A selection of the best Aquitaine properties on the market in 2019
Aquitaine is a large and diverse region, with an area of 41,308 square kilometres. It offers a variety of landscapes. There are dramatic gorges and rivers in the Dordogne and sand dunes and pine forests in the Landes. Then there are vineyards in Bordeaux (French properties with vineyards) and mountains in the Pyrénées-Atlantiques. The climate is typical of southern France, having lots of warm sunshine and mild winters, and the gastronomy and wine is second to none. British buyers have moved to Aquitaine in their droves, and it's clear they know a good thing when they see one.
It is perhaps hardly surprising that the Brits love Aquitaine so much. The region has a long history of links with England. When Eleanor of Aquitaine married Henry II in 1154, Aquitaine became an English territory, only reverting to French rule at the end of the Hundred Years War in 1453. So all the expatriates who have fallen so in love with Aquitaine are just following in the footsteps of their ancestors!
As Aquitaine has a glorious and diverse countryside, if you're hoping to find that dream home in the country, Aquitaine could be just the place for you. Many Brits are living the rural dream in the Dordogne, as the hit TV show "Little England" showcased (Most Popular TV Programmes about French Property). We've got several rural properties that might just hit the spot for you. But it isn't only the Dordogne that offers lovely country properties, as our selection of properties demonstrates.
Most Brits who own property in France, especially in the sunnier southern regions like Aquitaine, enjoy outdoor activities. And they cite the ability to live life outdoors as one of the best things about the lifestyle. Aquitaine has a long coastline, with fabulous sandy beaches and stunning sand dunes. The resorts of this coastline offer traditional family seaside fun, but also are a magnet for the surf crowd, who enliven the resorts all year round. (The French Atlantic Coast from Biarritz to Southern Brittany.)
If you prefer golf from surfing there are over 50 courses in Aquitaine, so you'll never be far from a chance to enjoy your sport (Best Golf Property for Sale in France). The region also appeals to all lovers of the mountains and associated activities.
No matter which Aquitaine department you choose for your new French property, you can guarantee it will be pretty easy to travel there from the UK. Ryanair, the budget airline, flies into Bergerac, Bordeaux, Biarritz and Lourdes (The Best Property For Sale near Ryanair airports in the South-west of France). If you live in the north of the region, you may also consider flying into Limoges or Poitiers. The TGV runs to several locations in Aquitaine too. Bergerac and Bordeaux are on the TGV route, and have good connections to rail networks and stations all over the region.
Although certain parts of Aquitaine are expensive, the region has many property bargains. 2019 in particular is a great year to look for property in the region, as many sellers are adopting a sensible pricing policy in line with the economic situation. And, even better, many properties have been reduced in price. So have a look at the bargain properties in Aquitaine which we have listed below:
