France is one of the few destinations which can cater for such disparate tastes, fulfilling all expectations with a wide range of activities to suit every preference. For many visitors, the vineyards of Alsace, Burgundy, the Rhone Valley, Provence or Bordeaux represent the real France, whereas 35 million tourists each year flock to the French coast which is blessed with over 1,500 miles of beaches, fringing the English Channel, the Atlantic and the Mediterranean. For those preferring a little more action, the French ski-resorts are second to none. No-one can deny the ultimate city of fashion, gastronomy and love, is Paris.

In a recent poll, France was voted the world’s best place to live. France has a good climate, unspoiled countryside, and great health care. And its capital, Paris, is arguably the world's most beautiful and romantic city. Add to all this the world-competitive infrastructure and you can understand why France is thought to be the world's best place to live. (source International Living Magazine)

Tourism in France has never been healthier with an average of over 75 million visitors each year (The world's top tourist destination), a figure which is set to rise due to an increase in the number of budget airlines offering cheaper flights from most European cities and a wider overseas clientele, guaranteeing its position as the top global destination.

Aside from the romanticised view most Francophiles have of this unique, enchanting country, the French property market has always been an attractive investment for ex-patriots due to the proximity and lack of legal restrictions. Future development is both necessary and inevitable in relation to the constant demand for good quality accommodation.
