Looking for insurance for a second home, holiday cottage or apartment in the UK? Do you prefer to holiday in your other home yourself and allow family or friends to use it without charge? Then you’ll need a specific type of home insurance to protect it. Your own home insurers may not be keen to insure such a risk, as they may perceive your additional home will lie vacant for some of the year.

Boshers have negotiated with a leading insurer to enable us to accommodate our clients who own such a home. We arrange insurance cover for homes located within the UK.

When providing insurance for your coastal or countryside bolthole, we also prefer to place the Home Insurance for your main residence, when it falls due for renewal.

Insuring both homes with one insurance company balances the risk for the insurer and prevents both overlaps and gaps in cover.

The additional home insurance policy will be endorsed by the insurers to make the policy relevant. You will be required to make sure the second home is regularly checked internally. We require checks at least once a fortnight by yourself or an adult authorised by you, perhaps a neighbour.

Call us today for a quotation and we will be happy to discuss your property insurance needs.
