If you are anything like me, your getting on a bit and you probably think you’ve seen the last of your summer music festivals with sweltering and uncomfortable tents as your only place to sleep. However, if you’re still into your music (I particularly like early 70′s bands like Soft Machine and Caravan) then you could always bring your motorhome (or someone else’s) along to a music festival and enjoy the music and the atmosphere without the rough sleep under canvas. You can listen to Caravan in your caravan!
What many people have found with the motorhome route that you get the best of both worlds really because you can enjoy the atmosphere of the festival and of course the live music, but you get a cup of tea every morning, there are no queues for toilets and showers and you have a comfortable, dry bed to sleep on every night!
Many owners of motorhomes rent out their motorhomes for events like this because they know that lots of people enjoy music festivals but don’t look forward to the camping, however what a lot of them don’t realise is that doing this, while perfectly legal, is usually not covered under a standard motorhome insurance policy.
I remember seeing a couple at Glastonbury last year, blissfully leaving their motorhome in the sunny early hours of the morning having breakfasted under the awning, only to return late at night to find that one of Glastonbury’s famed monsoons had filled the awning with water causing it to twist, break and generally be ruined, That’s about 1000 worth of damage and all uninsured if the vehicle had been hired out without the authority of the insurance company.
If you think you might like to take your motorhome to Glastonbury or a similar festival, or that you might let someone else take it, it is well worth getting it covered for the trip as you really don’t know what might happen.
If you’re not going yourself, it is probably best to start by loaning your motorhome to friends or family rather than people you don’t know because adding friends or family to an existing insurance policy is by far the easiest way to go. So you can watch the festival from the comfort of your own home, safe in the knowledge that your motorhome is being looked after and even if it isn’t, you’ll know you have the right insurance to cover it.
