Why fire risk in the New Forest is what it is

The New Forest is dominated by the National Park and a large holiday-let economy — independent letting agencies have managed New Forest holiday cottages since the 1970s, and the area is thick with B&Bs, guest houses and short-term rentals alongside ordinary homes and businesses. Shops, hospitality, guest houses, B&Bs and self-catering holiday lets run as a business are all non-domestic premises under the Fire Safety Order and need a fire risk assessment, assessed to PAS 79-1:2020.
