apartment/small cottage

Hi we have owned a house in France for over seven years and now live in the Vendee.

For a whole host of reasons would wish to move back to the UK where we still own a house but at the same time retain a holiday home here in France.

Ideally it would be on the opposite coastline to Flaminville or the coast line around Quistreham or Trouville direction for then we could easily use Cherbourg Caen or Le Havre. This is important for I am getting older an a recent journey in the rain from St Malo crossing the bridge at Nante was somewhat worrying so trying to balance future needs at the same time with expected abilities!

To be fair this is not an immediate issue but wondered if anyone has either something for sale (but please not isolated for we did that for three years) or has seen new a new apartment development somewhere. 

We could buy relatively soon but as we say it is medium term as in later this year and which would be more favourable to us.

Have you considered leaseback?  There are a few developments on the Normandy coast - have a look here

I have no links with this website, apart from using it to search for potential leaseback properties. We are considering one so that we can have an income AND holidays with none of the hassle of remote property ownership.

Good luck with your search and move.

PS Ignore the first property on the list, somebody obviously posted it in the wrong region.
