In this edition, our spotlight shifts slightly and refocuses on the Limousin and the area around the city of Limoges. Rural Limousin is a landscape of rolling countryside and agriculture contrasted with an upland forested area and dissected by many river valleys. Tranquillity, open space and freedom all spring to mind as you tour this charming region that has played such an important part in France’s long and often dramatic history.
We meet a Dutch couple who decided to take the leap and emigrate to France and the local area; we explore the old Roman city of Limoges, now perhaps best known for its porcelain pottery; we visit a renovated farmhouse with a lot more potential for someone who is looking for a future income stream, and we take a trip into the kitchen to make one of the famous desserts that adorn the region’s tables.
FOR YOU
Spring edition 2021
Happy New Year and welcome to the first of our 2021 newsletters.
In this edition, you will find lots of information about places to explore in the area to the west of Dijon. We have some recommendations too for eating out and experiencing the local ambience. There’s news of a family who recently made the move and now enjoying life in this great region of France. And if one of your resolutions for the New Year is to do more, our newsletter is full of ideas on how to enjoy life the Burgundy way!
In this edition, we continue our look at what it is like to buy and live in Burgundy, and we make some suggestions for places to visit and soak up the culture and heritage of this beautiful and historic region of France. In Burgundy, we believe that wine makes a symphony of a good meal and so there are recommendations too for eating out, and sampling wines from the local area.
