Specialist caravan insurance

No, you're not legally required to insure your caravan. However, there is always the risk of accidental damage and recent reports indicate an increase in caravan thefts, despite improved security features. So, ensuring you have the right cover in place is important.

A touring caravan is a separate mobile home on wheels, that is designed to be lightweight so it can be towed by vehicles. Caravans contain no motor engine or driveshaft, so therefore are not a functional vehicle. Touring caravans come in all shapes and sizes, and usually contain a small kitchenette and sleeping quarters for anywhere between two, four plus people. Most modern caravans will have built in heating, a shower, toilet and working appliances, but these must be connected to the mains or gas in order to work.

The towing capacity for your vehicle, can be found on your vehicles VIN Plate (Vehicle Identification Number Plate) which is either stamped into the chassis, found in the engine bay, bottom of the windscreen or on the inside trim of the driver or passengers’ door.
