When purchasing my property in france ;bellac/magnac lavel area of haut vienne i was repeatedly assured that security was not a problem. That was some 3 & 1/2 years ago and to date i have been burgled 3 times. Having installed an alarm after the 2nd occasion the 3rd attempt just resulted in the damage to door and volets. My house stands alone some 300yds from a hamlet. Unfortunately due to lie of the land it cannot be seen from the hamlet. I post this so those who are about to buy are aware of the potential risks with isolated property and to ask if anybody else is experiencing this down side of owning a maison secondaire in france; particularly in the above area. Has anyone had experience of fitting alarms that have direct call system to security or the gendames office????? Any help gratefully received as i am beginning to feel a bit of a target or am i just one of many and do not know it or perhaps is paranoia setting in???????
