Our verdict on each
Carole Nash
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.
Feather
Feather is a German insurer built around expats who want several kinds of cover in a single place, and it pays monthly rather than by the year. Pet cover opens from 8 weeks to under 6 years (pet entry age), and support runs on email, phone and help centre, so help is easy to reach.

Pros and cons
Carole Nash
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.
Feather
Pros
- Cover spans auto, home and life, so several policies can sit with the same company.
- Monthly payments are available, which spreads the cost across the year.
- Support runs on email, phone and help centre, so a call, an email, a chat or the help centre all work.
Cons
- Feather is an insurer, so the cover comes from Feather itself rather than a broker shopping the market for you.
- The list of cover, auto, home and life, holds no travel insurance, which matters if you have just moved abroad.
- Pet entry ages run 8 weeks to under 6 years (pet entry age), so an older pet sits outside pet cover.
Who each suits
Carole Nash
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.
Feather
Who it suits
- Expats who want auto, home and life cover arranged in a single place.
- People who prefer monthly payments to a single annual bill.
- Pet owners whose animal falls within 8 weeks to under 6 years (pet entry age).
Who should look elsewhere
- Anyone set on life cover alone can compare Linxea, which lists life.

- Borrowers weighing health and gadget cover can see Oney Préstamos ES, which lists health, life and gadget.

Questions about each
Carole Nash
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.
Feather
What kinds of insurance does Feather offer?+
Feather covers auto, home and life. Auto, home, life, health, dental, pet and income protection can all sit with the same provider, which saves you tracking a separate company for each type of cover. Health and dental sit alongside the animal and property policies rather than being sold on their own.
Can I pay monthly instead of settling the policy in one payment?+
Monthly payments are available, and monthly is the payment model Feather uses, so a policy is billed across the year rather than settled in a single payment. Ask for the monthly and annual figures side by side when you compare, so the yearly cost stays visible.
