Owning a static caravan or holiday lodge means you’ve always got a home-from-home for those much-needed getaways. But many owners face the question: do you keep it just for family and friends to enjoy, or do you rent it out to holidaymakers to help cover the running costs?
Renting out your unit can provide a handy source of extra income, but it also comes with responsibilities. Some owners prefer to keep their retreat private, while others are happy to share it and make the most of its earning potential. Some holiday parks don’t permit owners to rent out their caravans.
That’s why in this month’s community poll we’re asking: Do you rent out your holiday caravan or lodge?
We’d love to hear from you. Take part in our latest poll…
Protecting your holiday caravan
If you do decide to let others stay in your unit, it’s important your static caravan insurance policy matches your needs. At Leisuredays, our holiday caravan and lodge insurance can be tailored with optional hire-out cover to protect you when renting for financial gain.
Benefits include:
-
Loss of rent cover if insured damage leaves your caravan or lodge uninhabitable.
-
Public liability cover, giving you peace of mind if a paying guest is injured or their property is damaged.
-
Protection for storm, flood, fire, theft, and accidental damage by guests.
-
Optional cover for legal expenses, emergency accommodation, and more.
So, whether you’re opening your doors to holidaymakers or keeping your retreat all to yourself, Leisuredays insurance is designed to protect your static caravan or lodge and your peace of mind.
(Note that hiring out benefits and are subject to terms and conditions, cover level and underwriting criteria).
