Static caravan insurance - a guide

Static caravan insurance protects you against loss or damage to your caravan and its contents, typically it covers such things as fire, flood, storm, theft and subsidence. 

Our Bourne Leisure Caravan and Lodges arranged insurance provided by Aviva offers reassurance and cover for various scenarios. For full details, speak to a member of our caravan ownership team at your chosen holiday park.

The price of your static caravan insurance will vary depending on factors such as the market value of your caravan, its age and extras such as decking, veranda and contents. At Haven, our caravan insurance is based on size.

Payment options can be discussed with Bourne Leisure Owner Services on 0333 202 5300.

Here’s the list of things that are not covered by our Haven insurance plan:

• Sheds and similar structures that don’t form an integral part of your caravan 

• Damage from wear and tear, electrical and mechanical breakdown, or gradual deterioration

• Wet or dry rot

• Storm damage to fences, gates, hedges, awnings or toilet tents

• Loss or damage if your caravan is overturned by storm or flood – unless it was fixed to
  the ground at all four corners of the chassis by suitable anchors     

• Certain losses or damage (eg, theft or malicious damage) caused by you

• Motorised vehicles, aircraft or watercraft

Optional cover:

• Theft of contents in the open

• Loss or damage caused by you

In addition to what is not covered listed above, there are also certain limitations that may apply to your policy, for example:

• The excess. This is the amount you must contribute or will be deducted from your settlement in the event that you should make a claim

• Monetary limits for certain covers

• Clauses that exclude certain types of loss or damage. For example: we won’t cover loss or damage from any escape of water if your caravan is not in use from 31 October to 1 March – unless the main stop cock has been turned off

Optional cover:

• We’ll cover against theft if the caravan has been broken into or out of, or entry has been forced

When does the cover start and end?

• Our Haven policy runs from the dates shown on your certificate until 30th April, then for 12 months thereafter unless you cancel the policy.
