We want to open a B&B using our house.

Hi,
we want to start a bed and breakfast business in the house that we live in. Do you have any advice? Is this what you do?

I would very much appreciate a few words of advice,

Dinah

The laws regarding this sort of rental are very complicated. I would strongly reccommend you get legal advice from more than one source and talk to the tourist board before you comit money to converting your home

Hi we have just sold a B&B on mainland Spain which we built from scratch. It took us 2 years to get permission to build and we started applying for our opening and Tourism licences and building licence at the same time. It is not possible to rent our part of your house for B&B anymore, disability regs, hygiene, etc etc.lso you would have to pay autonomo every month...the fines are large if you get it wrong and in Spain ignorance is no defence. A My advice would be to buy a place that already has all permissions.
