NuBeginnings Posted July 25, 2011 Share Posted July 25, 2011 Just a quick question how many of you out their have a swimming pool and do you allow your guests to use it. If you do allow your clients to use your pool must it be registered DDASS ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
betoulle Posted July 25, 2011 Share Posted July 25, 2011 in answer to the 3 questions:yesyesyessurely if you have paying guests they have to be allowed to use all your leisure facilities...it would be a very severe B&B owner who had a pool & didn't allow guests to use it - certainly wouldn't get any repeat custom which those of us who have been doing this now for 10 years/more will tell you is the secret to success...

Quillan Posted July 25, 2011 Share Posted July 25, 2011 This year we have the pool covered because it's too cold and nobody in their right mind would set foot in it which saves us a lot of time. In years when its been open I am the biggest user. I could probably count on two hands the amount of people who have used it over the years. This does of course depend on your location.

Théière Posted July 25, 2011 Share Posted July 25, 2011 We let our guests use it but as we only have one family we do not have to be registered. Multi occupancy does. Provision should be made when. Planning the pool to accommodate the regulations as it's hard and expensive afterwards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
betoulle Posted July 25, 2011 Share Posted July 25, 2011 we attract a lot of families during the summer & despite the cold & wet it does get used a lot - last week's family were in there every day - in wetsuits - & have reserved to return next year. So I guess it depends on your market, location & other facilities on offer. Like Quillan it is not used much outside of July & August, our tennis court is the main attraction which is available year round. A tip we were given by GdF - only declare it for the months of July & August, then you only have to pay for 2 inspections - the price goes up every year...
