- Hard cover you can walk on is best, but expensive.
- Alarm is the cheapest and easiest to meet regs, but they can be flaky.
- barrier has to be a certain height and distance irrc. It's s probably the best on balance, but the worst looking and requires drilling holes in the paving to fix the poles. But they're not especially obnoxious.
He should already have one, and is liable if say a kid broke in and had an accident.
If budget is a consideration and you're after safety rather than regs I'd be tempted to get an alarm and barrier. (assuming it can be relatively freely accessed by your daughter)

He’s in the UK. So I’m trying to use other regulations to work out what’s best for us to do.
Given his initial starting point last year was a non life saving float vest and she’ll do it a couple of times before learning (lol) we’ve come a fair way to a suggested fence, where the poles are potentially removable.
I think a cover might be best mind, I don’t understand the dislike for the aesthetic of a fence. Although he has a decking area around the pool which might make a weight bearing cover difficult.
Also tricky as we don’t spend huge amounts of time there.

If anyone can point me in the right direction for French domestic swimming pool regulations, that would be super helpful.
My Dad has a pool and we are trying to work out the best way to child proof it, particularly for my sensory seeking autistic daughter, when not in use. I think they have a certain type of pool cover requirement from visiting friends a very long time ago!
