Here are our top three reasons why:<\/p>\n<h3>1) Maintenance and Management<\/h3>\n<p>Having a list of all items in your holiday home helps you identify any items that might be missing, broken, or need repairs. This is crucial for guest satisfaction and the smooth operation of your holiday let.<\/p>\n<h3>2) Financial and legal benefits<\/h3>\n<p>Keeping an updated inventory checklist can be crucial for insurance claims should the worst happen (natural disaster, fire, theft, etc). It will also help you when budgeting for replacements and upgrades as items wear over time.<\/p>\n<h3>3) Enhances your guests&#8217; experience<\/h3>\n<p>Your holiday home inventory list can help you provide the best possible experience for your guests. It ensures that you have everything in order and don\u2019t forget those little extras and thoughtful additions that go a long way in making guests feel welcome. It is omissions in inventory and failure of equipment that often leave guests frustrated and unsatisfied with a property.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2 id=\"2\"><strong>Holiday let kitchen inventory checklist<\/strong><\/h2>\n<div id=\"attachment_35781\" style=\"width: 650px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.coastandcountry.co.uk\/cottage\/Devon-Dartmouth\/Butterwell-Barn-995294.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-35781\" class=\"size-full wp-image-35781\" src=\"https:\/\/www.coastandcountry.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2021\/11\/Butterwell-Barn-Dartmouth-Kitchen.jpg\" alt=\"The kitchen at Butterwell Barn, Dartmouth\" width=\"640\" height=\"427\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-35781\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.coastandcountry.co.uk\/cottage\/Devon-Dartmouth\/Butterwell-Barn-995294.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Butterwell Barn, Dartmouth<\/a><\/p><\/div>\n<p>The kitchen is often known as the heart of the home. It\u2019s often the busiest room in a holiday property, so furnishings and equipment must be well thought out and functional. Most guests like to divide their time between eating out and staying in, so it\u2019s important to fill a kitchen with everything they may need to whip up a culinary storm.<\/p>\n<h3>Large appliances<\/h3>\n<p>Every kitchen in a self-catering property needs the essentials &#8211; cooker, hob, fridge and freezer. But having additional items can make life that much easier. Providing appliances like a dishwasher, washing machine, and tumble dryer will always be well received.<\/p>\n<p>To ensure your guests are safe during their stay, it\u2019s important to make sure all electrical appliances are PAT tested, and that all your gas appliances are regularly serviced. For more information on this and other safety regulations, read our guide on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.coastandcountry.co.uk\/blog\/holiday-let-rules-and-regulations\" rel=\"noopener\">holiday let rules and regulations<\/a>. This covers everything from fire safety assessments to health and safety requirements for holiday lets.<\/p>\n<h3>Small appliances<\/h3>\n<p>Like large appliances, most of these are essential and can make your guests\u2019 stay a bit more luxurious. Must-haves include a toaster, a kettle, and a microwave. Providing extras like a coffee machine, weighing scales, milk frother, juicer, blender, and even a smart speaker go a long way in making a positive impression.<\/p>\n<h3>Dinnerware<\/h3>\n<p>The amount you require will depend on how many guests your holiday home can accommodate. As a general rule of thumb, it\u2019s best not to provide expensive crockery or glassware. Something practical, easily replaceable and with plenty of spares is generally the best policy. At Coast &amp; Country Cottages, we recommend plain white crockery because it looks good and is easy to replace.<\/p>\n<h3>Pots and pans<\/h3>\n<p>Having good quality pots and pans with fitted lids is always recommended. Durable, thick-bottomed steel cookware is easy to clean and cannot be faulted. Frying pans should be non-stick and will need to be replaced more regularly than other pans since they\u2019re more frequently used. Don\u2019t forget to include non-stick utensils to use with the frying pan.<\/p>\n<h3>Pantry Provisions<\/h3>\n<p>Useful items such as salt, pepper, tea bags, coffee, sugar, a pint of milk, dishwasher tabs, washing powder, washing up liquid, bin bags and spare light bulbs are standard provisions and should be in your property for the start of each let. Other non-food cooking items such as silver foil and cling film are helpful, but not essential.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-31756\" src=\"https:\/\/www.coastandcountry.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2021\/11\/holiday-let-inventory-checklist-kitchen.jpg\" alt=\"holiday let inventory checklist kitchen\" width=\"640\" height=\"534\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-31757\" src=\"https:\/\/www.coastandcountry.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2021\/11\/holiday-let-inventory-checklist-cleaning-equipment.jpg\" alt=\"holiday let inventory checklist cleaning equipment\" width=\"640\" height=\"208\" \/><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2 id=\"3\">Bathroom inventory list for holiday lets<\/h2>\n<div id=\"attachment_35782\" style=\"width: 650px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.coastandcountry.co.uk\/cottage\/Devon-Dartmouth\/Quayside-Dart-Marina-997778.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-35782\" class=\"size-full wp-image-35782\" src=\"https:\/\/www.coastandcountry.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2021\/11\/Quayside-Dart-Marina-Bathroom.jpg\" alt=\"The bathroom at Quayside, Dart Marina\" width=\"640\" height=\"427\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-35782\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.coastandcountry.co.uk\/cottage\/Devon-Dartmouth\/Quayside-Dart-Marina-997778.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Quayside, Dart Marina, Dartmouth<\/a><\/p><\/div>\n<p>When stocking the bathroom, try to think of the things you would use. Make sure there\u2019s enough of each item for each guest that will be staying in your property. You should at least provide the basics such as hand soap and toilet rolls.<\/p>\n<p>Other added extras you could provide include hand towels, bath towels, bath mats, and hand cloths. If providing bath mats, make sure they are non-slip to avoid any accidents. If providing towels, each guest will need their own bath and hand towels that are easy to launder and bleach if necessary.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-31758\" src=\"https:\/\/www.coastandcountry.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2021\/11\/holiday-let-inventory-checklist-bathrooms.jpg\" alt=\"holiday let inventory checklist bathrooms\" width=\"640\" height=\"141\" \/><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2 id=\"4\">Essentials for your holiday let&#8217;s living area<\/h2>\n<div id=\"attachment_35783\" style=\"width: 650px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.coastandcountry.co.uk\/cottage\/Devon-Salcombe\/Villa-8-Estura-995899.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-35783\" class=\"size-full wp-image-35783\" src=\"https:\/\/www.coastandcountry.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/6\/2021\/11\/Villa-8-Estura-Living-Room.jpg\" alt=\"The living room at Villa 8, Estura, Salcombe\" width=\"640\" height=\"427\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-35783\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.coastandcountry.co.uk\/cottage\/Devon-Salcombe\/Villa-8-Estura-995899.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Villa 8, Estura, Salcombe<\/a><\/p><\/div>\n<p>Just like the kitchen, the living area is often the most used room in your property. It\u2019s a place for guests to relax and socialise, so you\u2019ll want to make sure there\u2019s enough space for everyone, be it with dining chairs or a sofa.<\/p>\n<p>Ensure that the entertainment centre is functional and that your living area is stocked with a few rainy-day activities. Remember to include a TV, with streaming services if possible, or a DVD player and a selection of family friendly movies. Some other items to include are board games, cards, some books to read, and comfy sofas. You might also consider coasters to protect tables and furniture.<\/p>\n<p>You should definitely consider having WiFi &#8211; <strong>27% of guests<\/strong> consider good Wi-Fi or technology when booking a property.
