Guest House Insurance

Running a small hotel or guest house usually means sharing your home with guests and providing the personal touch that a larger Hotel Insurance policy does not offer.

What is Guest House Insurance?

Running a small hotel or guest house usually means sharing your home with guests and providing the personal touch that a larger hotel insurance policy does not offer. However, you will need to consider whether you have the right insurance cover in place. We often find that people think their business activities are covered under their home policies such as Household as they are run from home, which is not the case. 

Our specialist team have over 15 years’ experience and pride themselves on building long lasting relationships with clients.
