Seeing another post has reminded me...

Do you have tent insurance?

Who is your insurance with?

Many Thanks

I've literally only just done a search on the forum about this - there are loads of discussions about it here. It seems that many people don't bother with insurance for tents as the premiums are so high compared to the replacement value. I don't think we're going to bother - all in we've probably spent about £400 on our equipment, and a rough insurance premium I got using an online quote was £47! Hardly seems worth it.

Thanks!

I did try using search, but it keeps telling me to try again when it isn't so busy! Given it is the school holidays and I was searching in a brief respite from my nearly 5 year old I doubt I would remember later!

I am fairly sure it isn't covered under our household insurance but I will get DH to double check.

We didn't bother with insurance last year, but now I am adding more and more to our kit I am beginning to think it could be worth while, I will go and have a read of the thread posted above.

Cheers
