Insurance overview
Owner, resident, Estate Manager or Land Agent, there’s a lot to think about when running an estate.
Whether your estate houses a collection of fine art, opens its doors to the public or has a working farm with rental properties, it faces risks. These risks range from damage as a result of extreme weather events, loss of income due to having to close your business to remedy this damage, and liability for injury to the public or employees. We can help you identify and manage these challenges.
What we can cover you for:

- Public and Product Liability - protection for your estate if you or your employees are held responsible for accidental injury to clients, customers or the public, or for damage to their property. You are also covered for injuries or property damage caused by your products. Our normal cover is £10 million but you can choose higher limits.
