A guide to fire risk assessments for
Holiday Accomodation
As a holiday Property owner, it’s your responsibility to recognise, remove or reduce fire risks at your accommodation and to ensure your property is safe for guests and visitors.
​
​If you’re new to holiday letting and haven’t already completed a fire risk assessment it can be difficult to know where to start. We can guide you to identify fire risks and the protection measures you should put in place to reduce fire risks and keep your guests and staff safe.
Is a holiday Property fire risk assessment a legal requirement?
​
As a holiday let owner or responsible person, you have a duty to comply with the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety Order) 2005. The law requires you to undertake a written fire risk assessment to identify potential fire risks, act on the findings and ensure that fire precautions comply with legislation. In England and Wales from 1 October 2023 the rules are changing, are statutory and must be followed, so it’s essential that you conform.
