Transcript

Do we have holiday insurance for a Woodfarm Barns or Barges stay? The answer is no, and the reason is I hate insurance companies. We used to offer a protection system you could opt into on every booking. It wasn’t very expensive, and we never actually had to use it.

Then along came Covid, and the insurance company said, “Oh no, we don’t want to give you any money.” So, I was about to swear – but I’m not going to – and I told them what I thought of them.

However, you may have it on your household insurance. You may be covered on your bank account insurance. I know I’ve got various bits and pieces on mine. But we do not offer insurance, purely and simply because I hate insurance companies.

Too honest? Oh well.
