About the policy

If your home is particularly valuable or unusual in some way, you may benefit from having high value buildings insurance. Equally, should the value of your possessions exceed £75,000 and include items such as jewellery, watches, fine art and antiques, high value contents insurance might suit you too.

Offering products from leading prestige insurers such as Aviva, Covea, Home & Legacy, and Oak, our high value home policies are designed to give exceptional levels of cover, protecting the things you care about whether you’re home or away.

Many of our customers enjoy travelling and overnight stays in their leisure home, motorhome, or caravan. High value home insurance enables you to travel with peace of mind. Prestige policies typically include worldwide personal possessions cover, so you’re free to take valuable items with you.
