About 10 years ago we were sent some info from a company that
specialised in garden insurance. It was a dead loss - they basically
would insure furniture only if you locked it in a shed between use.

Remember to use all alternative methods to protect your stuff - carve
your postcode into the legs of tables and chairs, and somewhere discreet
on the water feature. Tables can be chained to something solid, or to a
concrete block buried in the ground.

We even had a water butt stolen, so I have those postcoded now.

The message
from "hendo2002" contains these words:

Saga contents policy covers garden furniture, barbecues etc against
theft, up to £500 as standard,, and for a £25 addition will include
plants, rockeries etc to losses of £1000.
I can thoroughly recommend Saga for service, price and cover. They only
deal with over-50's, though.

you may be able to add it to your House Insurance but best bet is high
fences and locked gates and lots of pyracantha on the boundaries
