Private client insurance brokers
enquiries@castleacreinsurance.com
Castleacre advise heritage and private clients on risk management and insurance. Directors Hugo Johnsen and Guy Everington established the company in 2005 based on their extensive experience with listed and historic buildings and estates, private clients, families and trusts.
Castleacre solely focus on clients who need more understanding and attention in relation to their insurance. In contrast to increasingly impersonal insurance services, Castleacre clients benefit from a direct relationship with a senior dedicated insurance advisor, who is there to help them any queries or claims.
Since 2005 they have been joined by other senior insurance and financial professionals from Lloyd’s and the City and the company has expanded to help wealthy individuals and families throughout the United Kingdom, Ireland and Europe.
As specialist insurance brokers, Castleacre offers a service that goes beyond the standard transactional approach. We understand that clients with historic properties, fine art collections, or complex estates require more than generic coverage—they need expertise, attention to detail, and personalised guidance every step of the way.
Dedicated senior advisors: Direct access to a senior insurance advisor ensures questions are answered and claims are handled efficiently.
Tailored risk management: Each client’s unique situation is assessed, with coverage strategies reflecting the value, rarity, and significance of their assets.
Long-term support: Relationships matter. We work alongside families and trustees for decades, adapting coverage as circumstances evolve.
