Yes, second home insurance offers specialised cover tailored to properties that aren’t your primary residence.
This typically includes protection against risks like vacancy periods, vandalism, and weather damage specific to the location.
Standard home insurance often does not cover these scenarios or may have limitations when applied to a secondary property.
The cost varies depending on factors like the location, value, and size of your second home, its construction type, the chosen level of coverage, and your claims history.
However, at Intelligent Insurance, we pride ourselves on finding competitive rates while ensuring comprehensive cover for your needs. Get your bespoke quote now.
Certain standard home insurance policies have restrictions on vacancy periods, often exceeding 30 days.
Leaving your second home empty for extended periods might require notifying your insurer or adjusting your policy to ensure continued coverage.
We can navigate these options with you to avoid any gaps in protection.
Intelligent Insurance approaches second home cover with a smart, personalised touch. Understanding that each property and homeowner’s circumstances are unique, we tailor our policies to your needs.
This intelligent approach ensures that whether your home is a standard build, a listed property, or has unique characteristics, your insurance coverage is as individual as your home.
We’re committed to providing protection that adapts to your specific needs, offering peace of mind and comprehensive cover for both buildings & contents.
Family Legal Protection Plus extends this cover limit to £50,000 and increases the range of legal disputes that you’re covered for.

Cover for accidental breakages or damage to your buildings e.g: putting your foot through the ceiling, or accidental breakage of glass

At Intelligent Insurance we know that every second home is different. We assess second homes on an individual basis, considering everything from the amount of time left unoccupied to the level of security in place, location, and how the property is used.
