Market research has shown that France is one of the top destinations in Europe for Brits. But one thing you shouldn't leave home without is a good travel insurance policy.

One provider InsureandGo offers great value policies for short breaks to extended trips that include over 40 adventure sports automatically and cover under 18s for free.

Perry Wilson, says: "Don't just rely on the E111 to cover you for your trips to France. Its regulations may mean that you can't be treated at the nearest hospital should you get injured or sick. And it certainly won't help you pay for items such as your repatriation back to the UK or an extended hotel bill."
