Our verdict

Carole Nash is a UK broker built around the motorcycle, so it suits riders first and anyone who wants a bike policy held next to car, van or travel cover. Motorbike premiums start at £257, and the firm has traded since 1985 under Financial Conduct Authority authorisation.

Pros and cons

Pros

  • Claims can be opened by phone, online and app, so a claim is not tied to a single channel outside office hours.
  • The motorcycle policy carries Up to GBP 21,000 personal accident cover as standard.
  • Authorised by the Financial Conduct Authority under reference 307243.

Cons

  • The range is motorcycle, auto and van, so home, life and pet cover sit elsewhere.
  • Support runs on phone, chat and help centre, and email is not among those routes.
  • Carole Nash is a broker rather than the risk carrier, so the insurer named on your document is a separate provider.

Who it suits

  • Motorcyclists whose main vehicle is a bike, and riders who want personal accident cover folded into the policy.
  • Drivers who want bike, car, van and travel policies handled under the same broker.
  • Claimants who want to open a claim by phone, online, in the app or by text under phone, online and app.

Who should look elsewhere

  • bunq, where the premium is €0 in euros, if a euro account matters more than UK motorbike cover.
  • Linxea, whose premium starts at €25 in euros, if you are after a euro based product rather than a UK motorcycle policy.
  • bunq Spain, priced at €0 in euros, if euro costs decide it and you hold no UK bike.

Frequently asked questions

What does a Carole Nash policy cost from?+

Motorbike cover is advertised from £257 on the motorcycle policy page. That figure is specific to a bike, so a car, van or travel quote is priced separately and moves with the vehicle and the rider. Treat it as the floor for a bike policy, not a quote for anything else.

Is Carole Nash an insurer or a broker?+

Carole Nash is a broker, not the insurer itself, so cover is placed with providers on the market and the insurer named on your document is the one that pays a claim. The company behind the site is Carole Nash Insurance Consultants Ltd.

Is it regulated in the UK?+

Yes. The Financial Conduct Authority licence is 307243 and the head office sits in the United Kingdom. Check that reference on the regulator's register before you pay, and read the policy schedule to see which insurer has taken the risk on your cover.

How do I make a claim?+

Claims can be started through phone, online and app, so you are not tied to a single route during a stressful moment. Because Carole Nash brokers the cover, have the policy details and the named insurer ready before you call, since that is who handles the claim day to day.

What does the motorcycle policy include?+

The motorcycle policy carries Up to GBP 21,000 personal accident cover as personal accident cover, which pays out for injury to you or a pillion passenger. The wider range is motorcycle, auto and van, so the same broker can hold the bike with your car, van or travel policy.

Who is Carole Nash for?+

It fits riders whose main vehicle is a motorcycle, and anyone who wants personal accident cover included rather than priced separately. Support runs on phone, chat and help centre, and claims can be opened by phone, online and app once a policy is in place.

How does the price compare with other listings?+

On premium from, this site places the brand 241 out of 251 listings. The bike figure of £257 sits well above the €8.31 median entry price, so expect to pay more for specialist motorcycle cover than for a generic entry policy.

Is there an app for claims?+

The app is used for claims, listed under phone, online and app, while everyday policy questions run through phone, chat and help centre. So if you are checking a renewal or a document before a claim, the help centre and phone line are the faster routes, and the app is there once something has already gone wrong.
