Living in France full time, with a relation in the U.K. who has passed away resulting in our inheriting money etc., Having paid the U.K. inheritance tax ( if any ) is it also subject to French inheritance taxes?

Another point of information that I have not seen given, is that when you hand over your driving licence, you are given a sheet of paper advising that your driving licence has been applied for, just incase you are stopped by police etc.,

We own a lake which we purchased as "private ownership" and for the past 10 years have operated accordingly We have recently been told by the persons who sold us the property that this was because their ancestors purchased same before 1910. We would like to find the deeds when this purchase took place as we are looking to sell our total property including the lake ( 7 hectare ). Who and where would I approach to obtain this informtion from ?

Just in case the message I placed in the " Swimming Pool Regulations " prior to this message is missed, where Andrew states tht Gite owners are classified as public pools and have regular inspections. I am placing a separate question: Could any of you ou there confirm either way if you do or do-not have your pools inspected.

Hi Andrew, I am a bit confused with your comments. Are you saying that all of us 1000's of Gite owners with swimming pools are classified as having " Public pools " and will be having regular inspections?????
We have a Gite, We have a Pool which our clients use, We do not let the general public use it, Todate 2 years after having the pool installed : NO !! one has come to inspect it at any time let alone : regular inspections. May I ask any other Gite owners if they have regular inspections of their pool ?

We live 20 mins South of Montlucon ( L'Allier ) bordering the Puy de Dome. Have about 100 paperbacks ready to swap with and a further 30 to 40 waiting to be read. I clear a book about 1 a week.

Could I add another question: what charges ie ( euros ) per hour? Obviously this is aimed at those who use outside management.

We direct our lets towards couples as they do not lend to more people and there seems to be quite a few couples out there satisfied with what we offer. Providing you give them a well furnished, clean !! and attractive accommodation it should work out for you. BUT !! and it is a big but : one can never guarantee how many lets you will be able to encourage irrespective of the size of the Gite you are offering

Perhaps you should "up sticks" and move into our area: Puy de Dome bordering L'Allier where our two daughters, husbands and children ( All under 44 ) have many many friends ( Brits and French ) all under 44. We live 20 klm South Of Montlucon

Good morning Catherine, Thank you for your reply to my question. Have viewed your web site with interest but it is not fully what we are looking for ie ; more people, New Years Eve celabration with music and perhaps a chance to take off " Strictly come dancing " We have put your details onto our favourites, as we do like to visit other parts of France and your details appeal to us.
Regards Les Favets
p.s. Are you participating in the Art section of this forum?

Oh dear Oh dear Oh dear !!!!!! Where do they keep coming out from ?

What a pity I seem to have missed the boat in one reply and will have to keep my eye open for next years possibility with another and you hit the nail on the head Coco, we didn't want to be alone for New Years Eve it would not be natural . Thank you for all your replies and hope that someone else comes on site to add their suggestions

I can not believe that under this heading " Hotel and Restaurant owners " that I have not had more replies to my " New Years Eve " question , under another heading below. I have also tried through several other web-sites sending out about 30 equiries, only to have received five replies. Is it : that in France they don't celebrate New Years Eve as in the U.K. ?

Hi!! To you both, It is all this french language that seems to be taking over my life. I meant by: official !! One that was being organised by either gite, Hotel or B&B , ownwers, rather then friends or local villagers coming together just for the night. We have had one being offered which falls in line with this ie; An English club that organises social functions throughout the year are having a sing along and later dancing on the evening and have invited us ( Through the net ) to join them but there is no accommodation being offered.
At the moment there is only my wife and myself although we have had 2 other couples who are friends who have shown interest.

Finding if difficult to trace any one organising an official New Years Eve 2 to 3 day holiday break for potential clients. If any one out there is doing so, would be pleased to hear about it

U.K. Inheritance ! Is it liable to French taxes?
in French Legal Issues

So if the money is given to the beneficiaries in accordance to the will, does that then come under the heading of a gift and not subject to inheritance tax ?
