21/02/2023

Tourers looking for insurance or cover could win a Caravan and Motorhome Club manoeuvring course when they get a quote

Tourers looking for insurance or cover for their leisure vehicle, car or home, will be automatically entered into a prize draw to win a manoeuvring course, worth up to £204, when they get a quote through the Caravan and Motorhome Club. 

The Club’s prize draw will launch at the Caravan, Camping and Motorhome Show at Birmingham NEC on 21 February 2023 and is open to members and non-members.  Those that want to switch their policy to Caravan and Motorhome Club cover or insurance will need to become a member of the Club.  However, anyone tempted to switch their motorhome, campervan or caravan cover to the Club’s Caravan Cover, Motorhome Insurance or Campervan Insurance before the end of their current policy ends, will be refunded any cancellation fees, up to a maximum of £50*.

Caravan Cover has been designed by experts, who understand the passion tourers have to get away on a touring holiday and enjoy the great outdoors. The popular cover enjoyed by many Club members and rated 5 Star on Trustpilot**, includes new for old cover for outfits up to 15 years; hotel stay and caravan hire if the vehicle is damaged or stolen while away and cover for accidental damage, fire, theft, vandalism, storm or flood whether the caravan is on the road or in storage.

The Defaqto 5 Star Expert rated Motorhome and Campervan Insurance, is the only 5 Star Defaqto rated cover of its kind in the country open to tourers of all ages. Cover also includes clothing, non-permanent fixtures, fittings, and baggage up to £5,000 plus up to £75 per night for 15 nights’ overnight accommodation if the vehicle becomes unusable in an accident.

The Club’s Caravan Cover is so popular it is renewed by nearly nine out of 10 Club members.***. 

As an added incentive, to take out the Club’s Motorhome or Campervan Insurance, the Club will save members at least £25 off their current provider’s renewal premium when switching.****

With 50 years insurance experience, the Caravan and Motorhome Club offers a portfolio of cover products. For example, as the Club knows their members like to get away, its Home Insurance can provide full cover for up to 90 days away from home, and beyond 90 days on application, allowing members to make the most of their long-touring holidays.

Harvey Alexander, Director of Marketing & Membership Services for the Caravan and Motorhome Club, comments: “Many people may naturally think we just offer cover for our members’ motorhomes and caravans but our financial protection products extends far beyond that to include campervan, car, home, UK breakdown/recovery cover and overseas breakdown and travel insurance.

“We are delighted to be able to offer members and non-members the chance to enter this prize draw and look forward to welcoming visitors to our stand at the show where they can talk to one of our financial product experts to find out more about our competitive range of insurance and cover products.”

Winners of the prize draw will be picked at random after the closing date on 21 March 2023 to receive either a caravan, campervan or motorhome training course. The Club runs courses across 17 locations in the UK, they are designed to ensure participants are completely comfortable driving their outfit safely before heading on their outdoor adventure. Sessions include manoeuvring advice, hitching and towing safely, safety checks, understanding the laws that affect caravanning and campervanning and more.

In addition to a comprehensive range of insurance and cover options, the Club also offers MAYDAY UK Breakdown Cover which has members covered 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year for breakdown emergencies nationwide. The Club’s Red Pennant Overseas Breakdown and Travel Insurance includes options to cover single trips, including long stays overseas, and multiple trips in a year - providing choices for all members and taking into account individual preferences.
