The Cote d'Azur to the south east of France is ideally situated to offer a variety of pleasures to ensure a wonderful quality of life. There are some of the best resorts and beaches to choose from on the Mediterranean coast such as Nice, Cannes and Monte Carlo. The property market in the Cote d'Azur caters for all tastes and budgets and more tourists are setting up home in the areas fully aware that the property prices remain remarkably reasonable and are a sound investment.

Languedoc and Roussilon offer dramatically varied landscapes, two distinct, proud cultures - Occitan and Catalan - a tradition of hersey and steadfast rebellion and age-old customes all combine to make this a great region unmatched in its romanic associations. Now shaking off centuries of sleeping neglect, Languedoc and Roussillon are emerging as one of the most enticing parts of the country, its remote villages and little'travelled byways affording a window onto a vanishing European rural culture, and its beaches and cities offering a thrilling diversity of activity.
