I can see this clause coming in on policies as more people stop towing and pitch their caravans on sites, as it will probably alter the risk assessment,

I needed to leave my van for 10 days on a CL as we had to go home and rather than tow the van 500 miles I left it on site. Emailed Caravanguard and said what I wanted to do, they asked the postcode of the CL, then said fine no extra cost.
I'd rather have that clause than one that says no towing over 100% 😱

Presumably the CL being a part of the Caravan Club showed it was registered for leisure use with the Club, and therefore exempt from Local Authority registration.

That I don't know, I just read 72hrs unattended in the policy and emailed them.
Who know if those camping sites in pitch up, asci and etc are registered with local authorities.

Pitchup.com website has a detailed description of what owners setting up a campsite have to do to be compliant with the Law. However what evidence Pitchup seek when new sites are placed on the site I don’t know. After all it’s not Pitchups responsibility to vet a landowners actions. Just like if you book a hotel stay you don’t know if the hotel is compliant with all aspects of the Law.

Caravanguard paid out without a quibble when my van got scraped by a motorhome on the ferry.
They are still pursuing the motorhomer that left his handbrake off and caused the accident. I await to see next year if there is a rise in premium.
