A British couple who chose to buy a Brittany property and move there from London have said the fall in the value of the pound has not prevented their change of lifestyle being a successful one.
Tracy Harris and Frank Maximillian told the Daily Mail that "life is simpler, safer and calmer" in Brittany, where the couple now reside in the village of Evran after selling their house in Putney.
Ms Harris stated that despite the depreciation of sterling, the couple are not worse off.
Examples of cheaper living costs noted by the news provider include local government taxation being up to 90 per cent less than council tax while including the cost of a television licence, in addition to which there is no road tax.
Such considerations may be of interest to those thinking of buying a Brittany property.
Brittany property has also been recommended as a good prospect for holiday lettings.
Managing director of investor portal BuyAbroad.com John Reilly commented recently: "In places like Brittany and down towards the south coast, you are always going to get good rental in the summer."
