I have used tourism=guest_house for some accommodation but is there a tag to specify self-catering?

The wiki doesn't mention anything and TagInfo doesn't show anyone adding much.

There are two tourism tags appropriate for self-catering holiday lets. These are tourism=chalet (for a building let entirely), and tourism=apartment for several apartments in a single building, with 17k and 1k uses respectively. Neither has a particularly obvious, or even highly appropriate name (I'd find it hard to label a gite or a farm holiday cottage as tourism=chalet, which dont fit the current description on the wiki), but these are what is in use.

Hi Greg, use the Scandinavian definition for self serviced hytter. They tag them like this tourism=alpine_hut with service=self. Take a look here http://www.openstreetmap.org/#map=17/60.15583/6.84245
