Range Bully

Free range kids and our swimming pool?
Our 6 year old does not "play out". As in he does not go out on the streets to play with the other kids who do that. Trouble is they knock the door now and again. We say no (I don't want him playing with those kids anyway as their games sometimes involve fighting and bullying each other) and they go away amicably.
Trouble is that we have a swimming pool and have not used it before. Once we do I envision the local free range kids wanting to come round and play in it. Our son doesn't play with them, but he goes to school with a few of them and knows them.
Whats the best way to handle this? We live in a small village community and I don't want to cause trouble -but I don't want our garden full of unsupervised kids.

Yes, but they're NOT his friends. They're just roaming free. Just because they are about doesn't mean they have to be his friends.
I would call your Home owners insurance agent. Have him send you "requirements" for insuring a home with a pool. Here in the States, pools must have fences around them, lockable gates, and in some cases lockable pool covers.
If you are not around enough to safely supervise children, you should be worried that these children (particularly as they get older) will "visit" your pool uninvited and when you are gone. If that happens, and one is injured or killed, you could be sued out of house and home.
When I lived in Massachusetts, I actually was mandated by my insurance company to have a "certified lifeguard present" when there were more than four (non family members) people in our pool.
The pool finally became to expensive for my budget, and I traded houses for one with no pool.
