Your own caravan insurance will pay. Storage site t&c's always state storage at owner's risk & any attempt to hold them responsible would fail as liability could not be proven.

thank you.

the only silly question is the one you do not ask.

Regarding storage, as you have paid the storage owner to look after your caravan, they have a "Duty of Care" and can be held liable for damage to a caravan despite a clause in the T & Cs of the contract stating "no liability" etc. The clause would be deemed an Unfair Clause in consumer contracts.

A condition of storage is always that your caravan is insured so your first call would be to your own caravan insurer, so the caravan owner would not be attempting to claim off the site owner anyway. Any claim on the site owner would be dealt with by his own public liability insurer who would reject any claim from caravan insurer unless liability could be proved....Which it could not, the site owner's 'duty of care' would not, for example extend to preventing Chinese lanterns decending from the sky..

Have you ever been asked to produce proof that your caravan is insured when storing it?

Surely this -

"The owner of the site says there were floating lanterns let off into the sky on the night the blaze took hold. He said there was a party in the site's clubhouse, and chinese style floating lanterns were set off into the sky."

might place some liability on the owner of the site as it was people in the clubhouse (which should be the owners responsability)who let the lanterns off. ??
