For me the biggest headache is a scenario of having to return to the house if there is major flooding.
There is one major river between secondary residence and the house. This is fairly shallow but very wide and very fast flowing. The only way across it is by bridge or by raft/kayak.
I have 7 alternate routes that I can take, each using different crossing points, but each bridge is a potentially major pinch point.
Distance from bridges to the house vary from 5 to 20 miles. I have a pre-decided to dump the car and proceed across any of these bridges on foot if need be.
Once across, its all uphill and the river then becomes a useful deterrent to anyone thinking of running to the hills in my direction:-)
