Specialist holiday home insurance for listed properties in the UK

Whether your holiday home is a Grade I or II Listed Building in England or Wales, or a Grade A or B Listed Property in Scotland, we can provide you with listed holiday home insurance cover. Equally, if your heritage holiday home is in a conservation area, our policy extensions will be important to you. As a listed holiday homeowner, it pays to discuss your insurance with an adviser who understands heritage properties.

It is vital your insurance is underwritten by a specialist insurer who understands that your property is of special architectural or historic interest. For added peace of mind our listed holiday home cover is underwritten by Ecclesiastical, who are heritage insurance specialists.

In the event of damage to your listed holiday home, you will need to make sure your rebuilding sums insured are sufficient to reinstate your home. You may also need to comply with the local authority conditions made under the Planning (Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas) Act 1990 and amending legislation (or equivalent legislation in Scotland and Northern Ireland).

Archaeological Costs

Reinstating your listed property to its former glory after an insurance claim, such as a fire, can be a complicated process and the additional fees required to complete archaeological rescue work is expensive.  You’ll have the support and understanding of a specialist heritage insurer who understands the requirements placed on you by local authorities.

As the guardian of a listed building you will understand that compromising on cover to save money when insuring your listed holiday home is not an option. For full details of our holiday home insurance policy, including a summary of cover, please see holiday home insurance.

Loss of rental income

Restoring a listed building will often take longer than a standard holiday home following a claim, not least due to sourcing specialist materials and skilled craftsman meaning the potential loss of income can be even greater. You will want the confidence that your insurance policy will cover your lost bookings.
