Grobbo Posted March 8, 2004 Share Posted March 8, 2004 After settling on the Dordogne as our ideal place to be, my wife and I are due out in a few weeks for house hunting etc.However, we have heard from a few people that the Lot-et-garonne is a beautiful place and well worth a look.As I work in the building industry we feel that the Lot area may be a bit too quiet.Any thoughts,advice would be greatly appreciated.

Colombier Posted March 8, 2004 Share Posted March 8, 2004 My in-laws have a place in Dordogne so know that area well and thought we would probably settle there when we came out here but ended up buying a place in Lot et Garonne. I don't feel that it's much quieter here but it depends on what you mean. Can't comment on the Lot as don't know it very well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig McGinty Posted March 9, 2004 Share Posted March 9, 2004 HiThe Lot et Garonne is a very large department and there is always plenty of things to be doing.Search on town names in Google and you will be able to browse mairie sites and local organisations.Kind regardsCraig McGintyLiving life the French way...http://www.thisfrenchlife.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
