Family Cycle Insurance - Uk and Abroad - any suggestions

Hi

Family started to use our bikes. Minds a old mountain bike along with the missu one. Kids have new mountain bike - £65 and a toddlers one - £40

Anyway - total cost of replacement i rekon say £300 for all

AnyRang Direct line as home insurance is with them - £25 the lot for a year BUT it does not cover Europe as we are off there for 2 weeks next month.

Any suggestions whether there is a policy I can get for UK and France or should I just get one for France?

    Hi ..

    Sommat wrong somewhere ...

    Extract:

    Bicycle cover
    Bikes are covered by your contents insurance when they’re parked at
    home, and against accidental loss or damage anywhere in the world
    for up to £1,000 per cycle under the Personal Possessions cover.

    Taken from Direct Line - link here:

    Hope this helps.
    If many little people, in many little places, do many little things,
    they can change the face of the world.

    Homeplus is brand new. Seems it came out Monday from the guy I just spoke to. And luckily for, only just renewed with a normnal home policy so I can cancal easily.

    Its only a extra £5.5 a month but covers bikes, travel insurance, accidental damage and cover for like emergencies damage upto £500 eg plumbing, gas

    Really impressed, thats just what I need for the family.

    Thanks for the nudge *MF* - really appreciated it.
