Is it possible to offer day hire?

Due to the recent Sydney covid lockdown we now have no guests as they all had to cancel.

I was wondering if it’s possible to let our bnb cabin out as a mid-week day hire to locals/ small gatherings who can have use of the cabin for preparing food and meals, they could also use our rainforest walking trail, use the fire-pit, do photography etc, it would be a 9 to 5 let and would not include use of bed or shower

 Has anyone tried this? Is it allowed? How does it work with the bookings?

 Thank you

@June237 If you are in lockdown are guests even allowed to visit during the day? The biggest problem I see with your idea is that Airbnb are clamping down on anything that suggests a party may be encouraged

@Mike-And-Jane0  Thank you for your answer Sorry, you misunderstood my question.

At the time of posting my question, my part of the world was not in lock down

As mentioned, Sydney was in lock-down, (We aren’t in Sydney)  and that is where most of our guests are from

I was wanting to offer guests from my local area, (which wasn’t in lock down), the opportunity to make use of our rainforest walking trails and BBQ facilities etc for the day, 9am to 5pm

Photoshoots are also popular in my area

Parties are not allowed on our property, as stated in our policy, and as our home and our BNB are both on the same property, it is highly unlikely that anyone would even attempt to have a party

My actual question is still the same, is there a way to offer a one day hire as outlined above?
