About Castle Cover

Castle Cover is an over 50s insurance specialist based in Poole, Dorset in the United Kingdom. Founded in 2006, we now have over 280,000 policyholders and a 300 strong workforce.

We specialise in home insurance, car insurance, travel insurance, pet insurance and caravan insurance. Because we believe that the over 50s group is generally ‘low-risk’, we are able to negotiate competitive prices with our insurers, meaning you benefit from comprehensive cover at an affordable price.

We work with a selection of reputable insurers, including AXA, RSA, Ageas and Legal & General, so you can rest assured you will be in safe hands. We are an appointed representative of RIAS plc, who is authorised and regulated by the Financial Services Authority.

Our offices and call centres are located in the UK. We are a part of Ageas (UK) Limited, and are authorised and regulated by the Financial Services Authority (FSA).
