If you are thinking about renting out your holiday home then you need to make sure the area is safe for other people to stay in. Although insurance for holiday homes will cover you against everything it is best to have safety precautions in place to avoid even having an accident.

Pool Safety

When you are around the pool then safety is the main concern. It would certainly seem that it is very easy for people to fall over around the pool, after all it is nearly always slippery. If you are in the process of building the Villa or house at the moment make sure tiles are installed around the pool that are not slippery when stepped on. Although gravel tiles are irratating for the feet I have to say that it is a lot better than slipping and cracking your head open.

To make sure that any kids guests may take with them are safe then it is best that put up a pool fence around the pool. The great thing about these is that they can be removed if kids are not staying.

Carbon Monoxide

We cannot see, smell or taste this gas meaning it is one of the deadliest ones out there and can kill instantly. If breathed in it could very easily result in death to a human and in high concentrations it would simply take 2-3 breaths before falling unconscious and then 30 seconds before death. To be safe it is best to pick up a meter that can pick the gas up.

Anything Else

On top of both of these just always make sure you have everything a holiday home needs to be safe. Overseas property insurance will help you out but it will not prevent death from occurring. If it is a cottage you own then look into holiday cottages insurance.
