The strength of the local market rests, as ever, in Location, Location, Location (sorry Kirsty and Phil). Properties close to the coast, or in the centre of beautiful medieval Bayeux have always commanded a premium and, in spite of the current economic gloom, continue to have the edge when it comes to supply and demand.
If so, look no further. France4U is an established, family run company and can offer a wealth of nearly 15 years holiday home and holiday letting experience and related services that are a must for successful maintenance of your new or existing gite, cottage, apartment, manor or farmhouse.
Camembert, cider, charming fishing ports and sheltered bays are just a few of Normandy’s star attractions. Yet, for those with a passion for history, not to mention war stories, a tour of Normandy’s famous D-Day landing beaches offers a seaside break with a difference.

2007 saw the property market slow down in France and Normandy was no exception. But whilst some property prices dropped, others actually rose. It’s all about location... and price.
This charming old Normandy stone farmhouse completely renovated to a very high standard is currently on the market together with a superbly converted and fully fitted cottage to sleep 8-10 for €370,000. Located just 10km from Saint-Lô in the delightful department of Manche, it is easily accessible from ports at Caen and Cherbourg alike. Not to be missed.
