If you are privately letting your holiday home – The management of the hot tub is the Holiday Home Owners responsibility. In addition to the below guidelines being implemented, you must have a clear set of rules advising your guests displayed at the hot tub and a suitable Risk Assessment. If you are using the Away Resorts managed letting scheme, we will manage this for the dates it is being sublet. We ask that your hot tub is empty the day before it is due to go on to the sublet period.
