French Property Insurance

France is loved by many for a number of reasons, including its stunning countryside, wonderful beaches, and charming market towns. France is a magnet for UK holidaymakers. Many choose to invest in homes, static caravans, and park homes in France, whether for holidays or permanent use.

Just like homes and caravans in the UK, you may want to protect your property from a range of potential hazards, from natural disasters like floods and storms to damage caused by letting them out.

Holiday home insurance in France

Whether you’re living in France permanently or have decided to make it your regular home-from-home, you have options for financially protecting your asset.

Why do I need insurance?

Holiday home insurance in France is there to help protect your finances against problems like fire and flood damage, theft, or accidental damage.

With a mortgage you may need to demonstrate to your lender that you have suitable home insurance. That’s why it can help to talk to a provider that understands French holiday home insurance and can provide cover for your home and your personal property.

When looking for suitable cover for your French property, it’s important to understand what protection is available. For example, many villas in the south of France have swimming pools, garages or outbuildings, all of which can be covered with Intasure as part of your French property insurance policy.

Profiting from your investment

If you’ve invested in a static caravan, park home or holiday home in France, you might not be using it all the time. So while you’re not there, you may consider renting it out as a holiday let to earn additional income
