Travel Insurance

Travel insurance is a vital aspect to booking a holiday, giving you protection against unforeseen circumstances that could otherwise spoil your holiday. It is important that you purchase travel insurance that properly covers your participation in whatever activities you may undertake at the time that you make your booking. To assist you with this, we have arranged competitive travel insurance from Travel & General insurance Company plc to specifically meet your needs on your holiday. To arrange cover simply call 01293 533338.

         

Should you decide not to purchase our insurance, you must provide us with details of your alternative insurance with your final payment.

The cover is underwritten by Travel & General Insurance Company plc, except for Section K (Legal expenses), which is underwritten by DAS Legal Expenses Insurance Company Limited. Both insurers are authorised and regulated by the Financial Services Authority.

Important declaration An insurance policy can only provide cover in respect of an event/occurrence which is sudden, unforeseen and beyond your reasonable control. Therefore any facts known to you, which could possibly result in you having to make a claim, must be disclosed, otherwise you may not be covered.

In particular, you must be able to make the following declaration for yourself and anyone travelling with you:

As far as I know neither I, nor my travelling companion(s), nor immediate family, nor business associate(s), nor anyone I am visiting, nor anyone else for whom I would expect to be covered:
1) are waiting for or has the knowledge of the need for an operation, hospital consultation or any other hospital treatment or investigations including the results of a routine test;
2) have been seen by a specialist or been admitted to a hospital overnight in the last 12 months (other than for regular check ups);
3) have received treatment, or are waiting to receive treatment, including regular medication, within the last 5 years;
4) have any pre-existing and on-going medical condition that could reasonably be anticipated to give rise to a complication needing medical intervention prior to or during a journey (if in doubt check with your general practitioner);
5) have been diagnosed by a registered general practitioner as having a terminal condition;
6) know of any circumstances that could be reasonably expected to give rise to a claim under this policy.

If you cannot make this declaration when you take out the insurance, you must contact Healthcheck on (0845) 408 0585
