Insurance for golf courses throughout the UK
Your course insurance cover should come as part of the golf club policy package with a specialist scheme, however every policy can be tailored to individual clubs needs and therefore you should only pay for the cover you require.
For example, a club may choose to opt out of irrigation cover or cover for playing surfaces which in turn should pass on a saving to you. For instance where there is no club house or facilities, only golf course insurance cover itself will be required which should include liability cover.

I’m unhappy with my current broker, can I change midway through my policy to another supplier?
You have the right to cancel your policy however we would advise you to check with your existing suppliers first as you will probably incur policy cancellation charges.
You may be able to transfer your existing policy to another broker midway through a policy term however you are contracted to the length of term of the policy with the insurer you have the policy with. This is simple process by means of a mandate request.
