Going back to school…

After the everlasting summer break, it is ‘rentrée scolaire’ in France, when the schools open again for the new academic year. Thinking of making a fresh start? These ones are best in class…

This cracking little three-bedroom house in Brittany’s Finistere is close to everything you might need, including primary and secondary schools just 350m away.

Close to both a creche and a secondary school, this three-bedroom house in the Dordogne with above-ground pool and large garden would be a perfect family home.

How cute is this? A chocolate-box cottage in the Loire Valley with walled garden, it is located in a village with primary school (and is a lesson in how far your money goes in this popular area).
