Do you have any particular medical conditions? If so they may be excluded from cover. I would look first at the aggregator sites such as .. That way you can evaluate various companies against price and features and benefits. Most important is to know what your needs are and try to match cover to them. I would avoid internet based companies that do not have call centres. Although call centres are not everyones cup of tea, they can be better than just email if you need to contact them in an emergency. As with most things in life you get what you pay for so I would look carefully at 'cheap' policies as you may find they give you very little. I think you need to think about what happens to the motorhome if you take ill and can't drive it back. So repatriation of you, passengers and vehicle should be considered too.

If you have a currant account with Nationwide and as long as you pay in £750 a month they give free travel insurance. This is great for us as it also covers riding a motorcycle which a lot of insurers do not.
we both have policys with www.staysure.co.uk with existing conditions , about £35, used to have the cover with the bank but they are phaseing it out now , i think

You can open an account pay in the £750 each month. you are allowed to take the money out again, we are not in Cypress yetThanks gasman but don't have a Nationwide acc. Probably useful info for others that do.

You are having difficulty deciding on cover. Is it because you have not yet decided on what you want it for? You mentioned you wanted extra travel insurance but what exactly do you want covering? Once you have made your mind up then you can look for the best fit. Although I have not used them LV are getting a reputation for excellent customer service.

Might be worth looking them over?
We are just back from 3 months in Oz and NZ and had our insurance with Staysure. Price was good and they covered people living outside UK . Had another company before sorry can't remember who but they stopped covering folks who didn't live in UK.
No matter where you travel outside your home country I think you need insurance . Even in Europe as your card onlycovers treatment . If it is a serious illness then it does not cover repatriation and that is the expensive bit.
I did quite a bit if research when we had to change and to be honest the expensive companies got as bad reviews as the cheap ones !!!
