B&B Insurance
Insurance for a bb always a major consideration for anyone running or considering running this type of business. A suitable bb insurance policy should be arranged to protect not only the fabric of the home and it's contents but any additional business contents and stock not forgetting of course the essential liability covers required to run a business of this nature.
Often, the first starting point is to contact the bb insurance provider, as after all, most bed & breakfast businesses are carried out in the owners home and therefore, this avenue is the logical choice for insurance. However, most people quickly find that almost all home insurance providers are unable to insure a property where there is any business activity (or certainly any activity other than that of a clerical nature being carried out). The correct course then is to locate an insurance company that are happy to insure a property that is being used as a home with the addition of a bed & breakfast business being operated from the premises.
