Tent Insurance - why you should think about it

Just 11% of campers who responded to our recent camping survey take out insurance to protect themselves should anything go wrong during their camping holiday.


With a whopping 89% of respondents camping uninsured, the majority of these campers said that organising camping insurance had never even crossed their minds.

So why is this?

While it may be true that camping equipment these days is relatively cheap and fairly inexpensive to replace, what about the inconvenience that this could cause you should anything happen to these items?

Don’t let your holiday be spoilt

Imagine the scene; you come home from a great day out to discover that all is not well with your tent or your equipment.

Without Tent Insurance, you may find yourself having to go straight home, or spend the night in a local B&B at your own expense. Add to this the inconvenience of finding money to replace your camping equipment and tent, not to mention a group of extremely unhappy campers, you have a recipe for a holiday full of memories for all the wrong reasons!

For a smarter way to enjoy your holiday, whatever the eventuality, Tent Insurance can really make a difference when you need it most, and our insurance partners Club Care, offers camping insurance cover so that you can fully relax and enjoy your camping trip

Club Care’s tent insurance benefits include:

  • Cover for loss or damage caused by accidental damage, fire, theft, storm, flood or malicious damage to your tent, providing a replacement item(s) of comparable material, quality and cost of the original item(s). (Also including some articles stored inside the tent).
  • Up to £100 per night for alternative accommodation, to a maximum of £500
  • Up to £5M public liability cover
  • European use cover for up to 240 days

    Is my tent and camping equipment covered by my home insurance policy?
    It’s unlikely, although your tent and equipment may be covered whilst they are at home. Once you’re on site, however, you may find that the amount covered is limited, plus your excess can be much higher.

    Your home insurance policy will not cover your liability to third parties: for example, if your tent blows away on a site and hits a caravan, motorhome or, worse still, a person.

    Do I really need Tent Camping Insurance?
    Tent Camping Insurance is not a legal requirement in the UK; however we would strongly recommend that you insure your tent and camping equipment. You never know when the unexpected may happen.

    Remember, our Tent Camping Insurance covers you for more than just the tent itself. Your contents and equipment are also covered against theft, fire and accidental damage.
