How Insurance Has Helped Glamping Sites

Case Study: Fire Damage from a Wood-Burner

Situation: A guest incorrectly used a wood-burning stove, causing a fire in a glamping pod.

Impact: The pod was badly damaged and could not be used for the rest of the season.

Resolution: Glamping Site Insurance arranged by Insure24 covered repairs and loss of income from cancelled bookings, helping the business recover.

Case Study: Storm Damage to Safari Tents

Situation: High winds damaged several safari tents and their furnishings.

Impact: Units had to be closed for repairs during peak season.

Resolution: Property and business interruption cover helped fund replacement structures and contributed towards lost booking income.

Case Study: Guest Injury on Wet Steps

Situation: A guest slipped on wet wooden steps leading to a pod.

Impact: A liability claim was lodged against the glamping site owner.

Resolution: Public liability cover responded to legal and compensation costs, and risk improvements were made to the steps and handrails.

Case Study: Theft from a Remote Glamping Site

Situation: During a quiet midweek period, thieves stole outdoor furniture and equipment.

Impact: The site faced replacement costs and disruption to upcoming stays.

Resolution: Contents cover assisted with the cost of replacements, and the insurer supported improved security measures.
