What Type of Site Can Be Covered?

Site liability insurance can be suitable for many different types of leisure, holiday and visitor sites, depending on the exact use, facilities, access and features involved. This can include campsites, glamping sites, touring parks, holiday caravan parks, static caravan sites, leisure lodge parks, park home estates, mixed-use holiday sites and other leisure developments.

It can also apply to sites with access roads, car parks, footpaths, communal facilities, reception buildings, toilet blocks, shower blocks, shops, cafés, clubhouses, rivers, streams, ponds, lakes, trees, hot tubs and controlled fire areas, subject to the policy terms and underwriting acceptance.

Policy Ownership – What Name Should the Policy Be In and Why It Matters

The policy should be arranged in the correct legal name of the site owner, operator or organisation responsible for the site. This helps ensure that, in the event of a claim, the cover reflects the true ownership, operating responsibility and insurable interest.

Policies can be issued in individual names, joint names, company names, charity names, trust names, management company names and other recognised ownership or operating structures. Interested parties such as lenders, landlords, local authorities or landowners can also be noted where required.

If the site is leased, jointly operated, managed by a company or subject to a financial interest, getting the policy name and any interested parties correct from the outset helps avoid complications later.
