We were looked after by Russell from the BVI team in Verteuil. Russell is friend yet professional and helped us every step of the way. He is very transparent about the what to expect when viewing properties in France and made what is a difficult decision, buying in another country,...
We began our house search during the pandemic. We quickly decided Ruffec was top of our list of locations - the train to Angouleme and Poitiers, cinema, stunning church, river beach, market and beautiful walking and cycling were just what we wanted.
We found a few properties but couldn’t visit in...
...I was extremely happy with the service on both sales. As an ex estate agent myself, it would have been easy for them to leave me to do some of the 'legwork' but they didn't, and they made what was potentially an emotionally difficult process as easy and as stress...

In April 2024 we found a house for sale via FB in Pageas, Aquitaine, and we immediately felt in love with it. We were unable to visit the house physically as we live in Belgium and we did not have the time to drive there. Heather showed us around the house...
Heather supported us in the purchase of our holiday home. She provided valuable insights when looking round properties and handled the communication between all parties very quickly and transparently. We highly recommend Heather and Beaux Villages if you're looking for a wonderful property.
