Insurance & Peace of Mind
Properly covered
This section needs Rosemary’s actual policy details before launch. It should state what cover is carried on the homes, and set out clearly what that does and does not do for a guest.
Guests should also be told, plainly, whether they are expected to carry their own travel or renters insurance, particularly on mid-term stays where a guest’s own contents are in the home for a month or more.
Nothing here should be written as a guarantee of cover until the policy wording has been checked. Insurance claims made on a website are held to what the policy actually says.
