Do UK travel insurance policies cover individuals in a group booking for a shared house staycation?

Hi, we are going away next weekend with a group of friends and have booked a large shared house. Does anyone know of any travel policies that would cover us if any of us had to pull out because of covid? As we wouldn't have to cancel the booking as the rest of the group would still be able to go, but as we've booked the whole property the owner would not be able to refund individuals for the share they've paid. Thanks!

Given how prevalent Covid is, I doubt anybody's going to insure against self-isolation or illness caused by it.

To answer it more generally and not explicitly for Covid (which can add its own issues) then the sick person can claim off their insurance/the group insurance for their percentage of the monies paid (irrespective of who actually paid).

For Covid itself, there are plenty of threads and articles on who's providing what in relation to the pandemic
