Booking a
holiday in France needn't be a daunting prospect. Of course you
can make a reservation with a tour operator, although this way you may experience
less French culture, which is half the fun of going
there!
We help you with the arrangements by providing all the information you need on accommodation
- what to choose and where to find it - and of course we explain all travel
options available.
Also in this section you will find
everything you need to consider before you travel, such as ordering money,
preparing the car,
packing
the suitcase.....and much, much more besides.
Travel Insurance
People take varied holidays these days, so we've created a choice of travel insurance to help you get great value and cover for whatever you've got planned.
Single Trip Travel Insurance
We offer a range of travel insurance policies to enable you to get great value and cover for whatever you've got planned. If you are only taking one trip, then our single trip travel insurance may be just what you need.
Emergencies
Don't let any mishaps ruin a good holiday. Our holiday insurance covers you for all sorts of things including cancellations, medical bills, accidents, delayed flights, delayed baggage, legal costs and more.
Longer Trips
Planning that big trip of a lifetime? If it's over 185 days long and you're aged between 16 and 40, a worldwide travel insurance policy could be just what you need. The policy is valid for a full 365 days, and provides cover for cancellations before you travel.
Annual Cover
If you love to travel frequently, then annual travel insurance should be the first thing on your itinerary. You can buy multi trip insurance once and not give it another thought for the whole year.
Golf Cover
Our golf cover can be included in your single or multi trip travel insurance to cover you for loss, damage or theft of equipment and clothing. It's easy to add golf cover to your travel insurance, simply tick the relevant box when you get your travel insurance quote.
Winter Sports Cover
Our winter sports cover will ensure that your ski or snowboard equipment is covered. Simply add winter sports cover when you get a holiday insurance quote.
There are two types of holiday insurance that we
would recommend you to have for your protection whilst on holiday:
- firstly conventional travel insurance to protect you and cover
any unrecoverable expenses such as deposits in the event you have to
cancel your holiday for unavoidable reasons such as serious illness.
- secondly vehicle recovery insurance in case you have a serious
breakdown in your car and have to have it locally repaired or returned to the UK.
Use the panel on the left to take out conventional travel
insurance.
Please make sure you check individual policies to ensure they
provide the cover you need.
