Stay at a Bed & Breakfast. You can ask the operator
all kinds of questions over breakfast. Most operators will be happy to help you. Don't
just visit, stay overnight. That way the operators are compensated for the time they will
spend with you.
Talk to your municipality. Rules vary
from place to place. Some municipalities are very open and easy to work with, while others
will have very strict regulations that you need to know about well in advance.
Talk to your local fire department and
health authority to see if there are any conditions you need to meet.
Take a look at the ABBA inspection criteria. Ensure that your existing house or new
project complies. The criteria will help you operate a safe and inviting B&B.
Talk to an ABBA representative. See
our Contacts page.
Check to see if any existing B&Bs
are for sale. Taking over an existing business can be a lot easier, since you generally
get a well established business with a regular clientele.
Become an ABBA member. We look
forward to welcoming you!
