Tailored insurance for owners and operators

We provide specialist business insurance for holiday parks and residential parks, helping park owners protect their facilities, business operations, and reputation.

One of the principal challenges you may face as a park operator is protecting yourself and your facilities from financial or reputational damage.

Whether you run a holiday caravan, chalet and or lodge park, or a residential mobile home park, it is important to secure business insurance that is suitable for your park, and the guests and homeowners you serve.

Gallagher helps protect over 1,000 holiday and residential parks across the UK, ranging from the some of the largest groups in the UK to family owned and operated businesses. Using knowledge gained by working closely with the park industry, we are able to provide our clients with appropriate covers, and develop bespoke policy wordings that have been written specifically for holiday and residential parks within the UK and Northern Ireland.

Partnering with an insurance broker that specialises in your industry can help you find appropriate cover at an acceptable premium, as well as assisting with your overall risk management programme. We have outlined the available covers below, which can be combined to create an insurance policy appropriate/tailored for your business.

Buildings

As well as your park’s buildings, cover can extend to cover the parks infrastructure including concrete bases, driveways, car parks, swimming pools, artificial playing surfaces, walls, gates and fences, signs, blinds and underground services. If you insure your underground services, the policy extends to cover the costs of tracing the leak, plus the cost of accessing it, including any necessary excavation, and making good the damage caused as a result, up to a maximum of £10,000 on any one claim. Includes accidental damage cover as standard.

Contents

Covers the contents of the commercial buildings, including park machines, machinery, plant, and all other contents normally associated with the business, belonging to you or for which you are responsible. Includes accidental damage cover as standard.

Business Interruption

In the event that your park is unable to operate, we can cover you for loss of trading profit. This can include cover for death, injury of the park owner, or any key members of staff.

Liabilities

Combines cover for public liability, product and employers’ liability into one convenient package.

Loss of Licence

We can provide cover for the depreciation in value if your licence is forfeited or revoked by the licencing authority and you are unable to sell excisable liquors.

Personal Accident

Choose from three levels of personal accident cover, allowing you to choose the policy most suitable for you and your business.

Cyber insurance is designed to protect you against the financial consequences of first-party and third-party losses, and can provide specialist support when you need it most.

Engineering

Legal Expenses

Commercial legal expenses insurance provides you with access to legal advice, along with insurance cover for legal costs and expenses should you experience one of the legal problems covered by the policy in relation to your business activities, including customer and employee disputes.

Management Liability

Directors’ and Officers’ (D&O) liability insurance provides protection for the directors and officers (including senior managers) of a company for claims made against them personally for alleged wrongful acts in their position. It can also be extended to cover the entity itself.

Holiday home owner schemes

As a park owner, it is important for you to know that all of your customer-own units are protected with adequate holiday home insurance.

We have developed a policy specifically designed for park owners to promote to individuals who own units on their park, such as static caravans, chalets or holiday lodges. Our 5 star expert rated holiday home owner policy provides comprehensive cover, efficient claims management support, and reassurance to your individual owners.

A choice of three insurance distribution models

We offer three ways to distribute insurance to customers owning park homes on your park. You may prefer a hands-on approach, or perhaps you would rather let us do the legwork to give you more time focusing on the day-to-day running of your park. Simply select the option that suits your business.
