Covid Event Cancellation Insurance:
Premium set at 5.6% of Event Cost
The government has published the rules for the Live Events Reinsurance
Scheme:
› Eligible Events are those generally available to the public, located in the
UK and scheduled to take place before 30 September 2022
› It protects against an event not being able to legally take place due to
new government Covid-19 restrictions
› Cover will be for costs, subject to a 5% or £1,000 excess, whichever is the
higher
› The premium will be 5% plus Insurance Premium Tax
› The cover is only available where the event is also insured for standard
event cancellation insurance
› The scheme is to be reviewed in Spring 2022
Event Insurance Company CoverMarque first wrote to the government
requesting them to back this type of insurance last August, and is
delighted that this insurance will now finally be available. “It will provide
event organisers with the financial security to go ahead and arrange their
events,” says managing director Nick Drew. “It is fantastic for them and for
all of the suppliers of infrastructure and services to those events.
“CoverMarque also arranges the insurance for hundreds of temporary
structure hirers and mobile toilet companies, and they are so dependent
on live events”.

Classic Glamping
Rebrands to Unique
Hideaways
JULY 2021 saw Classic Glamping re-brand to
Unique Hideaways. The company had evolved in
such a way that it was time to create a fresh image
that would reflect its ever-growing portfolio of
bespoke accommodation. This change in brand
has allowed Unique Hideaways to welcome a
wider range of accommodation types into its
collection.
From houseboats docked in private quays to
romantic clifftop cabins with luxurious hot tubs,
Unique Hideaways offers a collection of one-ofa-kind
places to stay in hidden corners across the
UK.
The team at Unique Hideaways works with
owners to learn everything about their hideaway.
From the initial idea to the finished piece, and if
owners need help from the very beginning, they
are on hand to advise every step of the way. Most
of the hideaways are positioned in the South
West, but Unique Hideaways is now starting to
spread its magic across Wales and is looking to
head further afield.
If you have your own hideaway, a plot of land
or even a vision that you’d like to explore, then
please get in touch.

The New Duet Sauna
THE NEW Duet two person sauna launches at The Glamping Show 2021.
As interest in saunas continues to grow in the glamping industry, and as sites look to add that
‘something special’ to their portfolio, the need for a smaller two person unit has become apparent.
The new Duet now shows off a tinted glass wall at one end of the box shaped structure allowing
users to take in whatever amazing view the owner chooses to face it towards.
Available in both wood-fired and electric heater versions, the Duet is now available in a variety
of external colours whilst keeping the huge 42mm thick solid wood walls – insulation and heat
retention being a priority, as well as build quality. Different sizes are available to suit all spaces and
the inclusion of outdoor seating is a great addition for cooling off.
The Duet complements adult only and couples retreats, working well with the LuvTub two person
hot tub. The vision of a totally off-grid eco spa setup can now be realised with the addition of these
products whilst ticking all of the boxes when it comes to guests seeking out an amazing place to stay.
