Specialist insurance for Holiday Park and Residential Park Owners.
At Noble Insurance Brokers, we understand that operating a holiday or residential park comes with a unique set of risks. Whether you manage a boutique glamping site, a sprawling touring park, or a residential home community, your insurance needs to be as diverse as your facilities.
Solutions for your business
We offer specialist business insurance for holiday parks and residential parks. Every park is different so we work with you to understand your business to make recommendations that are specific to your needs.
Given the seasonal nature of many of our clients' businesses, an incident that impacts high season can have a disproportionate impact on a park's finances. Having the right insurance in place is vital, but so too is having an advisor who understands the urgency of getting critical services up and running as fast as possible.
'No Admin' solutions for your unit owners' insurance
Through our Noble Caravan & Leisure brand, we offer our own range of products specially designed for the differing property types and the needs of their owners. We know that our park owners need to ensure that the units on their sites are properly insured. This usually means you are administering insurance policies, in the past this was fairly simple but increasing regulation is increasing admin workloads - we offer you an opportunity to remove your admin costs whilst still receiving commission.
Liability Risks
This is often the most significant area of exposure due to the high volume of owners, guests, staff, and contractors. Too often insurance discussions are focused on physical assets, of course this is very important but the potential size of liability claims means ensuring that you are correctly covered is critical to protecting your business.
Public Liability - The most common claims arise from "slips, trips, and falls." Uneven paving, poorly lit walkways, or wet floors in communal shower blocks can lead to expensive injury claims. If your park has a swimming pool, playground, bar, or gym, the risk of claims increases. You could be liable for injuries caused by defective equipment or inadequate supervision (e.g., lack of lifeguards or signage).
Employers’ Liability - As managing a site involves a significant proportion of manual work, the risks of injury to staff are higher than average. Risks include injuries to groundskeepers using machinery or kitchen staff in on-site cafes.
Product Liability - This covers any food or goods you supply to customers and covers risks such as food poisoning.
Legionella - Improperly maintained water systems (hot tubs, communal showers) can lead to Legionnaire’s disease outbreaks, leading to significant claims if customers, contractors or staff become ill as a result.
Property & Infrastructure Risks
Due to the diverse nature of structure types and activities on many parks, using a specialist broker who understands the needs of park owners is essential.
Things like utility infrastructure is often overlooked as they are not front of mind when thinking about your insurance e.g damage to underground water pipes or roads, bridges, fences and gates, etc., which can be very expensive to restore following an incident.

Business Interruption Risks
This protects your "bottom line" when you are forced to stop trading. Property can be repaired or replaced but the loss of income that results from being out of action for an extended period could have a major impact on your business.
Business interruption insurance covers your loss of income following a loss to keep your business going while the property is repaired. When buying this cover it is important to consider how long it takes to rebuild, repair or replace units. For example a major storm may affect multiple sites may restrict the availability of replacement units or specialist repairers.
Emerging Risks
Cyber Risk - If you take online bookings or store guest data, you are a target for ransomware and data breaches. A system shutdown during peak booking season can be catastrophic.
Environmental Liability - Accidental leaks from large heating oil tanks or sewage treatment plants on-site can lead to massive fines and cleanup costs from environmental regulators.
