The
Torbay Lodge Guest House now fully complies with The Fire (Scotland)
Act 2005 as amended and the fire safety (Scotland) Regulations
2006.
All serviced accommodation in Scotland must now comply with this
new legislation a move which is causing great concern to many
local and national bed and breakfasts, guest houses and hotels (see
article)

and Rescue Service to discuss fire safety arrangements to comply
with the above act.
