Yes, in general visitor permissions you can allow all. This will allow anyone to visit your house (either from guild roster, friends page, or travel to player). Or you can use guild permissions which allow people from a particular guild to visit, or you can set up a custom list of visitors who are allowed.

In order for people to easily visit your home, make it your Primary Residence (like the permissions I mentioned in the last paragraph, this is all done in the settings tab of the housing editor) - if anyone on your friends list or in a guild with you wants to visit your home they can select "Visit Primary Residence" from the friends page or the guild roster page.

In addition, if you are on PC, there is an addon called "Port To Friends House" which allows people to port to one anothers' homes even if they aren't set as primary residence, and you can set up a favourites list and hotkey them. It will also allow you to port to peoples' houses if they are not on your friends list or in a guild with you (depending on the permissions they have given you for their homes). Very useful addon

EDIT: Sorry for the edits, just rephrasing some stuff to make it clearer what I meant, and correcting a couple of typos.

Awesome! Thanks all

Also, people can only travel to the home you designate as Primary when your not logged in or at the house.

Technically true, though as @OmniDo pointed out, there is an addon which will let you visit the other homes of friends, and strange guildmates.

That said, unless you explicitly give someone decorator permissions, all they can do is wander around, and flick the lights on and off. Oh, and use the crafting stations.

This sounds like the sort of addon that should not be allowed. It doesn't simply offer a Quality of Life Improvement, but totally changes the basis on which housing is held for those players who have the option of using addons and choose to do so. As such, it goes too far in my view.

I'm all in favour of players being able to visit any of another player's houses rather than just their primary residence, but it should be through a change in the base game and not through an addon that is not available to all players.

We're now in a position where both housing and trading have completely different viability if addons are used, with very diminished viability if they are not used or are simply not available to be used because of the platform on which the game is played by two-thirds of the playerbase. That is completely unacceptable in my view and should be addressed by ZOS by enhancements to the base game as well as tightening up the basis on which addons can be applied.

I agree.

Although, it is a nice idea to use for a Guild Hall.

Why would you want strangers in your house..... I don't even want family members to visit me!!!

You can set it either way. To be clear, you can set your homes so that no one can visit without you being there, or so that only certain users can drop by at will.

Worth remembering that each house can have individual permissions set. If you don't want someone swinging by, you can set it so that the house you're in doesn't have an approved guest list.
