With the ‘staycation’ becoming de rigeur over the past couple of years, it is not a surprise to learn that there are more static caravans being bought then ever. Due to the financial challenges we have been facing this past couple of years, many people are skipping the expensive foreign holidays and staying in the UK instead. If you are one of these people, or thinking of becoming one then static caravan insurance is more important than ever.
Skipping the foreign holidays means caravans are getting more use, as people tend to take several trips away, rather than just the one big foreign holiday. And having made the investment in a caravan, the subsequent outlays are greatly reduced. So you can pop off at very short notice, what a great thing to be able to do.
There is also the option of renting out your static caravan when you are not using it. Given the number of people looking for accommodation, filling the caravan in the holiday season should not be too difficult, and will be a great source of additional income. This will also mean that the caravan in not left unattended as much, which is good news, but it is still very important that suitable caravan insurance is in place.
Of course if the caravan is occupied a lot more then there is a lot more chance of damage occurring, so you will need to ensure that the insurance is comprehensive enough to cover this. This will obviously mean added cost to your premiums, but the returns more than outweigh this. And you also get the benefit of lots of cheap holidays. All in all investing in a static caravan can be an excellent experience, and a fruitful one, but you need to make sure you have the right caravan insurance if you want real peace of mind.
