Yes, I wasn't thinking about clients visiting, in that case public liability insurance would be needed. I don't think working from home counts as using the property as a business, if it did then the council (planning permission business rates and if applicable, your mortgage company will need to know), but otherwise wouldn't your normal building and contents insurance cover what is needed?
