You're french property estate agents. Why the blog?

Fri, 04/18/2008 - 19:53

YOU would be forgiven for thinking that a blog is pointless on a website that advertises property for sale in the Dordogne.

However, at premierfrenchproperty.com, we like to think of the blog as an innovative twist to marketing property and commenting on all things France.

Traditionally, property websites took a presciptive approach to advertising. For the most part they still do.

Bergerac, a modern town with a rich history

Thu, 04/17/2008 - 15:32

If you are thinking of buying French property in the south west of the country, Bergerac is well worth including in your search. Situated in the heart of the Perigord Pourpre department, it lies on the level plains of the Dordogne.

It can be wonderful to buy and restore a house in the Dordogne, in one of the beautiful rural villages as a quiet retreat or holiday let, but if you want to enjoy the night life, a wider choice of restaurants, bars and shops, and easier access to the airport, French real estate in Bergerac could be more suitable.

Everything you ever wanted to know about a french wine label

Wed, 04/16/2008 - 14:56

AS estate agents we're often asked for our opinions and advice on not just buying french property but a host of other topics that interest people about the lifestyle in France. Of couse, a favourite topic of discussion is wine.

In this part of the country, the south of the Dordogne and north Lot-et-Garonne, there's a vineyard in almost everyone's back garden.

Some of the the best known are St Emilion, Pomerol, Sauternes and Médoc around Bordeaux.
