We now have a fence all around the swimming pool. As from the 1st January this year we would have been liable for a 45,000 Euros fine if we had failed to install either an alarm system, a sturdy roll-up cover for when the pool is not in use, or a fence. All options need to comply with an approved standard.
After 9 years living in France, near Poitiers in the heart of the countryside, we've moved back to England. We are in Margate, within half a mile of the sea, in a small development of new houses...........David Sefton
