Owning an equestrian property for many horse owners can be a dream come true but with it does come additional responsibilities, none less so than ensuring you have adequate insurance in place.\u00a0The experts at\u00a0KBIS British Equine Insurance<\/a>\u00a0explain more.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

Equestrian property insurance policies<\/h2>\n

While a standard household policy may extend cover to include your stables and barns under the section Outbuildings, it is unlikely to provide cover for non-standard buildings, arenas, horse walkers, machinery, hay and straw and will certainly not cover you for any business activities such as livery.<\/p>\n

Taking out specialist equestrian property insurance will mean you are able to cover your own home and contents and that of your horse\u2019s, altogether under one policy. Including everything from timber stables, to show jumps, feed, farm machinery, saddlery and tack, arenas, gallops and even equine pools!<\/p>\n

Cover options<\/h2>\n

When possible supplying pictures of buildings and the layout of your yard will help the insurer to fully understand your requirements:<\/p>\n
