About Abbeyfields Insurance
Our story
Abbeyfields Insurance is an independent, family‑run broker built around the simple idea that you should be able to speak to someone who understands you and your insurance needs without jumping through hoops.
We’ve spent more than 35 years helping people protect the things that matter to them, and we’ve shaped our service around real conversations, clear guidance and cover that fits the way you live and drive.
Our business was founded by husband and wife, David and Lyn, after years of working in the industry. They’d seen first‑hand how rigid processes and call centres got in the way of helping people. They created Abbeyfields as the antidote to that, a place where you can pick up the phone and speak directly to someone who knows what they’re talking about and genuinely wants to help.
Over the years, our team has grown, but our approach hasn’t changed. We’re still independent, hands‑on and focused on giving you the kind of service we’d want for ourselves.

What we do
We’re best known for our specialist vehicle insurance: Classic cars, multi‑car collections, American imports, ex‑military vehicles, kit builds, replicas and modern classics. If it’s unusual, rare or enthusiast‑owned, we’ve probably insured it. Our team has decades of experience in this world, so we understand the quirks, the passion and the pride that come with owning something special.
Alongside this, we have a dedicated team who look after commercial insurance and high‑net‑worth clients. They work closely with our vehicle specialists, giving you access to a wider range of insurance services under one roof.
How we work
We aren’t a call centre. When you call us, you get straight through to a specialist who can help you there and then. No scripts. No passing you around. Just a clear, down‑to‑earth chat about what you need and the best way to protect it.
It’s a simple approach, but it makes a big difference. You get answers quickly, your cover is shaped around your situation, and you always know who you’re dealing with.
We’re accessible, experienced and genuinely passionate about what we do. We take the time to listen, explain things clearly and act quickly when you need support, whether that’s arranging a new policy, updating your cover or helping you through a claim.
Get in touch
We’re here Monday to Friday, 9am to 5pm, ready to help you get the right cover with as little fuss as possible.
