CCTV at Large Group Holiday Houses: What You Need to Know
There may be CCTV at the holiday house you’ve chosen. Not all properties have this – if they do it will be listed on the Facts A-Z page. There is also a clause in the Terms & Conditions that are agreed to at the time of booking,
In most cases, CCTV will only cover the entrance to the property, including the driveway and parking area. Property owners choose to install security cameras to ensure guests’ safety and to deter intruders - this can be very useful in the low season when there may be short periods when the house is empty.
You can be assured that the CCTV is never monitored and after a maximum of 30 calendar days recordings are deleted forever. All privacy and data protection laws are complied with at all times for all properties with security cameras. In very rare cases, recorded images may be used strictly for lawful purposes only – for example, if there have been serious safety issues during a stay.
Remember that the CCTV at your large group holiday house isn’t there to watch you, it’s for the safety of guests and the property. The best thing is to forget about it and enjoy your stay.
