Peter Best Touring Caravan FAQs
Touring caravan insurance typically covers accidental damage, fire, theft and third party liability while the caravan is being towed, stored or pitched. Policies are designed to reflect movement between locations and periods of storage. Cover may also extend to contents inside the caravan, subject to limits.
Peter Best Insurance Services can arrange touring caravan insurance that reflects how and where the caravan is used.
Touring caravan insurance is suited to owners who tow their caravan to different locations for holidays or leisure use. This includes trips to campsites, touring parks or seasonal travel within the UK or abroad. Insurers assess usage patterns, storage and travel frequency.
Peter Best Insurance Services can help match cover to different touring habits.
A wide range of touring caravans can be insured, from standard single axle and twin axle models through to more specialist caravan types. Insurers will typically consider factors such as the caravan’s age, value, construction, specification, and overall condition when assessing eligibility for cover.
Security features and storage arrangements may also influence acceptance, policy terms, and the premium offered.
Peter Best Insurance can provide cover for a broad range of touring caravans, including fifth wheelers, Bedford Bambi caravans, folding campers, folding caravans, micro caravans, and trailer tents, subject to insurer underwriting criteria and the information provided when applying.
Touring caravan insurance can include cover while the caravan is being towed, although this depends on the policy wording. Protection may apply for damage caused during transit, subject to conditions. The towing vehicle must be insured separately. It is important to ensure both vehicle and caravan are covered appropriately for travel.
Policies may include cover for contents such as furnishings, appliances and personal belongings kept inside the caravan. Limits usually apply, and higher value items may need to be declared separately. The level of contents protection depends on the insurer and policy selected.
Breakdown cover is not always included as standard and may depend on the policy or insurer. Where included, it can provide assistance if the towing vehicle or caravan cannot continue due to mechanical issues.
Peter Best Insurance Services does not currently offer breakdown cover as an enhancement to touring caravan cover.
Touring caravan insurance can sometimes include cover for travel outside the UK, depending on the policy and destination. Insurers may apply limits on duration or specify which countries are included.
Peter Best Insurance Services can arrange policies that include European travel where needed.
Premiums are based on factors such as the caravan’s value, age, storage location and how often it is used. Security features and claims history may also influence pricing. Insurers assess the overall risk before confirming a premium.
Touring caravans should be stored in a secure location when not in use, such as a locked driveway, private land, or a recognised caravan storage facility. Insurers often take storage arrangements into account when assessing risk, as secure storage can help reduce the likelihood of theft, vandalism, or accidental damage.
Many insurers recognise CaSSOA (Caravan Storage Site Owners’ Association) approved storage sites. CaSSOA rates registered storage facilities according to their security standards, with ratings ranging from Bronze and Silver through to Gold and Platinum. Storing a caravan at a higher-rated CaSSOA site may be viewed favourably by insurers.
When arranging cover, it is important to provide accurate details about where the caravan is normally stored so that the policy reflects the correct level of risk and protection.
Touring caravan insurance is essential for owners who regularly travel with their caravan, as it provides protection both on the road and while parked. The policy should reflect how the caravan is used and stored. Peter Best Insurance Services can arrange cover that aligns with touring usage and travel requirements.
