Host & Everything Else

Here at Spice your health, safety and wellbeing are of paramount importance. Whether travelling on holiday or attending Spice weekends away, in the UK or overseas - it is always advisable to have adequate travel insurance in case of emergency, cancellation, etc.

Travel insurance is an important aspect to booking a weekend or holiday, giving you protection against unforeseen circumstances that could otherwise spoil your trip. We also strongly encourage the need for a personal travel insurance policy that includes Covid 19 cover.

While we cannot recommend specific insurance policies as everyone’s requirements are personal to them, Spice have linked up with market leader Staysure Travel Insurance which you may like to take a look at.

What You Say - Edinburgh Festival Weekend ‘Thanks Jamie for a FAB weekend, really enjoyed the entertainment and eating out in some lovely restaurants. Don't think the weekend could be any better with the sun all over Edinburgh! Pauline

Jamie - thanks for making me feel part of the group. I have only been a member of SPICE since March, I have done a lot since I joined and found it a really great group of people to be associated with. Looking forward to new year - Will I Am
