Holiday Home Insurance

There’s nothing more relaxing than a holiday. It’s a time to put your feet up and unwind. For some people, that might mean taking off to their own holiday home. While this is a great asset to have it can also bring its own headaches, proper insurance can offer peace of mind wherever you find yourself.

Do I Need Holiday Home Insurance?

UK holiday home insurance isn’t a legal requirement. While mortgage providers might insist you get buildings insurance, you don’t need to take out holiday let insurance. However, it’s something you should definitely consider. While regular building and contents insurance will cover certain aspects of your holiday home, it won’t cover everything. For example, holiday let insurance can provide public liability cover. This means if a guest was to injure themselves at your property, you are legally protected.
