Golf Travel Insurance – Cover for You and Your Equipment
Travel Insurance for golfing trips abroad and in the UK.
Travel Insurance for Golfing Trips Abroad
Whether you’re planning a golfing holiday abroad or in the UK, Golf Travel Insurance ensures your trip goes smoothly. Designed specifically for golf enthusiasts, this extension adds extra protection to your standard Travel Insurance, safeguarding your golf clubs and non-refundable green fees.
Travel Insurance for Golf
While non-competitive golf is covered within our policies under activities pack A at no extra cost, adding the Golf Cover Insurance extension provides:
- Golf Equipment Insurance: Covers loss, theft, or damage to your clubs, bags, and other equipment.
- Green Fee Cover: Protects non-refundable green fees if you’re unable to play due to illness, injury, or adverse weather.
- Hire Costs: Reimburses the cost of hiring replacement equipment if yours is delayed, lost, or damaged.
‘Hole in One’ Cover: Celebrate your achievement during competitive play with a special benefit included in some policies.
Always check your policy wording, as terms, cover and limits can vary between insurers.
Travel Insurance for Golfers with medical conditons
Don’t forget that as we work with a panel of insurers we can provide cover for hundreds of pre-existing medical conditions with no upper age limit. We advise you to always check the policy wording to ensure that you have the appropriate level of cover for your needs and are aware of any exclusions that may apply. It is important that you declare all pre-existing medical conditions when getting Golf Travel Insurance. This way, you are covered should anything health-related go wrong on your golf trip. We cover more than golf clubs and equipment. We also offer protection for cancellations and cover for emergency medical expenses, including repatriation, should you need to return home quickly due to a medical emergency. Plus, with our 24/7 support, help is just a phone call away, providing peace of mind so you can focus on enjoying your game.
Simply tell us about your trip, your age and any pre-existing medical conditions, and we’ll handle the golf insurance comparison for you.
Find the perfect match with Golf Insurance Comparison
Our Travel Insurance comparison tool allows you to compare golf insurance from multiple insurers, all of which can provide the golf cover you are looking for. After answering a few questions about your age, medical history, destination, duration of trip and adding on our golf cover extension, we will only show you policies that are suitable for your travel requirements, including your medical history, age, and type of golfing holiday.

Do I need Golf Insurance in the UK?
Golf Cover Insurance in the UK is recommended for anyone regularly playing or travelling for golf.

With the unpredictable weather in the UK and the possibility of theft or loss of expensive equipment, having dedicated golf insurance provides peace of mind, ensuring that your investment is protected.
How do I find the best Golf Insurance for my golfing trip, in the UK, or abroad?
To find the best Golf Insurance for your trip, either in the UK or abroad, you should start by assessing your specific needs, such as cover for your equipment and green fees.

When comparing Golf Insurance policies, you should pay attention to the details of the cover offered, including what is covered (such as equipment, green fees, and accidents) and any exclusions or limitations. Evaluate the cost of the policy in relation to the extent of cover provided, including the amount of excess to pay in the event of a claim. At Just Travel Cover, we will only show you policies that best match your requirements, so you can compare and find a policy that best meets your budget and travel requirements.
Can I add Golf Insurance to my existing Travel Insurance policy?
Yes. If you have already purchased a Travel Insurance policy and now need golfers insurance, you should declare this.
