LV= has announced the launch of a new caravan insurance package with equipment being a main focal point of the cover.
The insurer stated that one of the key elements is that accessories and awnings are protected as standard, meaning customers are insured on items such as beds, generators and bottled gas equipment.
Policyholders will be able to benefit from cover for accidental damages or theft of the tourer anywhere in the United Kingdom, as well as up to 60 days in Europe.
The latter is a significant bonus for those that choose to take camping holidays in the likes of France and Spain.
LV= data states that the average claim is £1,500 meaning that owners who are not fully covered could be hit with costly fees.
Selwyn Fernandes, managing director of LV= Insurance, said: “We are always looking for areas that we can expand our product range into and as we already had the caravan add-on available, the launch of this standalone caravan policy was the next step for us.”
