Staycation Travel Insurance
for holidays in the UK or Ireland

Get an instant Insurance Quote

If you are a UK, Channel Islands (CI) or Isle of Man (IoM) resident and taking a holiday closer to home, Travel Insurance is just as important as for trips further afield.

Good Cancellation cover is essential for any holiday as the risk of needing to cancel your trip remains the same whether at home or abroad.

If you are travelling between the UK and the Channel Islands (CI) or Isle of Man, or to the Republic of Ireland, you may be charged for some medical expenses so having Comprehensive insurance in place will ensure that you are covered when needed.

Any Questions?

  1.  
  2. Yes.
    If you are staying in pre-booked, paid accomodation, you can buy insurance and its important to be covered in case you need to Cancel. You will not be covered for Medical Expenses claims within your Home Country.
  3. Yes, if you would like to be insured for related claims, for example if you need to cancel your trip due to your existing Medical Condition. If you are travelling outside of your Home Country, medical treatment can be expensive, so travelling without cover for existing conditions can be risky.
  4. We have two options, Super or Elite, which are suitable for business travellers.
    Elite has high levels of cover, including 'Replacement Personnel' insurance should illness or injury prevent you from completing overseas business.

Benefits of UK Staycation Travel Insurance

  • Easy to arrange, even for last-minute bookings
    If you are planning a trip within the UK or the Republic of Ireland, our single trip insurance is the ideal policy. It’s quick and easy to arrange and is perfect for any staycation involving pre-booked accommodation, whether it's a hotel mini-break; a self-catering cottage; a river trip on a canalboat; travelling around the UK in a motorhome or camping in a designated campsite. Make sure that you’re covered by the Single trip Travel Insurance from Worldwide Insure.
  • High levels of Medical cover for when you need it
    If the area you are visiting does not have NHS cover, you may be charged for medical treatment. Medical emergencies can arise whenever you travel, even on a day-trip, so taking out a Single Trip travel policy with medical cover is essential for such trips.
    Our 24-hr Emergency assistance service can liaise with medical staff and your own doctor so you don't have to. Treatment and repatriation costs to return home after a medical emergency can be costly, so travel safe in the knowledge that your Worldwide Insure policy provides help if something goes wrong.
  • Protection
    A holiday can be ruined by the theft or loss of personal baggage; a delayed departure; a missed flight – or having to cancel your trip altogether. At least taking out insurance means you won’t suffer the financial impact too.
  • Many Sports & Activities covered
    A wide range of Sports and Activities are covered, including Wintersports.
