ABOUT US

Ireland is a top worldwide destination – In 2019 over 11 million people visited us. And why not – we are home to stunning landscapes and natural wonders (Check out the cliffs of Moher, the Giants Causeway and the Burren) as well as being a land steeped in history (Look at Newgrange, Bunratty and St. Johns Castle – and of course Blarney Castle.)

ABOUT US

We also have a thriving and dynamic cultural scene – Temple Bar or Galway anyone?

Is it any wonder that visitors come from all over the Globe to visit our tiny island?

Yet, unbelievably many of us living in Ireland don’t take the time to properly get to know our own island.

However, it’s no surprise that given current international travel restrictions, Irish Staycations are experiencing a much needed lift.

While we all know the benefits of taking out travel insurance when going abroad, we don’t always think about the problems that we may face when taking that trip up the Wild Atlantic Way, touring the Ring of Kerry or visiting the Whisky Distilleries of Northern Ireland.

ABOUT US

That’s why two of the most trusted Irish Insurance providers, Accident & General and Getcover have joined forces to introduce Staycation Cover.

Cancelling a hotel in Ireland last minute due to illness can be an expensive business and what about those pre-booked trains or buses? Or what if you arrive at your country cottage in Donegal to find that it has been left uninhabitable due to flood or fire and need to pay for alternative accommodation for the night?

And what if, while kissing the Blarney stone, your camera falls and is broken or you lose your favourite necklace? Some household policies MAY cover this, but some won’t and it may affect your no-claims discount if you were to claim.

ABOUT US

Staycationcover also covers your smart phone, laptop or tablet if it is lost, stolen, damaged or destroyed.

With over 100 campsites in Ireland, why not get a bit closer to nature? Staycationcover will cover the value or repair of your camping (and sports equipment) which may be damaged or stolen.

Bringing your bikes? If your bicycle is stolen you can claim to replace it.

ABOUT US

Everyone hopes to have a great trip, safe from injury. But what if the worse was to happen and you sustain a bodily injury that is the cause of permanent total disablement?

Your Staycationcover policy includes cover if the worst happens.

Breakdown cover is also included in the Staycationcover Gold level of cover to give you that extra confidence when driving around this wonderful island.

All of the above (and more) is covered in staycationcover.ie
