European Best Destinations (EBD) has realised its annual list of “Best Hidden Gems in Europe”. In the top twelve, three beautiful French locations are listed. So, why did they make the list and could they be good choices for your property purchase?
It is the dream of many of us to buy a beautiful French rural property with some land, not least because property is just so much cheaper in France than in the UK. However, if it is your intention to buy a property with land, you need to learn a little about “Safer”.
