Dont forget to take out golf insurance for your next golfing holiday

2016/7/19 16:17:39

Golf has soared in popularity over the past decade primarily because it has become more affordable and accessible to a wider range of players. In light of this it is not surprising then that the sport has also become a popular choice of activity holiday for couples and families alike. If you are planning a golfing holiday yourself then there are a few important things to consider such as accommodation, equipment hire or storage, golf club fees and of course insurance.

Whether you are travelling abroad or visiting another part of the UK for your next golfing holiday it is vital that you ensure you have adequate golfing insurance so you are covered against any unexpected events. Most holidaymakers travelling abroad will take out a general insurance policy but it is important you check exactly what this insurance policy covers you for. Many general travel insurance policies do not cover sports injuries or expensive equipment so it is essential that you have a thorough read of the policy documents before signing up for a policy.

When selecting a travel insurance policy you will have the option to choose for cover in a number of European and international countries depending on where you intend to travel for your golfing holidays. Usually you can choose from a single trip policy to an annual multi trip policy, although if you intend to be away for more than 30 days in any particular country you will need to tailor this. Checking the excess fees is very important as you don't want to be faced with an unexpected charge if you do put in a claim.

Another important aspect is cover for your equipment should it become lost damaged or stolen. Although most airlines do offer a sports equipment baggage allowance at an extra fee it is often the case that your expensive clubs will not be handled as carefully as you would hope and damages do occur all too frequently. Even if you only intend to holiday in the UK it is important that you have adequate cover to protect you from loss or damage as many general household insurance policies will not cover expensive sports equipment such as golf clubs.

Finding the right golf insurance policy for your next holiday can be time consuming when you have to sift through all of the excess fees and policy documents. Luckily there are now comparison websites that can help you compare policies easily and make quick adjustments so you have the right cover needed.
