As a second homeowner, you will already know the importance of protecting your property wherever it is located. To ensure you are covered if the unexpected happens, choosing the right property insurance is essential.
Holiday let insurance is designed to protect your second home both inside and out and ensures your property is covered for unoccupied periods and while guests are staying.
Do I need holiday home insurance?
If you have a holiday home, standard insurance policies will typically not cover properties that are unoccupied for more than 30 days at a time. Holiday home insurance is also tailored to the type of let and property you own.
Ordinary insurance is not enough to ensure your holiday let is covered. So choosing a specialised holiday let insurance policy is vital to protect it from risks such as burglary and accidental damage. There are many other reasons you need to choose the right insurance product for your holiday home, including:
Cost-effective protection
While second home insurance and any additional cover options may increase the premium for protection, it is a cost-effective investment in the long term. The cost of property damage or any incidentals that occur while the property is unoccupied or let can run into the thousands, which may be a significant financial outlay to rectify. With the right short term let insurance policy, you have peace of mind that the building and contents are covered. A comprehensive policy will also ensure that you are back to normal as quickly as possible and welcoming paying guests again.
What does holiday let insurance cover?
A holiday let home insurance policy from Intasure can be tailored to your cover requirements. As well as the all important building and contents cover, there are additional types of cover for extra peace of mind.

Accidents happen, and when you have guests staying in your second home, they may not always be as considerate as they would in their own home.
