The Vehicle is insured for damage to the Vehicle and the property of a third party; but does not include any personal insurance for the customer (including death or bodily injury to the driver) or cover any personal possessions. The hire rate quoted includes a standard excess of GB £1000 per accident or reported incident. In the event of any damage to either the vehicle or third party property, the hirer will be liable for the first GB £1000 per claim. Only persons named on the Rental Agreement are insured to drive the vehicle. Please note that no insurance cover is offered for overhead damage, (over 6 feet in height from the ground) any damage is deemed as gross negligence, or any internal damages; therefore the hirer accepts fully liability for these, which is in addition to the standard vehicle excess should that apply. Windscreens, wing mirrors and/or tyre damage are not covered by the standard vehicle insurance.
Pyeman Motorhomes will be responsible should damage to personal possessions or bodily injury occur (including death) as a result of proven gross negligence on Pyeman Motorhomes part i.e. our actions or failure to act. Pyeman Motorhomes will not be responsible for any loss which is a side effect of the main loss e.g. loss of profits or opportunity. This is separate from the vehicle insurance provided.
All customers are strongly advised to have their own personal travel insurance policy in place in addition to any insurance provided by Pyeman Motorhomes.
