphones and a soothing play list. It really pisses me off that this is my third summer of this and while I would likd to offer you hope that there are processes to sort it, sadly this has not been my experience.

I’d hop over the fence and smash the TV with a hammer one early morning. Or shoot a hole through it if you know someone with a gun.

??? No it’s not!

It is funny though.

OP- Are you me? My day off yesterday…they were ALL day in the inflatable hot tub , windows open, music blaring…I was close to tears by 4pm - sat in the garden trying to read my book, earbuds everything…no chance .No peace. Same happening right now😩

I’m more for a less confrontational approach when it comes to these types.

I would secretly film them and find out who the LL is and pass on the footage. I would also purchase a universal remote control and constantly turn off their tv.

Get the landlord's details from the Land Registry? It's been a long time since I did property law so I can't say how much detail they'd have (probably not contact details) but certainly his or her name which would hopefully not be just John Smith or something and would allow you to do some digging via SM/electoral register or something. Accessing the Land Registry is something like £1 per house searched.

I'm surprised tbh that the landlord would be fine with a hot tub etc being installed! Sounds a nightmare OP, you have my sympathies.

I genuinely don't understand what it is that make some people think that it's OK to play loud music, or do anything antisocial, in residential areas.

Is it that they're too thick to realise? Surely even the most unintelligent of creatures know that if their music is loud, it is disruptive to others?

Is it entitlement? That they'll do as they please, because fuck everyone else? But this would mean they don't care about sleeping children, elderly or sick people, people with mental illness etc, that their actions could have an impact on. Are people really that selfish?

Or do some people think that's normal behaviour? Again, surely not?

No one wants to have to listen to anyone else's shit music. Gardens are supposed to be peaceful and calm. An escape. Inside the house, even more so. If someone in their own home can hear a neighbour's music, that's just not OK.

Wow, that's helpful.

I was just going to suggest that OP play some black metal or doom metal, like Burzum or Sun 0))), it sounds like it comes from the depths of hell and might scare them into being more considerate 🤘
