The heart of the Haute Vienne Region is the town of Limoges

If you are considering buying a a house in France then you could do a lot worse then buying one in the beautiful town of Limoges which is right in the heart of the Haute Vienne Province of France, says Dave of www.hauteviennehideaways.com. The town has an overall population of about 150,000 which includes a large number of students.

This province used to be quite remote but now thanks to the City's airport the whole of the Haute Vienne and the entire Limousin region is now very much reachable by low cost airlines. Low cost airlines fly into Limoges from Liverpool, East Midlands, and Stanstead and we hear a Luton service may be starting soon as well. Any part of the province is only a maximum of 45 minutes away from the airport.

The influx of new visitors and tourists has had a booming effect on the economy of the town. There are a wide selection of restaurants and bars and business is booming for the traditional porcelain shops.

If you are considering buying property in the town please be aware that prices for Limoges houses are more expensive than the rest of the Haute Vienne. Small towns and villages such as Le Dorat, Bellac, and Saint-Junien maybe better options if you are interested in a more sleepy way of life as typically, those that buy in the region are looking for a quiet life. The region is popular with Britains looking for retirement homes. However, there are really a mixture of people coming to the region from youngsters looking to get onto the career ladder to people just about to retire.

There is some great tit bit of information if you are looking to 'working from home' ,as Limoges is tipped to become a 'cyber centre' and the communications infrastrucure will be 21st century.

The region is ideal for country activities as there is an abundanceof rivers and streams, rich countryside, scenic walks, nature watching and days can be spent exploring chateaux, churches and historic medieval architecture.

A word of warning though as winter can be very quiet in the region, so the province may only be suitable for some people looking for summer holiday homes.

If you are property renovator then the Haute Vienne could be what you need as there are there are plenty of properties to be found that are in need of some restoration. If you are looking for a refurbishment project you will easily find something in the Haute Vienne Region of France.
