As an owner of a Country House, old, listed or “special” property, you will understand the importance of an insurer and a country house insurance policy that you can put your trust in to settle your claim when you need it.
No two country houses are the same and no two insurance policies or premiums will be the same either. Whether your property has been in your family for years or you’ve bought it as your dream home, there’s far more at stake than merely bricks and mortar. It may be your business or lifestyle choice and it’s vital that you take the correct measures to protect that.
At Greenfield Insurance Brokers, we have been arranging Country House Insurance since 1989 and have access to over 25 country house insurance products, all with insurers we have worked with for many years and have a tried and tested quality claims service.
Specialist Country House Insurance policy can include:
- Buildings and / or contents cover including accidental damage
- Cover for outbuildings and farm buildings
- Liability as Landowner and Property Owner
- Cover for fine art, antiques and items of a specialist nature
- Cover for jewellery and watches
- Worldwide all risks cover
- Your legal expenses for a range of issues
In addition, we are finding many of our clients use their country estates for alternative revenue streams such as farm land rentals, office space or wedding venues. We can tailor the insurance around this, making sure no area is overlooked.
“I want to review my Country House Insurance”
As an independent broker specialising in Country House Insurance we can offer you impartial, confidential and accurate advice on the insurance policy that would best suit your needs and budget.
In particular, we make sure you have the correct sum insured for buildings and contents. In our experience, the cost of rebuilding country houses often far exceeds the market value of the property due to the unique structure of the country house. It’s vital that your insurance adequately covers your rebuilding costs or you may find yourself having to foot some of the cost if a major disaster does strike.
In addition to this, you will also benefit from a dedicated and experienced account handler for the life of your policy, full claims handling service, we can even arrange a home visit if you wish to ensure we get the cover right and advise you of any risks that you can minimise.
We have access to the leading Country House Insurance products from Insurers such as Aviva, Ecclesiastical, Sterling, Lloyds of London, and Royal & Sun Alliance.
We are registered with the Financial Services Authority and a Member of Broker Network, the UK’s largest Network of independent insurance brokers. This means that our team can negotiate preferential rates with some of the country’s leading insurers and deliver them straight to you.
All this means you benefit from a competitive premium with a leading insurer combined with a specialist Country House Insurance broker.
The service is excellent. Just a telephone call and things get sorted out – it’s very efficient. The main benefit to me is the ease of operations. There’s no succession of form-filling and dealing with different departments. With Greenfield someone takes responsibility and gets on with it.
