I think the quote was from my post, I have tried all the uk holiday home insurers, the problem is that I don't want building insurance it's already provided by the management company.

BancoPosta's home insurance cover is available at your local Post Office and is well documented at the following link (if you ½ûÂþÌìÌà is OK)

One feature that is worth considering is that it offers cover for subsidence and landslides, which many policies don't.
We found Direct Line's ½ûÂþÌìÌà division useful for car insurance, since they were clued-up on the concept of tranferring your UK no-claims bonus to an equivalent ½ûÂþÌìÌà one ('Bonus-malus') and they quoted a good rate from the outset.
Their web address is [url]www.directline.it[/url] and we found their capo in Italy, James, very helpful.

You will need to ask your present insurer (presumably in the UK) to write you a letter citing your present no-claims bonus and period without an accident claim.
One word about insurance in general; you seem to have to give insurers quite a lot of notice if you want to change to another company. If you just let it expire, you exisiting insurer will assume that you want the cover renewed ad-infinitum and you'll owe them money. It pays to read the small print.
