Is your listed holiday home properly protected?
A holiday home can be a profitable investment with a high return, especially if it’s located in one of the UK’s holiday hotspots like Devon, Cornwall, or the Lake District. Managed properly, it can deliver year-round revenue and a steady income.
However, there is plenty to think about before you rent your home out to paying guests or buy a listed property as your own private holiday home. That can include finding suitable insurance, which can be especially important if you have a Grade II listed property.
What type of listed buildings are covered?
We cover a range of cottages and houses with our listed building insurance cover, including private dwellings granted Grade II or Grade II* status. In Scotland, we can cover buildings granted B and C status.
Listed buildings include those classified as standard construction, as well as:
- Standard construction
- Wattle and daub
- Lathe and plaster
- Timber framed
- Cob
What benefits are included in insurance for Grade II listed buildings?
As well as providing you with cover for the building itself, our holiday home policies can include:
Policy limits and exclusions may apply, please see the policy wording for full terms and conditions.
What if it’s not rented out all-year-round?
We understand that this is a holiday home and there may be times when the property is left empty for a longer period. There are generally certain provisions for insurance for Grade II listed holiday homes that are not occupied all-year-round.
One provision may be that your holiday home does have to be occupied at least once during the year, and be in a habitable state and furnished to qualify as a holiday home. If you have any about our insurance requirements regarding occupancy, please don’t hesitate to call our team.
Is there any type of listed holiday home you don’t insure?
We do not offer cover for Grade I and Grade A listed properties or thatched properties.
