Useful Services - A house in Brittany

This page is (still) currently under construction... - but we are getting there... so click away!...If you run a business with real Brittany or Normandy connections (it's essential that it's not competitive with us - of course) then do get in touch and we could provide links to you and vice versa and it all helps with your own SEO (it helps people find you via the Search Engines) and with ours too. Now that I've worked out how to do it... there will be more!

ferryTake the Ferry to Brittany • When you view with A House in Brittany/Normandy... For a property in Brittany we've always found that ferry travel is best. And the western Channel leaves you with fewer miles to travel on the French side. So, Portsmouth to St.Malo, Caen, Cherbourg or Plymouth Roscoff are your options.The most sensible way to travel to view...Just a couple of property viewings and you'll be joining the owner's club and beginning to recognise all those other frequent travellers... The ones who are renovating... deshevelled as they arrive at the docks covered in plaster and brick dust... just longing to get in the shower in the cabin and rejoin the human race! The ones who bought a finished up-market house... They'll be having the posh meal! Here's a page that will give you chapter and verse on departures and arrivals. And when you know where you're going click here to book with Brittany Ferries

planeAll Flight Points to and from Brittany  • Brittany Tourism has a great website in general for everything to do with exploring Brittany and all that there is to see and do...  But for us it's great too - because they've also done an excellent job of researching all of the airports out of the UK and where they fly to in Brittany - it's all laid out for you in very easy to follow fashion and, at the same time as checking flights and their details you can have a look too at all there is to see and explore throughout the peninsula... also and probably more important Brush up on the area in which your new house may be situated. Bon Voyage. 

 

th-4Everything you need to know about French Trains In Brittany • It's not often that our prospective property purchasers travel to and around Brittany by Train... There have been two I think. I wonder where they are now?! But, that's not to say you don't need to know about the possibility of nipping around by rail - You may want to have a weekend in Paris or take the train down to the South of France to see how the poor people get by without a house in Brittany. Once again this is all courtesy of Brittany Tourism... a fine website indeed! 

 

car-stickerSurvive France Network • It is what it says on the tin!.. A Network of ex-pats - but, in practise, a whole lot more...  Social Networking, of course, but in a cosier and more purposeful way. It's International but most of SFN members are Ex-UK and are surviving in France with a little help from their friends on-line. When you are signed in there's a chance to ask questions, offer answers and solutions to well worn and sometimes 'left field' problems... to make recommendations - discuss the odd dichotomy... get creative within arts and design fields.  A place to find inspiration and somewhere you might also inspire others. It's by ex pats - for ex pats - Initially it's an opportunity to learn from those who have trodden the path ahead of you. You can also promote your business to the Ex-Pat market in France... Warning: SFN can be habit forming!

wowbedFrench Cottage Inspired Living  Since well before we bought our own house in Brittany we would respond to every 'French' itch with a scratch around the lanes, villages and towns of Sussex - wherever there are Antique outlets, Reclamation yards and Brocantes (yes, I did say Sussex...!) Lewes, Arundel, Chichester, Billingshurst, Horsham, Storrington, Steyning... West Chiltington... That's right... Just recently we were winding our way towards the church where we were married in 1970 - just for 'a walk down memory lane'... I had noticed that we had been followed for 3 miles by the same car and it even turned right into the lane where the church is so, in order to let the car pass, I pulled off but it didn't pass - it just drew level and stopped. Tina White (for 'twas she) rolled her window down and asked us what our vinyl sticker on the back of our truck... 'A House in Brittany - from Ooh and Ahh to Ooh-la-lah' was all about? Why? Because Tina runs her own French related business...Take a look at her Facebook Page... French Cottage Inspired Living
