We found our place through;
http://www.sifex.co.uk/
Best narrow the search to an area that you like.
If you like the Dordogne area our house may be for sale this summer..........

We used www.vefuk.com - they have connections with a number of estate agents and compile a shortlist for you to see when you visit - according to your requests.

They found exactly what we were looking for. They then act as local agents for you in France and translate most of the paperwork. Not cheap, but they remove all the hassle.

Take a look around Gap, Serres and Nyons.
Much under-rated part of France.
I just sold a lovely 1791 stone cabanon there.

Me and the missus saw ours as it was in the same hamlet as my parents but I reckon taking a holiday in the area you like and popping in to some 'immobiliers' and getting some info on houses for sale in the area is a good guide as to whats in the area and what you would like. Excuse for a holiday too !!

Had our place for years but heard this is quite good recently http://fr.123immo.com/

Chatting to a few people over easter it seems a price adjustment is on the horizon, lots of optimistic pricing is being reviewed, maybe just my area, I am in the Vienne region but seems a lot on for sale and its not moving.

Buying direct from the Notaire is a good idea, try http://www.notaires.fr/notaires/notaires.nsf/V_TC_...

Have you seen the Vultures at Remouzat and the tiny village of Saint-May?
